The current Dodge Avenger is 190.9″ long, 71.7″ wide, on a 109.1″ wheelbase, weighing 3,400 lb. Since 1995 it has grown 2% in length and gained 15% in weight. At 15.9 feet it fits a standard garage and fits a street parking space.
Every Dodge Avenger generation, measured
One row per generation. Watch the weight column — that is where most of the change happens, and it is the number that decides fuel use, tyre wear and how far the car takes to stop.
| Generation | Length | Width | Height | Wheelbase | Curb weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1995–1996 | 187.4″ | 68.5″ | 53.1″ | 103.9″ | 2,954 lb |
| 1997–1999 | 190.6″ | 68.5″ | 53.1″ | 103.9″ | 3,007 lb |
| 2008–2014 | 190.9″ | 71.7″ | 58.7″ | 109.1″ | 3,400 lb |
From 1995 to today the Avenger gained 3.5″ of length (2%) and 445 lb of weight (15%). A modern compact often outweighs the mid-size car of a generation before.
Avenger year by year
Measured every model year, not just at generation changes — 12 years on record. Small moves inside a generation are facelifts; the jumps are new platforms.
| Model year | Length | Width | Wheelbase | Curb weight | Body styles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2014 | 192.5″ | 72.8″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 2013 | 192.5″ | 72.8″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 2012 | 192.5″ | 72.8″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 2011 | 192.5″ | 72.8″ | 109.1″ | 1 | |
| 2010 | 190.9″ | 71.7″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 2009 | 190.9″ | 71.7″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 2008 | 190.9″ | 71.7″ | 109.1″ | 2 | |
| 1999 | 190.2″ | 68.5″ | 103.5″ | 2 | |
| 1998 | 190.6″ | 68.5″ | 103.9″ | 2 | |
| 1997 | 190.6″ | 68.5″ | 103.9″ | 2 | |
| 1996 | 187.4″ | 68.5″ | 103.9″ | 2 | |
| 1995 | 187.4″ | 68.5″ | 103.9″ | 2 |
Will a Avenger fit
The practical question behind every dimensions search. A single-car garage in the US is typically 20 feet deep; a street parking space is about 18. We allow a foot of clearance in both — nobody parks to the millimetre.
| Space | Typical size | This car | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single garage | 20 ft deep | 15.9 ft | Fits, with room to open the door |
| Street parking space | 18 ft | 15.9 ft | Fits comfortably |
| Standard parking bay width | 8.5 ft wide | 6 ft | Room to open doors both sides |
Against cars of the same length
Compared with 972 vehicles within ten inches of the same length — a fair proxy for «cars of this size», regardless of what the marketing calls them.
| Measure | This car | Typical car of this length | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Width | 71.7″ | 73.2″ | -1.5″ |
| Wheelbase | 109.1″ | 110.6″ | -1.5″ |
| Curb weight | 3,400 lb | 3,904 lb | -504 lb |
A longer wheelbase for the same overall length means shorter overhangs — usually more cabin space and a steadier ride. Lighter than typical for its size generally means better fuel economy and shorter stopping distances.

How we measure
Dimensions come from NHTSA vPIC and Transport Canada vehicle records — manufacturer-declared figures, held in metric and converted to inches and pounds for display.
One row per generation, not per model year: manufacturers rarely change the body between facelifts, and a table of forty near-identical rows helps nobody. Where a generation offered several body styles, the figures are the base measurements for that generation.
