Dodge Omni Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1978–1990) — First Generation
The Dodge Omni introduced a practical front-wheel-drive hatchback to American buyers. Its compact size and efficient packaging made it a sensible urban companion, while the five-door layout offered easy access for passengers and cargo.
Dodge Omni engine choices centered on a 2.2-liter gasoline four-cylinder. This powertrain was available with either a manual or automatic transmission, both driving the front wheels. The manual appeals to drivers who prefer direct control, while the automatic suits relaxed commuting and stop-and-go traffic. In everyday use, the Omni delivers adequate acceleration for city and highway merging, with a focus on simplicity and ease of maintenance.
