2011 Chrysler 300 Details and Photos Leaked

With a little under a month left before the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) opens its doors in Detroit, another one of the contraptions to be shown there has been revealed, more or less officially. The new Chrysler 300C, a slightly revised version of the current generation, will be one of the main attractions at the show for the American manufacturer who goes by the same name. The model, tweaked in terms of aesthetics, performance and comfort, will be priced starting from $28,000 for the V6 engined version and from $38,000 for the V8 one. The two engines for the model have been created for performance. The V6, a Pentastar unit fitted onto the Touring and Limited models, develops 292 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The V8 on the other hand is a HEMI 5.7l with Fuel Saver Technology which will deliver 360 horsepower and 390-pound-feet of torque. According to Motor Trend, the new 300C will bring with it a new exterior, adorned with the same front grille like the Chrysler 200, LED projector-beam headlights and C-shaped LED daytime running lights. At the interior, the revised model brings HVAC controls, an optional 8.4-inch infotainment screen and Garmin navigation. Other details about the changes brought to the vehicle's interior, exterior and engines will be announced as we get closer to the presentation date. autoevolution will be attending the 2011 North American International Auto Show, so stay tuned for some real up close and personal shots of the vehicles, as well as for first-hand details of the motorized contraptions.
