Chrysler 300C dimensions

Imposing looks is one of the key reasons why many people buy a Chrysler 300C. The rectangular headlamps plus the squared-off nose and tail have a Bentley-esque exterior. With its high waistline and shallow glasshouse the Chrysler 300C looks seriously aggressive. Throw in the privacy glass and mesh grille that most vehicles come with and it's no wonder that many people liken the Chrysler 300C to a gangster's vehicle.

As an executive-size saloon, in terms of practicality the Chrsyler Chrysler 300C saloon has size on its side, although the separate boot limits this. Ultimate practicality is further limited by the fact that the back seatings don't fold, which is why 504 litres is the most you can fit into the Chrysler 300C. Buy the more expensive Jaguar XF instead though and the boot can take up to 920 litres with the back seatings folded or 500 litres with them in place. More cool is the dashboard room. The Chrysler 300c's cab provides ample space for those in the front as well as the rear.

The SRT-8 comes with just one trim level, while there are two versions for the Chrysler 300C 3. 0-litre CRD. Entry-level vehicles carry SE badges and come with parking sensors front and back, leather trim, dual-zone conditioning and eight-way electrically adjustable seatings, xenon lights, self-levelling suspension, cruise control and 18-inch alloy wheels. For an extra £1000, you can splash out on SR trim which brings touch-screen sat-nav with voice control along with a seven-speaker 380-watt hi-fi that's Ipod-ready. Also included is a 30GB hard drive for audio cargo, a Bluetooth hands-free phone connection plus walnut trim highlights around the cab. The 3. 0-litre CRD SRT tops the range with its 20-inch alloy wheels, mesh grille, wheel arch extensions, carbon-effect dashboard trim plus suede inserts for the seatings.
