The Motor City's Heart Comes in Two Sizes: V6 and V8.
Power, efficiency and control all add up in the 2012 Chrysler 300. The 3.6L Pentastar® V6 with 8-speed automatic produces 292 horsepower and a powerfully efficient 19 city / 31 highway mpg+. The Chrysler 300C 5.7L HEMI® V8 delivers a road-gripping 363 horsepower with a gas-sipping 16 city / 25 highway mpg+ — with that power wielded most precisely by the advanced 300C all-wheel-drive system. And with a host of standard control offerings for all trim levels, the Chrysler 300 is built to exceed expectations and do donuts around compromise.
Get up to 60 MPH. ASAP.
The 2012 Chrysler 300 says you've arrived. With the 3.6L Pentastar V6 or the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine, getting 0-60 times+ like these, it says you've arrived quickly.
When Rubber Meets Road, Our Technology
Helps Keep Them Together.
In this city, we know how to work hard. But we also know how to work smart. And it shows in the all-wheel-drive system of the Chrysler 300C — which automatically detects road conditions to determine whether to employ all-wheel drive+ or rear-wheel drive. The active transfer case and front axle disconnect work together to provide an on-demand transition between the two, delivering first-class performance and handling. The all-wheel-drive system, the most advanced in its class, also works in tandem with a host of standard control offerings like ABS, Electronic Stability Control+ (ESC), Traction Control, Brake Assist, Ready Alert Braking, Hill Start Assist, and Rain Brake Support — which applies slight pressure and dries the brake discs as soon as wipers are activated.
We Took the Hard Road to Make a Car that Can Handle one.
With multi-link suspension, the Chrysler 300 delivers a luxurious driving experience no matter what type of road conditions you're driving over. Front suspension hydrobushings — combined with shock absorbers, spring rates and front and rear multi-link suspension geometries — help to reduce road harshness and produce superior handling and ride comfort.
