Alfa Romeo Giulietta overseas, transforms into the Dodge Dart, a compact sedan that revives the spirit of the old Neon and promises a 9 speed automatic transmission.

Detroit Auto Show 2012 is the place chosen by Dodge to present their new compact sedan class. In recent years, segment C was not a very comfortable place for American brand, that has failed to impose its own market with the unusual Caliber, much less in Europe.

Visually, the new approach aims Dodge Dart Sport, which is valid for the basic version, SE, as well as superior equipment levels: SXT, Rallye, Limited and R / T. It is pleasantly surprised by the “angry” front look headlight and the hood raised, with a rib placed in the middle.

At the rear, Dodge Challenger fans will feel excited due to the continuous headlamps equipped with LED’s. Boot lid spoiler has a simulated form and the double exhaust induce a feeling for the true sports sedan, just as the Dodge Neon and SRT4 venerable spirit.
