## The 2002 Dodge Stratus: A Mid-Sized Sedan with a Touch of Sport The Dodge Stratus, produced from 1995 to 2006, was a mid-sized sedan that offered a blend of practicality and affordability. The 2002 model year saw the introduction of a refreshed design, featuring a more angular, sportier appearance with a wider grille and sharper headlights. This update aimed to appeal to a younger, more dynamic audience, while still retaining the core values of reliability and comfort that had defined the Stratus line. Under the hood, the 2002 Stratus offered a range of powertrain options, including a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, a 2.7-liter V6 engine, and a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder for the performance-oriented R/T model. The Stratus was also available in various trim levels, allowing buyers to customize their experience based on their individual needs and budget. From the basic SE to the more luxurious ES, and the performance-focused R/T, there was a Stratus for every driver. Although lacking the advanced safety features common in today's vehicles, the 2002 Stratus provided a solid foundation for comfortable and reliable transportation, making it a popular choice among families and budget-conscious individuals.
