2007 Dodge Caliber SRT-4

Simon Elliott, Managing Director of Chrysler Group said: "The SRT-4 has been developed by Chrysler Group’s ‘Street Race Technology’ performance division. All SRT vehicles feature unique exterior details, lowered sports suspension, sports interior and a powerful engine - the all-new 2.4-litre turbocharged engine boasts a tyre-smoking 300 horsepower to deliver a level of power you’d expect from a V8!"

The SRT-4 is a performance version of the Dodge Caliber and offers 260 lb. ft. of torque from a 2.4-litre turbocharged engine to reach 0-60 mph in less than 6 seconds.

Under 6 sec? No word on if this is AWD or FWD.
I forsee the price of this....thing reaching in the mid 20's on FWD. I think the days of the street sleeper SRT4 Neons are gone.

I'm probably one of the bigger dodge advocates, but that thing looks like a neon rear ended a minivan and pushed it into a durango.

I dunno, there seems to be very little info. Thats all I got from GMI and the guy who posted the info. Based on the lingo of "tyers" I assume this was shown at Geneva, and not in Chicago.

Good call, deffinatly has a T-Rex vibe.
300hp, thats pretty deep. Time for GM to start putting VVT in the 2.0T motor, or DI'ing the 2.4 and adding a turbo.
The thing looks like a tank, but everything from Dodge/Chyrsler looks like a tank.

The SRT4 guy I work with says that they wanted to keep it FWD to keep the price down. AWD Calibers are reaching way over into teh 20's loaded.
