The 2004 Dodge Stratus, a compact car produced by the American automaker Dodge, marked the final year of this model's second generation. Introduced in 1995, the Stratus was a popular choice among drivers seeking a comfortable and practical sedan that offered a blend of affordability and features. The 2004 model retained the same basic design as its predecessors but featured subtle styling updates, including a new grille, front bumper, and taillights. It was available in a variety of trim levels, ranging from the base SE to the more luxurious SXT and R/T models. The Stratus offered a choice of two engines: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine producing 150 horsepower and a 2.7-liter V6 engine generating 175 horsepower. Both engines were paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth acceleration and responsive performance. The 2004 Dodge Stratus was lauded for its spacious interior, comfortable ride, and overall value. It offered plenty of headroom and legroom for both front and rear passengers, and its trunk provided ample cargo space. Standard features included air conditioning, power windows and locks, and a four-speaker sound system. Optional features included a sunroof, leather upholstery, and a premium sound system. While the Stratus's overall design was considered conservative, it possessed a practical and well-rounded appeal, making it a popular choice among families and commuters. The 2004 model year marked the end of the Stratus's production run, as Dodge shifted its focus towards other models in its lineup. Though no longer in production, the Dodge Stratus remains a recognizable and fondly remembered vehicle, representing a period of affordable and dependable compact cars in the American automotive landscape.
