Dodge Dart had three models: Seneca, Pioneer, and Phoenix.
Dart buyers could choose from seventeen available colors. These models looked Dodgish except for
the grille that had vertical bars that curved down and forward from the hood. Particular only to these Dart models, were
the side trim, ornamentation, medallions and nameplates.
Dodge Dart model also had three engines to chose from. :Standard for
Seneca and Pioneer was the 225 cubic inch slant six. Pioneer option was the 318 Red Ram V8. All engines used regular
gas. The 145-horsepower Slant Six delivered 24.74 miles per gallon in the 1960 2,061-mile Mobilgas Economy Run with promises
that "refinements in the engine should offer motorists even better economy in 1961."
The 318-cubic-inch V-8 with two-barrel carburetor (230 horsepower) and got a little over 22 mpg with an automatic
transmission. New rubber block and heavy coil spring engine mountings used on all 1960 Dodge engines achieved the largest
reduction of engine vibrations since Dodge first introduced V-8s.
