1923 Dodge Touring Sedan, part of the Dodge Series 116, was a four-door car produced by the Dodge Brothers with a 35-horsepower, flathead, 4-cylinder engine and a 3-speed non-synchro manual transmission. It was notable for offering all-steel bodies at a time when most cars used wood-steel composite construction and was known for its reliability and practicality, often seen as a viable alternative to a Ford Model T.

Driving Experience & Comparisons
