This morning, the Chrysler Group unveiled the second group of 2013 Dodge Dart teasers, this time focusing on the center stack and gauge cluster of the new C segment sedan but around 6pm eastern standard time, Dodge posted another interior shot of the 2013 Dart on their official Facebook page - offering us a closer look at the whole dash layout.
The two teasers issued early this morning introduced the world to many of the major interior features of the 2013 Dodge Dart but the image posted on the official Dodge Facebook page this evening gives us a shadowy look at the big picture. The main feature illustrated in the newest 2013 Dart interior teaser is the “racetrack” ambient lighting that runs around the gauge cluster, the 8.4” touch screen mounted in the center stack and the centrally mounted HVAC vents. We can expect to see this sexy ambient lighting echoed throughout the cabin once the 2013 Dart is introduced in the flesh and it looks in this picture that the stereo control knobs (lower right corner of the image on the right) also offer the seem eerie glow. We can see the lower portion of the center stack thanks to some photo editing work by Chrysler - allowing us to “see through” the steering wheel.
This lower portion of the center stack from the 2013 Dodge Dart, containing the stereo control knobs for those who arent keen on the touch screen, also holds buttons for the air conditioning, the front and rear defroster systems and a large knob that controls the HVAC fan speed. Next, this image shows that the 2013 Dodge Dart will come with a push button start system and even with the see through steering wheel, this new image shows that the 2013 Dart will offer steering wheel mounted controls for the stereo system and cruise control. Finally, and not surprisingly, the new Dodge Dart will wear the same crosshair style brand logo on the steering wheel with the Dodge font across the middle.
The 2013 Dodge Dart will make its official debut on January 9th during the opening day of the 2012
North American International Auto Show in Detroit but with that day 4 weeks away - we have to wonder if Dodge will continue to offer morr teasers of the new Dart or keep the people (and us) waiting for the grand debut at Cobo Hall. Should more teasers become available, TorqueNews will bring them to you and if nothing else, we will be on hand at the 2012 NAIAS - bringing you close up look at the new Dart and all of the hot debuts from the 2012 Detroit Auto Show.
