Visitors to the East of England Show this weekend will be able to catch an exclusive preview of the new Dodge Caliber.

Local Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealer Marshall of Peterborough is the first in the UK to welcome the newcomer, which doesn't officially go on sale until next month.

Alan Wensak, dealer principal at the Tyrrell Park showroom, said: "The Caliber is one of this year's most eagerly anticipated new cars and is certain to attract plenty of attention.

"It marks the official arrival of the Dodge brand to this country and to Marshall of Peterborough, where it will join our existing Chrysler and Jeep models."

The Caliber will be powered by a choice of 1.8-litre and 2.0-litre petrol or 2.0-litre diesel engines and all models feature a driver and front passenger airbag, electric windows/mirrors and a CD/radio as standard.

It will be priced from £11,495 when it is launched in July.

Other models on display will include a Dodge Ram Laramie pick-up truck, plus the latest models from sister marques Chrysler and Jeep.
