Chrysler Dodge Avenger 2012, Avenger 2012 Specfications

DODGE AVENGER

If there’s one thing to like about Dodge Avenger, it’s simply everything. Comfort? The recently redesigned interior earns nods of approval
for comfortably seating five occupants. Performance is two-fold: the application of the most powerful and efficient V6 in Chrysler history —
the 3.6-liter Pentastar
dry clutch automatic transmission, with its super-high torque capacity, lightweight compact design, and impressive fuel consumption
savings: 6-10 percent less than conventional transmissions. With the comprehensive Electronic Stability Control system (ESC)
standard on every fleet model, the 2012 Dodge Avenger addresses capability, fuel economy (up to 30 mpg) and outstanding safety and
security. This is, in every way, a truly smart solution to your mid-size sedan fleet requirements.

If you decide to continue your SiriusXM service at the end of your complimentary trial, the plan you choose will automatically renew and bill at then-current rates until you call SiriusXM at

Always sit properly with the head restraint properly adjusted. Never place anything in front of the head restraint.

(4)

Always sit properly with the seat belt fastened. Children 12 and under should always be in a backseat correctly using an infant or child restraint system or with the seat belt positioned correctly
for the child’s age and weight.

(5)

No system, no matter how sophisticated, can repeal the laws of physics or overcome careless driving actions. Performance is limited by available traction, which snow, ice, and other conditions
can affect. When the ESC warning lamp in the speedometer flashes, the driver needs to use less throttle and adapt speed and driving behavior to prevailing conditions. Always drive carefully,
consistent with conditions. Always use your seat belt.
