Used 2014 Dodge Dart for SaleNationwide

How much does the 2014 Dodge Dart cost?

Prices have softened 2.74% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 386 listings available, which suggests you should have some room to compare prices and equipment.

Is the 2014 Dodge Dart a good car?

Yes — the 2014 Dodge Dart earns a 4.5/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise its stylish design, fun driving experience, and reliability. The review summary also points to practicality and appeal for new drivers, which fits a small car that aims to be easy to live with. In use-case terms, the Dart makes the most sense if you want a compact sedan with a strong infotainment setup and a more upscale feel than its price might suggest.

26.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there are still some attractive opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2014 Dodge Dart reliable?

Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback also highlights reliability, which is encouraging for used-car shoppers looking for something they can count on. On the expert side, the Dart’s structure is described as stiff and robust, and the new 6-speed automatic is noted for eliminating the hesitation of the earlier transmission. The cost-effectiveness notes also mention that the majority of 2014 Dart models still had some reliability uncertainty early on, so condition and maintenance history matter.

For used buyers, the biggest long-term ownership risk is uneven quality control, so a careful inspection and records review are worth your time.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Dodge Dart?

At 57% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has been in a prior collision. Focus on body condition, panel alignment, and how well the electronics and controls work, since owner feedback mentions issues with the backup camera and window controls. It’s also smart to compare trim equipment closely, because the base car leaves out a lot of desirable features.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base SE is notably sparse, while the SXT adds air conditioning, Bluetooth, steering-wheel audio controls, more speakers, premium cloth seat fabric, remote keyless entry, cruise control, floor mats, aluminum wheels, a sliding center-console armrest, a rear-seat armrest with cupholders, a 60/40-split rear seat with a ski pass-through, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a trip computer, a vehicle information center with a tire pressure monitor, an overhead console with a sunglasses holder, illuminated vanity mirrors, automatic headlights, and LED taillights.
• Powertrain: The 2.4-liter 4-cylinder replaces the earlier 2.0-liter in most trims, while the Aero keeps the turbocharged 1.4-liter engine for better fuel efficiency. The 2.4-liter makes 184 hp and 171 lb-ft of torque, but the review notes that it feels lackluster and the car is heavy.
• Safety package: The Dart includes 10 airbags and Ready Alert Braking with Rain Brake Support. A reversing camera is offered for most models, and the Technology Group adds rain-sensing wipers, rear parking-assist sensors, automatic high-beam headlights, a Blind-Spot Monitor, and Rear Cross-Path Detection on the GT and Limited.
• Infotainment: The available Uconnect 8.4 system uses an 8.4-inch touchscreen and is praised for crisp graphics, large touch-sensitive buttons, and intuitive operation. It also supports navigation with real-time traffic and weather, Travel Link services, and available Wi-Fi hotspot capability.
• Fuel efficiency: The 2.4-liter engine is described as unimpressive on fuel economy, with the review citing 27 mpg in combined driving as the EPA figure and 25.3 mpg in real-world testing. The turbocharged 1.4-liter is described as significantly more fuel-efficient.

Which 2014 Dodge Dart trim should I buy?

The 2014 Dodge Dart is offered in 5 trim levels: SE, SXT, Aero, GT, Limited.

Here's the short version:

• SE: This is the least expensive way into the Dart, but it is also the most stripped-down. You should only choose it if price matters more than equipment, because the SXT adds a long list of everyday conveniences and comfort features.
• SXT: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the 2.4-liter engine plus a much fuller equipment list, including Bluetooth, cruise control, aluminum wheels, and several cabin upgrades.
• Aero: Choose this if fuel efficiency matters most, since it keeps the turbocharged 1.4-liter engine and adds aero-focused hardware and available tech features.
• GT: This is the right pick if you want the sportier look and feel, with sport suspension, 18-inch wheels, heated seats, premium Nappa leather, and keyless entry with push-button start.
• Limited: Pick this if you want the most comfort and convenience features, including dual-zone climate control, navigation, remote start, and a sunroof.

The Technology Group is a strong safety add-on on the GT and Limited, but Dodge should have made those features available on the SXT and Aero, too.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Dodge Dart?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right car.

• Deal availability: 26.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 386 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.74% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 57.0% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $6,570, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Dodge Dart's resale value?

The current average of $6,935 sits slightly below last year's $7,130.

That decline suggests the Dart has been losing value, which can be good news if you’re buying but less favorable if you plan to sell soon. The current pricing trend also implies that future resale gains are unlikely to be strong unless the car is especially clean, well-equipped, and well maintained. If you’re a seller, condition and trim choice matter more than ever because the market is already pricing in softer demand.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Dodge Dart safe?

The 2014 Dodge Dart earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA and a Top Safety Pick rating from IIHS.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The Dart comes with 10 airbags and Ready Alert Braking with Rain Brake Support. A reversing camera is offered for most models, and the Technology Group adds rain-sensing wipers, rear parking-assist sensors, automatic high-beam headlights, a Blind-Spot Monitor, and Rear Cross-Path Detection on the GT and Limited. The main caveat is that it misses out on Top Safety Pick+ status because it does not offer forward-collision warning.

Should I buy a 2014 Dodge Dart or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 26.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 57% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.74% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Safety and technology are standout strengths this year, especially the excellent crash-test performance and Uconnect 8.4-inch touchscreen.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $7,106, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $6,935 average.
• It adds a Blacktop appearance package to SXT trims.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the smarter buy because pricing has softened and the feature set is strong. If you’re willing to spend a bit more for a slightly newer example, the 2015 is worth a look, but the 2014 already delivers the core Dart strengths that matter most.
