The Dodge SX 2.0, produced from 2005 to 2008, was a compact car marketed by Chrysler's Dodge brand specifically for the South American market. It was essentially a rebadged and slightly restyled version of the Mitsubishi Lancer, a popular compact car globally. This strategic partnership between Dodge and Mitsubishi aimed to capitalize on the success of the Lancer while offering a Dodge-branded alternative in South America. The SX 2.0 was available with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, offering a balance of performance and fuel efficiency for everyday driving. Power was typically sent to the front wheels through a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic. The SX 2.0 was known for its relatively spacious interior and practical trunk space, offering comfortable accommodations for four passengers.
The Dodge SX 2.0 was primarily designed for the South American market, where it aimed to compete with other popular compact cars within its segment. Despite being a rebadged Lancer, the SX 2.0 received some unique styling elements, including a different front grille and headlights, which gave it a slightly more aggressive appearance. Though marketed as a Dodge, the SX 2.0 carried over many of the Lancer's mechanical components, ensuring a reliable and proven platform. The SX 2.0 incorporated features like power steering, air conditioning, and a decent sound system, making it a competitive offering in its class. While not as well-known globally compared to its Mitsubishi counterpart, the SX 2.0 served as a successful entry point for Dodge in the South American market, providing a reliable and affordable compact car option for drivers in the region.
