2014 Dodge Dart Limited Ride/Report
ICAR
23/35 Powertrain: 2.4L Multiair II 4-Cyl - 6 Speed Automatic Features: - Nappa Leather Interior - 6-Way Power Drivers Seat w/ Power 4-Way Lumbar - Heated Seats - Heated Steering Wheel - Remote Start - uConnect 8.4" w/ Garmin Navigation, Sirius XM, USB/BT and 6 Speakers - Proximity Key w/ Push Button Start - Backup Camera - 7" TFT Gauge Display - Ambient IP Surround and Racetrack LED Lighting - Auto Headlights - Dual Zone Automatic Climate Control Pros: - Quiet Interior - Great Looking Exterior especially w/ Racetrack LED at night - 2.4L has better all round drivability albeit a bit buzzy at higher RPM, but pulls fine. Much better at passing on highway vs. the previous 2.0L. - Lots of tech features including Garmin NAV w/ 3D Building Views - Generous trunk for a compact, I was able to fit 2 large suitcases, a carryon suitcase and still had room for a backpack and then some. - Customizable Dash - Heated Wheel/Seats come on automatically below 4C (~39F) Cons: - Not really anything other than the buzzy sounding engine at higher RPMS (Minor issue) - I would assume the 9-Speed should also improve things even further when it arrives - National failed to include a snow brush :td: Conclusion: I enjoyed the time I had with the car and wouldn't hesitate to rent it again. However not sure that I would take the more common National SXT Trim due to lack of features. ============================= Front: Sorry for the Snow Mohawk, I had to clean off the car with my hands. https://db.tt/KA6q6CAK Rear: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Rear%202.JPG Side: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../Dart/Side.JPG Under the Hood: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...art/Engine.JPG Trunk: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...Dart/Trunk.JPG Rear Seats: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...ack%20Seat.JPG Interior: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...art/Driver.JPG Night Rear (Racetrack LED): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../Night%201.JPG Night Interior (illuminated IP Surround): It should be noted that the illumination is actually quite subtle and not bothersome at all. It looks brighter in the photo than it actually is. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../Night%202.JPG Heated Seats/Wheel: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Controls.JPG Digital Dashboard is fully customizable, here are some of the different screens: Note: Ignore any warning lights you see, I didn't have the engine running for some of the shots. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%202.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%201.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%203.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%204.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%205.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%206.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...t/Dash%208.JPG |
Heated steering wheel on an ICAR? That's impressive! ^

Hopefully these make it to the US and not just Canada... :)

That's the new Element hotel. I just stayed there with my Flex last Tuesday.

I also had a Flex Limited a couple days before but decided to give the Dart a whirl cause Flex isn't exactly the thriftiest of cars on fuel. |
Hard not to see the back lights when backing up at night! Nice interior in the Dart! Nice pics and review!
