2003 Dodge Stratus Sedan
Brother to the two-door coupe model, the 2003 Dodge
Stratus Sedan offers the additional practicality of
a four-door body frame. With many different models to
choose from, each with an individual appeal, the Stratus
sedan lineup is thoroughly impressive. However, what
all models share is a similar set of trademark Stratus
attributes, including crisp handling, power and a muscular
design.
New to the Stratus sedan family is an SXT model, which
rounds in as a value-packed vehicle with plenty of standard
appointments. With the SXT, the Stratus sedan is given
a four-pronged model lineup: SE, SXT, ES and R/T. All
models seat five and come well equipped under a reasonable
price.
Under the Hood
SE and SXT models are given the same confident engine.
It is a 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder model with 150 horsepower.
ES and R/T models come with a slightly more powerful
2.7-liter V6 engine providing 200 horsepower (optional
with SE models). The 4-cylinder engine in SE and SXT
models is mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission
system, while the V6 also offers 5-speed manual.
An AutoStick® feature is optional on the Stratus
R/T. It provides drivers the control of a manual transmission
shifter with the convenience of an automatic transaxle.
For safety, the Stratus sedan provides an advanced occupant
restraint system, a rigid body structure and trim for
improved impact protection, internal trunk latch release,
best-in-class brakes with optional antilock brakes (standard
with the R/T) and optional side airbag curtains.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
There is enough interior space in the rear seat of
the Stratus sedan to seat five adults comfortably. SE
models come with air conditioning, power steering, tilt
steering wheel, cruise control, cloth upholstery, height-adjustable
driver seat, center console, AM/FM cassette and digital
clock. The SXT features power mirrors, remote keyless
entry, AM/FM/CD player and automatic-off headlights,
while the ES adds an 8-way power driver seat with lumbar
adjustment, illuminated visor mirrors and a trip computer.
At the top of the line, the R/T features an upgraded
sound system for pure listening pleasure.
There are many options that can be added to the 2003
Stratus sedan. A power sunroof is available across most
models, while special paint will touch up the sedan
and give it a distinguished look.
A good value with a well-balanced set of features,
the 2003 Dodge Stratus Sedan will last awhile without
breaking the bank.
