Where the 3.7L 6-cyl sits in the Nitro engine lineup

Every engine family this model was sold with, ordered by size. The bar spans the model years it was fitted; the price is what cars carrying it ask today. Older engines look cheaper because the cars are older — the only fair comparison is an engine whose years overlap this one's.

The 3.7L 6-cyl Nitro: common questions

Which Nitro years have the 3.7L 6-cyl?

2007–2011, without a break — 5 model years in our VIN decode, across 24 factory configurations and 24,716 VINs.

What does a 3.7L 6-cyl Nitro cost?

$5,694 is the typical asking price across the 157 cars with this engine on sale today. The year-by-year ladder above splits that by model year — the spread between the oldest and newest year is far wider than the spread between engines.

Is the 3.7L 6-cyl turbocharged?

No — every configuration in this family decodes as naturally aspirated.

What is the engine code, and does it matter?

Magnum — the code the VIN decodes to on the configurations on this page. It matters when you order parts or read a service history: the same displacement badge on another model can be a different code with different outputs.
