Caliberforums.com is dishing the dirt on the new Caliber SRT-4, and they don’t seem too pleased. Forum member Ironside happened upon a 2008 model guide while visiting a local Dodge dealer and when he flipped through the book, he spotted the SRT specs and pics. He even photocopied the pages and posted them for proof. Many forum members seem to be let down, as the promised 300 hp is apparently not gonna happen. Here are the posted specs and a few comments:
- 2.4L DOHC 16V Dual VVT 4-cylinder intercooled/turbocharged World Engine with 280hp @ 6000-6400rpm, 260 lb-ft torque @ 200-5600rpm.
- 0-60mph = 6.2 seconds
- 1/4 mile = 14.6 seconds
- Top speed = 157mph
- The SRT-4 will have a choice of two different 19″ 5-spoke rims, the painted ones like on current SRT’s, and the chrome ones.
- Final colours that are offered are brilliant black, sunburst orange, bright silver and inferno red (So no new colours like we’d hoped for the SRT).
- The front driver seat FOLDS FLAT.
- NO MyGIG.
- ***NEW INTERIOR*** Offered in what they call a “new completely dark slate grey” (huge improvement from the sound of it).
Thanks for the tip, Jim!
