The Dodge DH series was a passenger car from Dodge in Detroit , which was presented as the successor to the Senior in November 1930.

The car had a side-controlled 6-cylinder in-line engine with 3466 cm³, which delivered an output of 68 bhp (50 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 2896 mm. A 4-door Phaeton, a 4-door sedan, two 2-door coupés, a 2-door convertible and a roadster were offered as bodies. In addition, the DH was also available as a chassis with all mechanical components for customers who wanted to commission a body shop themselves.

From July 1931 a more powerful engine with 74 bhp (54.4 kW) was offered.

In January 1932, the DL series replaced the DH.
