2007 Dodge CALIBER
One look at its squared-up, broad-shouldered stance and you will know that this one is undoubtedly different. You don’t want to meet this car in the playground after school. This is a car that won’t be bullied.

CVT2 AND DUAL VVT. BECAUSE LIFE IS FULL OF VARIABLES.
Just because you can’t get excited about varying the working diameters of pulleys in a transaxle doesn’t prevent the gearheads at the Chrysler Group from getting wildly worked up. Why? Because the latest generation Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT2) in Caliber is the first ever offered in any of their vehicles. In the case of Caliber, the benefits outweigh the historic significance. Caliber owners will appreciate the advantages of a transmission’s continuously variable ratio in the form of improved drivability, performance, NVH (that’s white shirt for Noise, Vibration and Harshness) and about 8 percent better fuel economy.* EPA estimated 26 city/30 highway mpg with 2.0-liter engine and CVT2.
*Combined EPA city/highway fuel economy of Caliber’s 2.0L engine with CVT2 (28 mpg) compared to Dodge’s comparable four-speed automatic transaxle.
When was the last time you had an electronically controlled coupling? A first for any Chrysler Group passenger car, Caliber R/T AWD hits the scene with an electronically controlled all-wheel-drive system with variable torque output. Without so much as a hint of driver input, Caliber’s system seamlessly transfers power to assist any wheel in need. In doing so, the AWD system benefits both straight-line traction and cornering stability.
THIS INSIDE IS TRICKED OUT
A. NEVER BIN BETTER. The available Chill ZoneTM beverage storage bin features a contoured mat to hold four cans, four 20-oz. bottles or any combination of snacks and such. It maintains already chilled items at about 45° Fahrenheit.
B. A BRIGHT IDEA. SERIOUSLY. This available removable and rechargeable flashlight is incorporated into the headliner of Caliber’s rear cargo area. Its batteries are recharged when the flashlight is returned to its cradle.
C. LIGHTED SOCKETS. There are two electroluminescent cup holders between Caliber’s front seats that emit a muted blue light when lit.
D. THIS CRADLE WILL ROCK. Caliber’s center console features an adjustable armrest that slides forward and flips open to reveal a rubber-lined MP3 cradle. It was designed to hold MP3 players, cell phones, or PDAs, keeping them within easy reach of the available 115-volt two-pronged outlet, a standard 12-volt power outlet or the input jack on the face of the Caliber stereo system’s head unit.
E. THE 2,966-POUND BOOMBOX. The available MusicGate PowerTM 458-watt Boston Acoustics® 9-speaker sound system (including a subwoofer built into the rear cargo area) features speakers that swing down from the rear liftgate when open.
F. PACKED WITH MORE THAN FEATURES. With exceptional room and outstanding flexibility, Caliber’s inventive interior can also handle serious hauling..
