The Dodge Caliber was a compact car manufactured by Chrysler from 2006 to 2012. It was introduced as a replacement for the aging Dodge Neon and was initially positioned as a sporty and versatile option in the growing compact car segment. The Caliber offered a distinctive boxy design with a tall roofline, providing ample headroom and cargo space. It was available in a variety of configurations including two-door and four-door hatchback models, as well as a four-door sedan variant known as the Caliber R/T. The Caliber featured a range of powertrain options, including a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, and a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. Some models were also available with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, known as the "Caliber SRT-4."

The Dodge Caliber was praised for its spacious interior, versatile cargo area, and fuel-efficient powertrains. However, it faced criticism for its handling, which was deemed less sharp than its competitors, and its overall build quality, which was perceived as below par. Despite these shortcomings, the Caliber found success in the American market, particularly among younger buyers who appreciated its practicality and unique styling. However, sales declined in later years as the Caliber faced competition from more refined and technologically advanced compact cars. Production of the Caliber was ultimately discontinued in 2012, replaced by the Dodge Dart, a more conventional and refined compact sedan.
