The Chrysler 300The iconic model of the American brand, disappears from the list in 2024. Only Vans Pacifica and Grand Caravan it will remain.
“In the past, the Chrysler 300 was very successful. He restored the image of the brand, which it needed,” explains columnist Antoine Joubert.
Exclusive edition
To celebrate the car’s success, Chrysler is selling a special edition of 200 copies in Canada. The 300C is powered by a 6.4-liter V8 that develops 485 horsepower and 475 lb-ft. “It is the most powerful Chrysler 300 that has been sold since it was relaunched in 2005,” he said.
The less powerful Touring and Touring L versions use a 3.6-liter V6. “In both cases, you can get all-wheel drive as an option, but otherwise (the cars) come with rear-wheel drive,” adds Antoine. The 300S can be equipped with a 5.7-liter HEMI V8.
An aging car
Unfortunately, the 300 model is long-lived. Indeed, the design has not changed much since 2011. “Here we have a car in which the technology is not completely updated, but that does not make it a less attractive car in terms of power,” continues the expert.
On the other hand, he is not particularly impressed with the comfort of the seats or with the soundproofing of the cabin. Less comfort: the 3.6 and 5.7 liter engines are examples of reliability, even if consumption remains higher than the competition.
