Thinking of buying the 1998 Dodge Avenger?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1998 Dodge Avenger for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 1998 Dodge Avenger, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
A buyer's checks
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
The numbers in plain words
Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated 10.2 L/100 km combined: about 31 litres every 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $47.43 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,900 a year for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
What the Avenger is like
As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. In plain terms, its 340 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Try before you buy
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. If the Avenger is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Avenger for a week and see how it fits your life.
Narrowing it down
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 1998 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.81 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $158.10 at our price setting.
