Nitro comes loaded with performance, space, functionality, flexibility, and safety. With a fold-flat first-row passenger seat and fold-flat second-row seats, Nitro offers a variety of loading options. Nitro also offers the segment’s only LOAD ‘N GO™ cargo floor, which holds up to 400 pounds and slides 18 inches rearward for easy loading and unloading. Optional features include heated leather seats, a DVD-based navigation system, and a cutting-edge entertainment system that stores up to 2,500 songs. Standard safety features include electronic stability program (ESP), anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic roll mitigation and side-curtain air bags.

“The five-passenger Nitro will appeal to customers seeking distinctive style and sporty performance combined with passenger- and cargo-carrying flexibility,” said Loveless. “Dodge Nitro offers many features not found in a typical mid-size SUV, including a choice of two V-6 engines, 20-inch chromed-clad aluminum wheels and tires, and a performance suspension.”
