Chrysler 300
Chrysler’s full-size sedan returns for another year, without any big changes once again. Three new body colours and a Red S Appearance Package are available to jazz up the exterior, which continues to withstand the test of time. The engine lineup includes a 3.6-litre V6 that produces up to 300 horsepower and a 5.7-litre HEMI V8—the only eight-cylinder engine in the segment—delivering 363 horsepower. Rear-wheel drive comes standard, though all-wheel drive is optional on many trim levels.
