Five-door versatility

This versatile five-door is your partner when it's time for shopping, vacations and getting away for the day. Pop open the rear liftgate and stow cargo like you never could in a sedan. Fold the second row down for easy transport of the big stuff. Seats up and it's time to pick up friends for a night on the town.

  • Variable height seating for the driver
  • Fold-flat seating
  • Available second-row reclining seats
  • Heated front seats

Choosing seating fabrics in Caliber is like playing interior decorator with a full range of looks, from Premium cloth or sophisticated leather trim, to a Sport Appearance Interior that amps up Caliber seating with color-keyed inserts.

Storage

Look inside every one of its five doors and you'll see the effects of the extraordinary effort to maximize storage throughout Dodge Caliber.

  •  - 60 / 40 split-folding rear seats that fold forward
  •  - Fold-flat front passenger seat
  •  - Handy door bins
  •  - Instrument panel storage
  •  - Roomy center console
  •  - 250-pound capacity cargo floor storage with removable and washable liner
From daily-use cubbies for the little things to a flat load floor for the big stuff, this versatile machine does not disappoint

Wheels

Dodge Caliber is the kind of vehicle that turns heads; it's smart looking, but it's all attitude. And all of the available wheels contribute to its unique curb appeal. There are several eye-catching options from which to choose.

Uconnect? System

The Uconnect? System[1] is Dodge's user-friendly approach to today's connected technology. From music to travel destinations, Uconnect connects you to the things that matter most. Leave it to Uconnect to make technology simple.

VIP Award
Call It "Web Praise"

Install some game-changing technology in your vehicle - and people will notice. We're proud to announce that Uconnect? Web[2] won the 2009 VIP (Very Innovative Product) Award from the Good Housekeeping Research Institute.


    Multimedia

    Its looks alone will turn enough heads, but when you factor in the power of its sound, Caliber will downright cause a scene.

    Roll with Caliber's available 458-watt Boston Acoustics® nine-speaker MusicGate Power® sound system with subwoofer:

     - The ultimate in surround sound
     - Rear articulating speakers swing down from the opened liftgate when the vehicle is in park
     - Digital Signal Processing, the sound is so clean it will be impossible to ever settle for anything less

    The Uconnect? System[1] offers SIRIUS Satellite Radio with uninterrupted cross-country digital-quality entertainment, including 69 channels of 100-percent commercial-free music, plus sports, news, talk, entertainment, traffic, and weather. SIRIUS is the official satellite radio partner of the NFL, NBA, and NHL. With the first year of service provided by Dodge, you'll agree that this is one option you really have to listen to.

    Conveniences

    When thirst calls, the available Chill Zone® cooled beverage storage bin keeps four chilled 20-ounce bottles or cans at the ready. And set them where you can see them, in the illuminated cup holders located up front.

    LED flashlight

    The brightly lit available rear cargo area lamp performs double duty as a removable, rechargable LED flashlight.


    Heated Mirrors

    Tired of scraping snow of your mirrors?  Just press a button and Caliber's heated mirrors can help defrost your mirrors in seconds, allowing you a clear view without stepping outside.

    Climate Control
    Climate Control

    Caliber's available automatic temperature control eliminates the back and forth of trying to regulate the cabin temperature. Simply turn the knob to the desired temperature and let Caliber do the rest.

     

    Powertrain

    It's the combination of these powerful engines and the advanced engineering of its transmission offerings that make Caliber more than just a pretty face. This spirited machine can turn the everyday driver into a gearhead as they experience a whole new kind of acceleration and exceptionally smooth power.

    Both the 2.4-liter World Engine and the 2.0-liter DOHC16-valve engine are paired with transmissions that together deliver excellent driving characteristics that far exceed expectation. In fact, the 2.0L engine delivers 31 mpg hwy. How's that for exceeding expectations?

    Transmissions

    State-of-the-art refinement in transmission technology comes with the available second-generation Continuously Variable Transaxle (CVT2) that uses a system of belts and pulleys instead of gears for smooth, efficient driving performance.

    Handling

    Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to assist drivers in maintaining control of their vehicle during extreme steering maneuvers. ESC senses when a vehicle is starting to spin (oversteer) or plow (understeer), and attempts to correct the vehicle's course by automatically controlling the throttle and applying the brakes at individual wheels. The control you'll feel is astonishing.

    An important aspect of ESC, Caliber's traction control system is tuned for on-road activity during normal operation. When wheel spin occurs, the system maintains traction by applying the brakes and in some cases closing the throttle, to minimize spin during acceleration.

    Warranty

    We're confident in our vehicles and we're backing them with a new 5-year / 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty. The powertrain limited warranty covers the cost of all parts and labor needed to repair a covered powertrain component - engine, transmission and drive system - on most new Dodge, Jeep® and Chrysler vehicles. Coverage now also includes free towing to the nearest Dodge, Jeep® or Chrysler dealer, if necessary. The warranty is transferable too, so if you sell your vehicle during the warranty period, the new owner will still be covered.

    Plus, our 3-year / 36,000-mile Basic Limited Warranty provides bumper-to-bumper coverage for your vehicle, from the body to the electrical system.

    Protection

    Dodge Caliber looks like it has nothing but playtime on its mind, but don't be fooled, it has a serious side as well. So serious, that the 2010 Caliber earned Five-Star government frontal and side-impact crash test ratings.

    For your protection, Caliber is equipped with:

    • Standard advanced multistage airbags for the driver and front passenger
    • A driver knee blocker airbag
    • Supplemental side-curtain airbags
    • Available side-seat airbags

    In addition, a combination of strengthened materials and engineered crush zones - portions of the structure that have been designed to divert and dissipate energy in the event of impact- helps Dodge Caliber protect its precious cargo; family and friends. 

    Accident Avoidance

    The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to assist drivers in maintaining control of their vehicle during extreme steering maneuvers. ESC senses when a vehicle is starting to spin (oversteer) or plow (understeer), and attempts to correct the vehicle's course by automatically controlling the throttle and applying the brakes at individual wheels. The control you'll feel is astonishing.

    An important aspect of ESC, Caliber's traction control system is tuned for on-road activity during normal operation. When wheel spin occurs, the system maintains traction by applying the brakes and in some cases closing the throttle, to minimize spin during acceleration.
