Review: 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum – Part 5

So I’ve come to the end of the review of the Chrysler 300C Platinum which means that I need to tie up some loose ends. My final fuel economy was 14.1 L/100 KM’s in mixed city and highway driving. Most of which was in rush hour traffic save for one highway trip. I’m okay with this as this was a V8 and there were times where I did take advantage of all 8 cylinders. One thing to note is that the 300C Platinum prefers upscale fuel.

The 300C Platinum goes for $51,125 as tested, and that includes freight. But you can get a 300 for as little as $38,195 with a V6 and rear wheel drive. You also get an option for all wheel drive mated to the V6 (all wheel drive is not available with a V8) and the ability to build it with as little or as much kit as you want. Plus there’s a few options that were available on the 300C that I didn’t get on my test vehicle. Thus you can get exactly the 300 that you want. If you’re looking to cross shop it, good competitors are the Acura TLX, Buick La Crosse, and Cadillac CTS, which all lack the option of a V8 engine of any sort, never mind a HEMI V8.

If you want a powerful car that has a lot of room, luxurious, and is a great highway cruiser, you should have the 300C on your list. It ticks all those boxes and you’ll enjoy every minute of your time in it.
