2012 Avenger R/T will be officially unveil by Dodge at upcomming New York Auto Show, but that hasn’t kept them from releasing images and specifications in advance. No longer just a trim package, next year’s Avenger R/T benefits from stiffer shocks and springs as well as a larger rear sway bar, which Dodge insists will yield a “spirited, performance sedan driving experience”. The 3.6-liter Pentastar engine, good for the aforementioned 283 horsepower, should ensure that the Avenger R/T accelerates briskly from a standing start, but drivers will have to settle for a six speed automatic transmission since no manual option is offered.

Outside, the Avenger R/T gets a body-colored grille, black headlight surrounds, “war paint” decals on the front quarter panels, a rear spoiler and unique eighteen inch wheels. Inside, buyers get bolstered sport seats with the R/T logo, a unique gauge cluster and “SRT-inspired” pedals. Look for Avenger R/T models to hit Dodge dealerships sometime in the third quarter of 2011.
