2013 Dodge Dart leaked

Just ahead of its debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, images of the all-new 2013 Dodge Dart compact have been leaked.

Their emergence follows Dodge’s teaser campaign last month, so perhaps we’ll never know how ‘official’ the release of these latest pictures is.



Whatever, it seems that the heavily-cropped teaser shots really didn’t do the Dart’s styling justice.



Thanks to a low, wide stance, a prominent rising beltline along the side and a neat arrangement for the headlights and Dodge crosshair grille, it manages to look pretty good from just about any angle. Certainly in terms of design, the Dart moves things on immeasurably from its Caliber predecessor.



Based on a stretched and widened Alfa Romeo Giulietta platform - known as Compact U.S. Wide (CUSW) - the Dart is going to be available with a choice of three four-cylinder petrol engines. Two of those feature Fiat’s MultiAir valvegear technology, which should mean significantly improved fuel consumption and emissions.
