The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
8.2
7.6
TCC’s Bottom Line
Remember the Neon? The 2013 Dodge Dart brings some of the same passion back to Chrysler's compact-car lineup. The Jetta draws drivers looking for a taut driving feel and delivers superior interior space; we'd pass on the low-cost base models, and aim for the standout TDI and GLI editions.
