Design

Evaluation of a new Chrysler sedan 300p is impossible without understanding that this machine - the product of combining the two avtokultur - American and German. Self absorbed the traits of both. |

Chrysler designers have developed a new approach, which enabled the company to return to the market for rear wheel drive car-class «suites». The long hood and short trunk, raised the lower limit of the high glass doors and lower the side windows, together form a distinctive image of sedan Chrysler 300C. Dominant feature of the design Chrysler 300C is the design of the grille. Emphasis is high, it smoothly above outlines the bonnet and front bumper. This design decision - a tribute to the late issuance of Chrysler cars fifties, which were read the same symbol.

Interiors

The salon is exquisite decoration - light skin, insert a wooden (natural California walnut), the ideal ranges, stylish dashboard, and the right - color screen navigation system. What else? The hatch in the roof, a very decent music system Boston Acoustics Class «premium» power of 380 W from a CD-changer, air conditioning unit with air purification system, the analog clock in a separate window. In short, there are all that comfortable to travel long distances. And in the rear seats (check) space for the legs and over your head is enough. They are, by the way, add up to a 40/60 ratio, that is, you can increase the luggage compartment, which already provides 442 liters of useful space.

Engines and transmissions

Buying Chrysler 300C from Europe will be offered a choice of three engine options. In the standard - this is V-shaped six-engine with an output of 2.7 liters and 193 hp This engine has been upgraded, increasing the torque at low speed. Maximum torque is 258 Nm at 4000 rpm. In the frequency range of rotation from 2100 to 3400 rpm the torque value has been increased by 10%. This engine agregatiruetsya 4-speed automatic gearbox.

The other two engines are installed on request. These engines - V6 volume of 3.5 liters and the newest version of the legendary HEMI V-8. Like the engine volume of 2.7 liters, 3.5-liter engine was subjected to modernization will increase the value of torque. His power is 253 hp, while the maximum value of torque - 339 Nm. The engine is coupled with the same gearbox as the engine is smaller working volume.

Crowned the full range of engine 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 Magnum. This engine has the hemispheric combustion chamber, designed in the cylinder head of aluminum alloy. These enable the combustion chamber to reduce fuel consumption, increase power and torque. By the name of this engine is required to precisely hemispherical combustion chamber. Concept HEMI engine has been redesigned for the modern technology. As a result, has an updated engine with high performance. Rated power - 340 hp (on DIN), maximum torque - 525 Nm. This is a record for the engines of cars Chrysler, released in 1970.

What can not fail to surprise, it is surprising efficiency V8. Of course, in reality the average fuel consumption per 100 km. run at 11.4 liters of hard to believe. And the company says in this case, only «on the approximate consumption». However, the system Multi Displacement System (MDI) from the accounts will not reset. The system disables the 4 cylinder, when there is no need to use all eight. And for the driver's transition from one regime to another totally invisible - it is carried out in just 40 milliseconds.

Safety

Design provides only two front airbags, although adaptive, and two inflatable curtains over the windows. In principle, a lot, but a car of this class wants to see six to eight airbags. It also establishes antiprobuksovochnaya system that works in all speeds (such a system is first installed on the vehicles Chrysler), and the system Dynamic Stability Control (brand name - the dynamic stabilization program ESP). All these systems are installed in the base.
