Chrysler 300C Sophistication

Chrysler 300C Sophistication

Author: Tomas Yoko
Date: 2014-03-21
Test-driving the Chrysler 300C V6 3.0L CRD was one of the highlights of the year. The total package of power, handling, luxury, technological advancement, sophisticated design and first world styling had me feeling like the head of the CIA as I swished through the traffic circles and turned heads as I accelerated with gusto into the distance.  

Driving the powerful 176 kilowatt three litre V6 diesel Chrysler 300C, which effortlessly produces 550 Newton meters of torque rally made me feel like a Boss. The unadulterated feeling of pure American power harnessed with the sophistication and extravagance of any luxury saloon on the market was exhilarating. 

Chrysler have produced an iconic vehicle with the 300C and bundled world class handling with the ultra-premium leather, state-of-the-art connectivity and superior driver assistance features. So refined, the braking grabs hold of the mass that is the 300C and slows you down with an intense feeling of total control. 

Other derivatives of the Chrysler 300C that are available are the fuel-efficient V6 petrol option and the mind boggling SRT8, which is a 6.4 litre V8 monster. 

Along with all the sophistication and style, the Chrysler 300C offers you an element of "street cred" to go with the ultra luxury saloon statement. I loved the attention this car afforded me while I was driving it. 

But over and above the thrilling acceleration and nimble handling of such a big vehicle, the Chrysler 300C also provided a sense of refinement, and that just made me want one even more. The automatic gearbox was really impressive and added an extra something to the driving experience.
