It is what it is, I guess...Source: Edmunds...I bought this car, and really don't know why in the end. From the plastic interior, satellite radio with no info display, to the awful road noise. I do like the Sunroof, and Yes Essential seats. The CVT seems to work well, corners OK, but in all a massive let down. I swallowed the loss and traded another vehicle off to cover some of the loss to purchase a Pontiac Torrent. Sorry this car is great if you really enjoyed the Neon I guess. Dodge has dropped quality so far, its just sad. I am so happy with Torrent, sorry Dodge Caliber just needs to many improvements, glorified Neon for sure. Look... |

Great carSource: Edmunds
...We love the Caliber SXT. It is like a small version of the Ford Edge. |

Cushy Riding Sleek Best DealSource: Edmunds...The total rebates motivated me to buy, plus my shiny Red Caliber was a minimum of 20% less compared to competitors model's which would have fit my wants and needs. It has plenty of power for my mountainous terrain. It's quick enough to pass others safely on two lane roads. At 25 to 45 it provides a comfortable stress free ride. It's smooth, even "cushy." Same applies when driving at 70 mph on busy interstate highways. It fits a lot of gear: boxes, cases, stuff, amps, guitars, keyboards, drums, even an upright bass! My wife also likes driving it... |

It's fun!!!!!!!!!!!Source: Edmunds...is good.except the large front pillars..you need to really check.they are quite intrusive..and do obstruct the view.i found adjusting the height in my seat to be better.The interior seems better than my 2007 model.everything is within easy reach no annoying digital readouts.easy to drive.the gearbox is good.bit slow at start but flies on motorway.good power for overtaking and the car seems solid whilst making quick maneuvers..all in all the Caliber is fun to drive.no problems... |

If you're looking for an economical hatchback, the Nissan Versa and Kia Spectra5 should also be on the shopping list.
The Versa in particular is very roomy inside, yet costs a bit less—at least in terms of sticker price—than the Caliber.
The Spectra5 is more fun to drive than the Caliber, and either of these vehicles is more refined than the Dodge.
The Vibe and Matrix are mechanically identical to each other; between the two, we like the styling of the Vibe a bit more.
Most of this field fails to achieve top marks in safety across the board, though you might also consider the slightly smaller and more expensive Honda Fit; it's surprisingly roomy inside.
