2011 Dodge Nitro for Sale in Austin
The 2011 Dodge Nitro for sale in Austin comes with a 3.7-liter V6 engine that produces 210
horsepower and 237 pound-feet of torque. A four-speed automatic transmission is
standard. Rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive are available, with the latter
being a part-time system with high- and low-range gearing. EPA estimates are 16
mpg city/22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined with rear-wheel drive and 16/20/17
with four-wheel drive. In performance testing, the virtually identical Jeep
Liberty 4x4 went from zero to 60 mph in a lazy 9.5 seconds.
The Heat
4.0, Nitro Detonator and Shock come with a 4.0-liter V6 good for 260 hp and 265
lb-ft of torque. A five-speed automatic is standard and, again, one may choose
between rear- and four-wheel drive. EPA estimates are a similarly poor 16/21/18
with rear-wheel drive and 15/21/17 with 4WD. In performance testing, a
rear-drive Nitro with the 4.0-liter engine went from zero to 60 mph in 7.7
seconds.
Safety
Standard
safety equipment includes antilock disc brakes, traction and stability control
and side curtain airbags. The stability control includes a trailer sway control
feature. Rear parking sensors are standard on the Detonator and Shock.
The 2011
Dodge Nitro has not been rated using the government's new, more strenuous 2011
crash-testing procedures. Its 2010 ratings (which aren't comparable to new 2011
tests) were a top five-star rating in all frontal and side crash categories.
Testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded the Nitro its top
score of "Good" in the frontal-offset test.
