2011 Dodge Nitro

 
 New for 2011, the Dodge Nitro Heat 4.0 lifestyle package joins the Detonator, Shock and Heat models that arrived on the scene in 2010. The new Nitro Heat 4.0 comes standard with a five-speed automatic transmission, standard Úconnect®Phone and an upgraded eight-speaker sound system. Of course the Heat 4.0 would not be complete without the powerful 4.0-liter V-6 engine as standard equipment. The all-aluminum 4.0-liter overhead cam V-6 engine delivers 260 horsepower (194 kW) and 265 lb.-ft. (359 N•m) of torque.
 Interestingly, a four-cylinder engine is not available, only two V6s, perhaps putting the emphasis on "sport" in sport-utility.
Also, two suspensions are available, the standard one called "sport" and another called "performance," which seem to mean the same thing.
So, however it's equipped, the Nitro is big on sport.

The base motor is a 3.7-liter V6 with 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. It's made of lightweight aluminum and features an advanced electronic throttle control for precise drive-by-wire control and efficiency. It's mated to either a standard six-speed manual or optional four-speed automatic transmission, and gets 16 miles per gallon in the city and 22 on the highway.
 The up-level Nitro R/T model is equipped with a 4.0-liter V6 that churns out a healthy 260 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque. The engine is hooked up to a five-speed automatic transmission. Mileage isn't compromised as it is nearly equivalent to that of the lesser V6, estimated at 16 mpg in the city and 21 on the highway.
Both engines can be had powering either just the two rear wheels or all four wheels.
Towing capacity is 5,000 pounds for the R/T when the trailer tow group option is selected.
Automotive critics have praised the Nitro for its off-road prowess and towing capabilities, saying they out-perform other compact SUVs.
 he all-new Dodge Nitro lineup was revised and renamed in 2010, offering new exterior and interior styling features. These newly repackaged models – Heat, Detonator and Shock along with the Heat 4.o Lifestyle Package – provide Nitro customers with more standard content and style, including 20-in. aluminum wheels, sunscreen glass and performance suspension paint. For 2011, select models feature upgraded interiors with new cloth and leather with premium colored stitching. Detonator and Shock are now tattooed with Dodge Brand's signature racing stripes.

 The Shock has an intense, nine speaker including subwoofer audio system, remote start and Parksense® rear park assist system. The 2011 Dodge Nitro lineup is now available in nine exterior colors, including new for 2011 Bright White Clear Coat, Blackberry Pearl Coat, Toxic Orange Pearl Coat and Redline Two Coat Pearl.
