The Dodge DD series was a passenger car from the Dodge company in Detroit , which was presented as a small offshoot of the Senior in January 1930.

The car had a side-controlled 6-cylinder in-line engine with 3112 cm³, which delivered an output of 60 bhp (44 kW). The rear wheels were driven via a single-disc dry clutch and a three-speed gearbox with center shift. All four wheels had hydraulic brakes. The wheelbase of the chassis was 2769 mm. A 4-door sedan, two 2-door coupés, a 2-door cabriolet and a roadster were offered as bodies. In addition, the DD was also available as a chassis with all mechanical components for customers who wanted to commission a body shop themselves. From July 1931 a 4-door Phaeton was also offered.

The production of the small six-cylinder was actually stopped in May 1931. Apparently, however, nine vehicles were produced in January 1932.
