A Dodge Avenger Wagon?

09/21/2006, 9:18 PM

By admin

Official photos of the 2007 Dodge Avenger sedan have only been on the Web for 24 hours, and already the Photoshop wizards at CWW Design have already put together an illustration of how a Dodge Avenger wagon might look. Is a mini Magnum in the works? We don’t have any specific details on such plans, but the idea is nonetheless an interesting one. Full rendering after the jump…

Looks better than the Magnum. Damn good.

Great idea… I think this will have a bigger market than the Magnum (which comes across too big).

I am a big detractor to the mini-Charger sedan but as a driver of a V50 and big proponent of turbos in wagons versus SUV’s, this could be a big hit.

Will GM do a Malibu wagon or will Ford do a Fusion wagon if the segment grows?

GM already did a Malibu wagon in the Malibu Maxx. It’s being discontinued, but there is talk of a new one coming in 08 or 09.

Quit making wagons, please. The auto industry doesn’t need anymore lameness. My grandmother drove a station wagon, why on earth would I ever consider that cool? Hatchbacks are a better answer.The only cool wagon, and I use cool in a loose sense, is an Audi.

But the Advenger was ugly and sense it’s made by DCX, it’s crap in terms of quality. Why would the wagon be any better?

If its still powered by that crappy 3.5l then this is a no go. It will even lose to a fusion in terms of power.

However if there is going to be an SRT version with the caliber’s 300HP and AWD, then you can count me in.

“Sense it’s made by DCX, it’s crap in terms of quality”? Souldn’t it be “since”? Also, DCX’s quality ratings are middle of the road, neither poor nor great. But some products (like the PT Cruiser) have excellent quality, so there is hope for the Sebring/Avenger.

I’d give the nod to a Chrysler product before I settled on a GM product. This one would be a strong seller with little competition. And it looks great.

Great style (based off the baddest station wagon ever), more accessible and practical. Win-win.

revenge of the station wagons…I have a problem with the magnum though, I think it’s a bit too short.

Ricardo Head: I agree. Plus I’d rather drive a short wheelbase station wagon than one of those ugly hatchbacks.

Looks neat. It needs that cool hip joint of the sedan though.

If DCX has such great quality then why has my family’s Pacifica had more problems then a Korean car from the 80’s? It has 24,000 miles on it, the power steering has failed, it burns oil (we keep it changed on a 3,000 mile schedule), it has rusted, among many other problems. DCX = crap.

Why does this site post CWW crap anyway?

Just a few comments about my impression:

Dodge has entered the German market with the Caliber. Next model will be the Avenger, but you can’t compete with Passat & Co. without a diesel and a wagon option. For a reasonable price the Avenger Touring could be a success.

For the U.S. market a coupé version would be more appropriate.

Need MORE wagons! Where’s the damn TSX wagon? That’s a hot car in Europe. Could you imagine how many Camry Hybrid wagons Toyota could sell?

Why would Dodge build something that is basically a 7/8 Magnum? If it’s a replacement to the Magnum- OK.

Wow! :shock: Throw that 3.0 L V-6 Diesel in there and I’m the first one to buy this car!

Dodge doesn’t need the sedan. Just make this.
