The Dodge 400 was Dodge 's second K-car in the early 1980s . It was similar to the Chrysler LeBaron of the same era. The 400 was introduced in 1982 , but the Dodge 400 was replaced by the midsize Dodge 600 just one year later. 1982 The 400 was Dodge's new, more luxurious version of the Aries . The 400 was available in both 2-door and 4-door versions; it was also Dodge's first convertible since the 1971 Challenger ; then-Chrysler chairman Lee Iacocca believed he could revive interest in convertibles, which at the time were no longer part of any major manufacturer's range. It came in just two trims - the base and LS. Its engines were limited to the standard 2.2 L I4 engine or an optional Mitsubishi-built 2.6 L "Silent Shaft" I4. The convertible came with the 2.6 L engine as standard. Total production: 31,449. 1983 For 1983, the LS trim line was dropped; that would be the only major change for this year. Total production: 25,952. In 1983 , the 400 sedan was replaced by the 600. The 400 coupes and convertibles were integrated into the 600 lineup in 1984 . |
