Road Test

The bold styling of the Chrysler 300 draws a lot of attention, but in most ways the V6-equipped 300 Touring wasn't a standout in our testing. The 300 Touring's V6 is strong, but not as refined as some competing engines. It handles soundly, but not exceptionally. However ride is supple and controlled. Interior materials have good fit and finish, but they don't stand out in this class. The claustrophobic cabin and limited outward visibility are detractions. Rear seat room is good, but the trunk is somewhat small.

Model History
2011-
Current Generation

A much-improved redesign arrived for 2011, making this car a respectable, large luxury cruiser. The spacious and luxuriously trimmed interior is quiet and offers an accommodating rear seat. With plenty of trunk space, the 300 is also great for road trips. Its well-tailored cabin is packed with useful features and amenities, including Chrysler's easy-to-use optional Uconnect 8.4 touch-screen infotainment system. This touch-screen infotainment interface is one of the best out there. A very nice eight-speed automatic was added to the V6 in 2012 and extended to the V8s three years later. A full suite of electronic drivers' aids is offered; including forward-collision warning with auto brake, lane-departure warning with assist, and active cruise control. Blind-spot warning with rear-cross-traffic alert is also offered. 2023 is the 300's final year.

2005-2010
2005 Redesign Year
Boldly styled, the Chrysler 300 replaced the 300M for 2005, offering a choice of two V6 engines or, in 300C trim, a strong 340-hp V8. While its look attracted a lot of attention and the interior was exceptionally roomy, the styling also impeded outward visibility and made the cabin feel claustrophobic. Dynamically, this version of the 300C accelerates well, but drinks fuel and its handling is unexceptional. We found the ride in the V6 Touring trim to be supple and controlled, but the 300C feels stiffer. IIHS side-crash tests without the optional side airbags were poor. Curtain airbags were added as a standard feature for 2010.
