Engines and performance
The base of the Chrysler 300 2011 Limited and trim are powered by a 3.6-liter V6 that produces 292 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Rear-wheel drive and a five-speed automatic transmission is standard. Chrysler estimates that this engine will return 18 mpg highway mpg city/27 and 21 combined - pretty impressive given the size of the car, power, and less-than-aerodynamic shape. In performance tests were 300 V6 from zero to 60 km / h in 7.1 seconds.
The Chrysler 300C Hemi gets a 5.7-liter 363 horsepower and 394 lb good-ft of torque V8. It also has rear-wheel drive and five-speed auto, but can also be done with all wheel disc. Chrysler estimates that the 300C will be back to 16/25/19 and 15/23/18 rear-wheel drive with AWD.
Security
Each of the Chrysler 300 is airbags anti-lock disc brakes, stability and traction control, front and side airbags, driver knee airbag and curtain airbags and a half. Rear view camera is standard on all but the bottom 300 SafetyTec Group is available to all but the base 300 and the later collision warning, blind spot warning system, rear cross path detection system, and parking sensors front and rear.
In braking tests, 300 and 17-inch wheels to 60 mph stopped 118 meters short.

Interior Design and Special Features
Gone is the center console, which was like a desktop computer tower. Went four-spoke steering wheel is a huge removed from the USS Constitution. Gone are the Indiglo gauges and square plastic brittle. Chrysler 300 is now hut, which may (just may) be a luxury car buyers think twice before paying extra for a fancy badge. While the look is not what we describe as innovative (or even particularly interesting), it is quite elegant and very relaxed controls are off. Perhaps most impressive, the materials are top quality, with surfaces that are soft and nicely furnished. The difference is really night and day compared to last year's car.
Chrysler uconnect new touch interface is standard. This 8.4-inch touch screen controls many features of the vehicle information and entertainment and is a great improvement in the display is now much lower in other Chrysler Group vehicles. When equipped with the optional Garmin, the original navigation system, the 300 comes with SIRIUS Travel Link, a Ford-exclusive technology because it has real-time information on traffic conditions, weather and movie times, even . However, if you want to nitpick, the standard iPod interface, curiously omits "Playlist" from their menu options available, which is irritating but does not say Chrysler is considering a solution.
The rear view continues to be compromised by thick pillars at the rear, although the increase this year, the windshield more slender improved forward visibility. Passengers must continue to find plenty of room in all dimensions and trunk capacity of 16.3 cubic feet is pretty generous.
Driving Impressions
The new Chrysler 300 2011 slides on the road in a way that reminds us of a great Mercedes-Benz sedan. Its suspension absorbs the broken pavements with many sophisticated, but it does so without being too soft or floating. It will not be the case, you should take in the 20's optional wheels or large parts, so you have been warned, subscribers DUB. Handling is also improved - although the 300 looks in the corners, it still exists. 300 The new electrically assisted steering is also an appropriate weight and feel.
The new V6 provides more than enough power for them to watch full-size sedans. It is smooth, quiet (mostly because of the sound enclosure has plenty) and very fuel efficient because of the weight of 300. But the V8 is additional cost for those addicted to the taste of good old American muscle.
Price $ 27,170
