In its final year, the 2023 Chrysler 300C will be produced as a special edition using a 392 cubic inch Hemi V8—the same engine size and type as in the original 1957 300C. But you probably can’t buy one, if you haven’t already signed up to do so. After revealing the new car, Chrysler put … Read more
The Chrysler 300 will be discontinued after the 2023 model year, but before the sleek luxury sedan races off into the sunset, the company is offering one final high performance model. The 2023 Chrysler 300C doesn’t have as distinct of a name as did the 2014 Chrysler 300 SRT8, but the 2023 300C packs more … Read more
As Chrysler told owners five days ago, tomorrow, September 13, will be the official reveal of one of their “most luxurious and powerful special edition vehicles to date.” Most observers expect this to be a 300C with the 392 cubic inch, 6.4 liter Hemi V8 engine used in the closely related Dodge Charger and Dodge … Read more
Chrysler’s revival is due in mid-to-late 2024 with a series of electric and possibly “electrified” (hybrid-electric) vehicles. In the meantime, buyers were promised one final hurrah in the form of a Chrysler 300 special edition, and it seems it will be a 300C just like the original 1957—in that it packs a 392 cubic inch … Read more
Chrysler’s revival is due in mid-to-late 2024 with a series of electric and possibly “electrified” (hybrid-electric) vehicles. That makes the marque’s recent Facebook post all the more puzzling: The range of explanations includes a special-edition Chrysler 300C, powered by the 392 engine—an engine whose displacement intentionally replicates that of the biggest and most powerful of … Read more
Ram New for 2023 is an optional 12-inch digital gauge cluster with “nearly two dozen” different menus, five tiles for quick data, analog or digital readouts, and user profiles—on all types of Ram truck including chassis cabs.

When Walter P. Chrysler proudly introduced the revolutionary Chrysler 80, he probably had no idea that his name would one day be attached to a skyscraper, air conditioning systems, railroad cars, and athletic leisure wear. The Athleisure Merchandise Collection was created in collaboration with Winnie Cheung, the chief designer of Stellantis’ advance studio. It has hoodies, … Read more
Way back in January, we reported that then-new Chrysler CEO Christine Feuell was planning an expansion or revitalization of the brand.
