Dodge has introduced the most fuel-efficient version of its new Dart sedan, the replacement for the Caliber hatchback launched earlier this year.

Standard equipment includes 10 airbags, anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, cruise control, auto headlamps, air conditioning with micron filter, power windows and locks, power mirrors, remote keyless entry, leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, projector headlamps and class-exclusive LED ‘racetrack’ tail lamps.
