2008 Chrysler 300 C AWD sedan 4dr automatic

Advertisements

The Chrysler 300C is the performance version of the Chrysler 300, only with the addition of a standard Hemi V8.Available in all-wheel drive.

Chrysler's 340hp 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 engine powers the 300C Hemi and all-wheel drive Base models through a five-speed automatic transmission. The engine is intelligently able to shut down select cylinders which conserve gas. Standard features such as, Smart Beam headlamps, four-wheel-disc antilock brakes, traction control and an electronic stability control system enhance safety.

The 300C AWD is equipped with a standard 5.7-liter, V8, 340-horsepower engine that achieves 15-mpg in the city and 18-mpg on the highway. A 5-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard.

300C is responsive at any speed; 6.3 second 0-60, says Chrysler. In Consumer Guide testing, 300s with the 3.5 V6 averaged 19.5 mpg in rear-drive form, 19.7-19.9 with AWD. Test 300C averaged 14.4 mpg in mixed driving, 17.9 mpg with more highway use. Test AWD 300C averaged 16.8 with a slight highway bias. The 300's ride is generally smooth, though some of our testers complain of annoying jiggling on rippled freeways. Ride is less composed on AWD models, with sharp pounding over road imperfections.

Chrysler says interior materials have improved across the 2008 300 lineup, including the addition of more soft-touch surfaces. The cabin is modestly improved, as some budget-grade plastic trim pieces have been retained.
