If you’re digging into early-2000s American cars or tracking down a specific Dodge on the used market, 2001 is an interesting year that stretches from practical family vehicles to high-performance machines. That mix makes it useful to have a compact, comparable list when you’re checking trims, parts, or resale value.
There are 11 2001 Dodge Models, ranging from the Caravan to the Viper. For each model, you’ll find below Body style, Engine options, Years (start–end) to help you compare seating and cargo capacity, powertrain choices, and production spans as you research — you’ll find below.
Which 2001 Dodge should I pick if I need cargo space versus sporty performance?
If cargo and family use are your priority, the Caravan represents the practical end of the lineup with flexible seating and storage; if you want raw performance, the Viper sits at the opposite extreme with a large-displacement V10. Use the Body style and Engine options columns to match real-world needs like passenger capacity or towing versus straight-line speed.
How do I use the Body style, Engine options, Years (start–end) columns when researching these models?
Start with Body style to narrow candidates (minivan, sedan, pickup, sports car), then check Engine options for fuel economy and service considerations; Years (start–end) shows when a given configuration was built, which matters for parts compatibility and identifying mid-cycle updates.
