Bottom breather

A bottom breather is a front-engine automobile that takes in air from below the front fascia (nose) rather than through a conventional grille at the front of the vehicle.

Some vehicles disguise the lower air intake with a grille above the bumper which is not functional, like the Dodge Avenger coupe and Chrysler Sebring of the same generation.
