I've owned this for 2 years and here's what I'll say. Anyone who says it doesn't have good reliability, does not know how to properly drive a car. The brakes and handling have literally saved my life twice because of how responsive it can be. You can get up to 28 mpg city. Interior is my favorite part. It's just lovely to drive for what it is.

Hector O I heard a while ago they were considering it. They primarily use red in the Dodge products and blue in the Chrysler products. I'm a big fan of red and I owned a 2013 Dart and the red looked sick in that car at night! I also had a black and red interior so it matched perfectly even though it was a white exterior. It was a Rallye though so it had the blacked out headlamps, grille, and even the 17" hyperblack wheels so the whole package really worked.

The ONLY trouble I've ever had was a park position sensor in the transmission. The interior looks incredible and like it has never been sat in. Oh and the stock exhaust note is wonderful. I can hear the turbo spool and re-circ and occasionally the exhaust will crackle with spirited driving. Its not fast but it is a real joy to drive. Its a car with a lot of personality. I believe it is one of the most underrated and underappreciated cars of the day.

They've gone under a lot of change recently and I give them credit for the products they've been putting out. Hopefully the Dart SRT is on it's way and if it's anything like it's big brothers but in a smaller package, I'm sure it will be worth the wait!

mhtube01 I think they are going to make the Dart into the Chrysler 100 next year when they refresh it. And then the Dart will be the hatchback Alfa that we've seen in the spy shots. Then later that year the Avenger RWD will be the mid size that is missing now. They trademarked the Hornet name last year. The best years for FCA have already started rolling. Dart,Cherokee,200 were just the beginning.
@mhtube019 жыл бұрын
wiibaron I heard about the Chrysler 100 but I was thinking it would share the same chassis and everything as the Dart but probably have a little softer suspension and a Chrysler body of course. However they would keep the Dart around, especially since it's been selling well. I thought they were getting rid of the Avenger for good but if they are bringing back a midsize, the Hornet name could be used for it. They've been doing so well lately so I'm looking forward to seeing where they're going with everything!

I was planning on buying a 2015 Ford Focus. A very trusted Service Manager suggested I test drive a Dart SXT Rallye. I did, as well as a Focus, Cruze, Mazda 3, and Toyota. I bought the Dart. This is the first Dodge car I have owned. I have been amazed at the thought that went into this car. There is storage everywhere. Well thought out interior. The 6 speed automatic teamed with the 1.4 turbo has great acceleration. I average 41 MPG on 55 mph highways and 38 on 75 mph highways. Great fuel economy day in and day out. I drive 1500 miles a week so fuel economy and comfort are a must. I like sporty performance as well. I have had true performance cars that did not handle as well as this! It has a very quiet ride even on rough roads. The stock stereo is awesome. It has great traction on slick wet roads even in very heavy downpours. I have had it in light snow once, and it was very surefooted. I have found nothing to criticize in this vehicle. This was the first collaboration between Fiat and Dodge; they did a remarkable job with this car!

Lol the hate is real on here apparently. I love the dart! I have one and it's been an absolute amazing car. I am part of quite a few car communities and the dart community is huge. It's far more than just another car. Personally I think it's the best car in it's class, as I did test drive all the competition and the Dart stood out over the rest. While sure we aren't pushing ST numbers, or GTI, or SI stock. But there are quite a few vendors out there that can make these things bad ass. The turbo versions share the same engine from the abarth, and with that they can be pushed up to hot hatch and some of those entry level sport cars numbers. And still coming in at a lower price point after all the mods. The styling is great on the upper trims. The sxt with those wheels are awkward, and it doesn't look as aggressive without some of the Mopar parts that are available.Awesome review! If the srt4 Dart is released, which is pushing over STi numbers rumored, then the talk about this car will probably change.

Huge fan of the channel so this is all constructive criticism: I know these are press cars, which is a privilege in itself, and companies that give them to you will not continuously give more cars if you bash them but I fee like they can use a little more criticism. Also this isn't a sports car so it's more practical and won't be as many negatives but the only interior negative was that the seats needed more bolstering and it's a little dodge mini sedan. It could just be that the car is actually pretty good on the interior but it could use a little more criticism. Same thing for when you did the Chevy pickup they were like 1 or 2 interior problems. Also I think for every video you should include the base price and price as tested which is super helpful and saves people from looking this stuff up.

+ClassicFIHD It's not an Italian car. It was designed and engineered in the U.S. by Chrysler and uses a chassis (CUSW) designed for the American market. The company is owned by FCA which is a merged company based in The Netherlands comprised of Fiat, Chrysler, Maserati, Ferrari, and Alpha Romeo, as well as some industrial divisions. You really should research before you spew your "knowledge"

ramsport47 DOH! The Chassis is a modified Alpha Romeo Giulietta! The A laser-brazed roof joint are also from the Giulietta! Why don't you try doing some research! Not to mention Fiat is ITALIAN! www.motortrend.com/news/2012-detroit-auto-show-2013-dodge-dart/

+ClassicFIHD I'm sorry...I thought you knew...the company is not Fiat any longer...Fiat is a DIVISION of FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) which is headquartered in HOLLAND and Auburn Hills Michigan.

I just paid off my 2015 sxt with the 6 speed standard and the ralleye trim this morning. After 3 years I really dig the car. It looks good, drives fun, and the only issue I’ve had was the parking break needs to be tightened up. I have no illusions that it’s a sports car but I did have one incident when driving to the airport in Denver. A deer ran across the road out of nowhere at 80 mph and I had to evade very aggressively. I managed to dodge the deer but in that split second I was afraid we might roll after I straightened it out. Stuck to the road like glue, left, right, back in my lane and stable. There was a semi in front of me and the deer tried to double back while it was crossing and fell down. I think I heard a clatter of hooves hitting my right rear fender but no damage

+TheGetawayer Dodge originally came out with more manuals than auto's when it first came out, thinking people wanted a fun little car, but people wanted the auto and they had to wait for them, and Dodge had trouble getting rid of all the manuals. Further evidence of the pussification of the USA.

Can anyone provide any insight on both the reliability and repairability/parts cost of the Dart? I was hoping it would be at least on par with my Ford Focus ZX3.

I actually like the Dodge Dart a lot. I test drove the 6 speed manual one and it drove very well. I was surprised at how long the clutch lasted in just coasting mode through the dealership lot and it even got over speed bumps using just the clutch with no gas, which was another very impressive thing about the car. that radio looks like setting and accessing presets might take some getting used to, but I probably won't take long. but yes a very good car indeed for the price and body style which I love greatly. I 'm definitely going to put one on my list of manual cars to look at for future buying when my current '05 Sentra starts giving out or gets close to 170,000 miles.

Had a Dart SXT as a rental not too long ago, I've got to say not a bad car at all. I think for Dodge to be a bit more competitive they should lower the price significantly. I mean $20k ish for an SXT (w/ taxes and all fees) is kind of ridiculous. 10 years ago I couldn't imagine paying that kind of money for a Neon successor. Times have changed though, so oh well. Still a nice car.

I was driving an 09 Chevy Cobalt Coupe which I had to add an Eibach rear sway bar & upgraded the tires & wheels. My new (used) 2016 SXT easily out handles the Chevy & much better performance. The 2.4 engine is very responsive. I know it's not a muscle car but having been raised in the 50's where V-8 cars took 10-12 seconds to get to 60, this thing is just fine for me.
