The 1934 Dodge was completely restyled to evidence a much more streamlined appearance. There was a new V-type radiator; skirted front and rear fenders; many horizontal hood louvers of descending lengths; larger, bullet-shaped chrome headlamps; and a single-bar bumper with a flat dip in the middle.

Standard equipment included Delco-Remy ignition; hydraulic brakes; new independent front suspension; “Floating Power” engine mounting system; X-type frame; new ventilation system; steel spoke wheels; dual horns; and a new, “leaping Ram” hood ornament. These models were retroactively labelled DeLuxe Sixes after the Standard Sixes debuted in June 1934. After that, DR side hood panels featured four plain louvers, like the Standards instead of the multiple louvers used before June.
