2023 Chrysler 300

Engine Type

Down to three trims for 2023, the Chrysler 300 has the Touring (with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive), the Touring L (with RWD or AWD), and the 300S with RWD. The standard engine is still a 3.6-liter V6 engine optimized with variable valve timing (VVT) for better performance and fuel efficiency, able to generate 287 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Only the 300S can opt-in for the 5.7-liter V8 engine, equipped with a multi-displacement system (MDS) and VVT for better performance and fuel efficiency, able to produce a best-in-class 363 horsepower.

Driving and Handling

Power is transferred through a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission. Although the 300S can come with a V8, its MDS helps to conserve fuel, making the fuel economy the same for every trim. The 2023 Chrysler 300 has a fuel economy of 19/30 mpg city/highway.

Exterior Features

Standard features on all trims past the base (Touring) include power heated mirrors, exterior mirrors with courtesy lamps and supplemental turn signals, automatic Bi-Xenon headlamps with auto leveling and high beam control, and rain-sensitive windshield wipers. Things get a little sportier with the Touring L, adding Black Noise exterior badging, 20-inch Black Noise wheels, performance front fascia with body-color applique, and premium LED fog lamps. The 300S also comes with Black Noise wheels and adds a performance-tuned suspension with increased spring rates, performance-tuned steering, larger sway bars (with V8 engine only), and Goodyear Eagle F1 three-season tires. The base Touring rides on 17-inch wheels, able to opt-in for 18- and 20-inch wheels available; the Touring L rides on 18-inch wheels, able to opt-in for available 20-inch wheels; and 20-inch wheels are standard on the 300S trims.

Interior Features

The base Touring comes with cloth upholstery, but leather upholstery is on the rest of the lineup. Many of the improved features are on trims past the base, including power driver and passenger seats, and ventilated front seats, heated front seats and second-row seats, and the option to add a dual-pane panoramic sunroof and a heated steering wheel. The 300S also comes with a Sport driving mode and paddle shifters. A soon to-be-announced 2023 model special-edition Chrysler 300 could add more features.
