2008-2012 Dodge Caliber
Compact Hatchback
The Dodge Caliber is a five-person, five-door hatchback that feels larger than its compact size. Inside it felt like a larger vehicle by offering good rear legroom and raising the driver's seat to allow him/her to literally look down on other vehicles. Value pricing when it was new should make from some good deals on the pre-owned market. All-wheel drive models were produced but sometime tough to find today.
