Ask Patrick Carr, a 25-year-old Warren engineer, which feature he likes most about his new Dodge Caliber and you’ll get an interesting answer, explains Joe Guy Collier of Knight Ridder News. “Lighted cup holders,” Carr said without hesitation. “That was very cool. I couldn’t wait until it got dark so I could actually see them.” As it turns out, it’s the simple things that attract a lot of young buyers. Dodge enters the fray this month with the launch of the Caliber, a gadget-packed hatchback that hopes to reclaim some territory from automakers like Scion . The Caliber offers an iPod holder in the armrest, rear speakers that flip out when the tailgate is opened, a chilled storage bin in the glove compartment and a rear cargo light that pops out to serve as a flashlight.
