VERSATILE PERFORMER
VERSATILITY
For too many years you’ve had to choose between perfor-
mance and versatility. If you needed a vehicle that could haul
the kids to practice or haul lumber from the home improve-
ment store, you had to give up on real, aggressive power. But
with the 2006 Dodge Magnum you can kiss that compromise
goodbye. In addition to great power, performance, and han-
dling, Magnum is also versatile enough to handle everyday
tasks.
Magnum lets you carry passengers and cargo—a whole lot
of cargo. There’s 27.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the
rear seats, which turns into 71.6 cubic feet with the rear seats
folded down. This gives you the versatility to handle both
workday projects and weekend fun.
The bilevel cargo fl oor includes a removable trifold upper
divider and lower load fl oor to organize, store, and hide valu-
ables. The lower load fl oor is also hinged for easy access to
the spare tire, jack, and battery.
LIFTGATE
The unique forward-hinging liftgate opens up and away from
you, allowing access to the rear cargo area without making
you back out of the way. In fact, Magnum’s unique rear cargo
area enables you to load and unload large objects with ease.
* Properly secure all cargo.
The available integrated DVD-based global
positioning satellite system (GPS) with color display
provides precise detail on where you are and where
you’re going. In fact, it will give you turn by turn-by-
turn instructions so you’ll never have to stop to ask
for directions.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
From the black-on-white gauge display in the day-
time to the comfortable blue-green glow of the digits
in the evening, the engaging gauges on Magnum are
easy to read any time of the day or night.
The available electronic vehicle information center
(EVIC) is designed to provide valuable information to
get you down the road. The steering wheel—mount-
ed controls will let you navigate through such fea-
tures as the UConnect™ hands-free communication
system screen, the navigation system’s turn-by-turn
route guidance, trip computer, outside temperature,
compass, and audio settings.
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
Even the most careful driver occasionally gets into
unavoidable situations. When that happens, it’s nice to know
that the next-generation multistage front air bags standard
on all models of Dodge Magnum will infl ate according to the
severity of the impact.†
And the supplemental air bags† available on all models offer
additional side-impact protection to both front- and rear-seat
passengers.
† Always wear a seat belt. Remember, a back seat is the safest
place for children 12 and under.
PASSENGER PROTECTION
The available Uconnect hands-free communication
system is cool and convenient. All you need to do is
set up any compatible Bluetooth™ hands-free wire-
less phone in Magnum, and the UConnect system
automatically lowers the audio system volume and
broadcasts the incoming call. A microphone in the
rearview mirror takes your voice commands while
you keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on
the road.
