YearBody/PowertrainComment
2010 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 3.7L V6
4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time
The Nitro was the only SUV she could choose that had a V6. Case closed. It also was packaged with way more features and creature comforts (power seats, , heated mirrors, SIRRUS, among others). Available 4WD was also a huge deal as we live in Canada. see full Dodge Nitro review
