2008 Dodge Caliber SRT4 Prices Are Here

Compact hot-rod fans were excited back in February 2006 when Dodge unveiled a high-power version of the Caliber called the SRT4. That was a long time ago, however, and we wonder how many people have kind of forgotten the speedy hatchback was on its way.

Dodge has now given the SRT4 a price: $22,435, not including $560 in destination charges. That places the car exactly $105 higher than the closest competition, the Mazdaspeed3.

The SRT4 features a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 285 hp and 265 pounds-feet of torque going to the front wheels only. A six-speed manual is the only available transmission. Antilock brakes, stability control, 19-inch wheels and unique interior and exterior trim is all standard. Options include a stereo system, moonroof and polished aluminum wheels. There still isn’t a release date scheduled for the SRT4, but we’re hearing it will be this fall. After such a long wait, it’s easy to wonder if there will still be anticipation for this go-fast hatch. Keep reading for some more new photos of the SRT4.
