The new Chrysler 300C will cost from £35,995 when it hits UK showrooms in June.
The 300C is available with one engine only – a 3.0-litre V6 diesel, which produces 236bhp and 398lb ft of torque.
Chrysler claims the 300C will return a combined fuel economy figure of 39.8mpg with 185-191g/km CO2 emissions (dependent on wheel size).
Inside the 300C’s cabin, the new car features the “largest standard colour touch-screen display and the largest sunroof in its segment,” according to the marque.
Entry-level ‘Limited’ spec cars get heated seats, load-levelling suspension and height control and hill start assist as standard, while top-spec ‘Executive’ cars (£39,995) add adaptive cruise control, a blind-spot monitoring system, keyless entry, electric rear sunshade, and heated leather seats

Re: New Chrysler 300C on sale June
Chrysler has to offer the 6.1 Hemi engine here as a halo option, I quite agree. Without it, the 300C becomes just another largish car that can only be had with a diesel.
While we're at it, the 6.4 (392) would be even better.
Re: New Chrysler 300C on sale June
The more i see of the new 300C the more i like it (except its £10K price rise; has the price gone up much in the States?), and although the Hemi has appeal to me, again i know this would be a minority choice, without a manual i would never seriously consider one, and that was never going to happen.
Re: New Chrysler 300C on sale June
Agreed - without the aggressive looks and big V8 available in the previous model, the new 300C has lost much of it's novelty value.
Sadly I can't see this being a success in the UK
