Dodge is going to great lengths to make a successful return to the North American compact car segment. Launched in 2012 as a 2013 model, the Dart comes back for 2014 with an exciting new proposition: a more powerful GT model with a slew of hi-tech gadgets.
I understand that the competition is extremely fierce, and that automakers must up the ante to stand out from the pack, but when you have a compact Dodge that retails for just under $25K, you have every right to expect a great driving experience. Alas, the new GT lacks bite. What's more, the 2014 Dodge Dart GT’s latest technology and creature comforts are eclipsed by a cramped interior and a thirsty engine.

Take account of Ms. Paquin being a professional driver. I think a review of a trim other than GT might have been more positive. With that in mind, the review wasn't bad.
