Dodge Stratus Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2000–2003) — Second Generation
The second-generation Dodge Stratus arrived as a roomy sedan and a sleeker coupe, sharing a name but offering different characters — one built around family practicality, the other around a lower, sportier stance and driving feel.
Every Dodge Stratus engine here is gasoline-fuelled and drives the front wheels. The 2.4 comes as 2.4 MT or 2.4 AT, so you choose between a manual's directness and an automatic's ease in traffic, while the 3.0 MT adds smoother, stronger pulling power for highway work.
