Chrysler 300: The Bold American Sedan

The 300 is Chrysler's full-size sedan, a bold, rear-drive flagship that revived the brand with available Hemi V8 power.

Launched in 2005, the modern Chrysler 300 revitalized the brand with its bold, upright styling, rear-wheel-drive platform (shared with the Dodge Charger), and available Hemi V8 power. Its commanding presence and accessible luxury made it a sales hit and a cultural icon.

The 300 offered V6 and Hemi V8 engines, available all-wheel drive, and a spacious, comfortable interior. It revived the spirit of the classic 1950s 300 letter series performance cars in a modern full-size package.

Produced into the 2020s, the 300 was one of the last traditional full-size American rear-drive sedans, prized for its style, comfort, and V8 muscle.
