2008 Dodge Nitro SXT CRD review







After the first glance may be confused with a piece of military equipment capable of operating with more small houses. On the second sight, but the rubber tires and chrome grille slot in the category of SUVs. It is literally a big step to reach the driver's seat, when a position is taken. Panseret, it seems that ever happens, so that the front hood easy to see. Driver's seat is comfortable and gives a relaxed position for long drives. interior - including most American car - is apparently in plastic. I could not believe the amount of plastics used in the Dodge Caliber took me last year. Although the Nitro has a lot of plastic for use, is not as bad as the size, but for the same reason, it is not at a level that I would describe as acceptable for a $ 40000 car ~ . I took the test Nitro SXT CRD under the hood of a Mercedes-Benz diesel engine and gearbox to the authority of Nitro. Nails into force and after a few steps turbo lag, a torrent few hits, military vehicles lookalike pace. The diesel engine produces 130kW and a massive 460Nm of torque, consumption of alcohol by 9.4l/100km, not the poor for this great car. Power is transmitted by a 5-speed automatic box. despite the acceleration of contact is much, Nitro does not deal with - and for all. Chuck Nitro around a little patience and a sense of insecurity felt immediately. Body roll, a lack of response management system spongy and end up less than a fun driving experience. Although the body roll is acceptable for an SUV, Nitro does not have a car that can be used in all situations, which is the target of an SUV. In terms of equipment 4WD, Nitro has a switched-mode 4WD which has the ability to shift power to the rear wheels when slippage is detected. Plastics massive dominates the front and rear, I'm not trying to Nitro off-road situations, because of fear of breaking bull bars and others.
