Of all the vehicles in Dodge's line-up to benefit from the numerous changes for the 2011 model year, the Dodge Nitro and Dodge Caliber were both left out in the cold. While the 2013 Dodge Dart will be introduced next month to replace the Caliber, the Nitro was killed off, at least in retail form, following Dodge's prolific 2011 model year and soldiered on as a fleet-only vehicle for 2012. Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Dodge Nitro was a sportier and less-rugged version of the Jeep Liberty, and on Friday, the final Nitro rolled off the line at Chrysler's Toledo Assembly Complex.
