2023 Chrysler 300 Review, Ratings, Specs, Prices, and Photos
What kind of vehicle is the 2023 Chrysler 300? What does it compare to?
The 2023 Chrysler 300 carries on as the flagging brand’s flagship (and only) sedan. This large four-door blends luxury and performance as a modern interpretation of classic Detroit. It compares to its cousin, the Dodge Charger, as well as the Genesis G80 and Nissan Altima. Chrysler has confirmed the 300 will end after the 2023 model year.

Dated as it is, the 300 still has potential to entertain, and it makes for a comfortable road trip companion despite its incessant thirst. It earns a TCC Rating of 5.2 out of 10. (Read more about how we rate cars.)
What’s new for the 2023 Chrysler 300?
Chrysler resurrects the 300C and drops in a 485-hp 6.4-liter V-8 for its swan song. More driver-assist features are available on the entry-level Chrysler 300 as well.
Last year saw a simplification of the trim lineup, but otherwise, the 300 has been unchanged for some time, with a classic look that has aged gracefully.
Under the hood, you’ll find a 3.6-liter V-6 or one of two endangeredV-8 engines. A smooth 8-speed auto gearbox hustles power toward the rear or all four wheels. Both powertrains are slick, but the V-8 performs with admirable swagger. Fuel efficiency is subpar, though base models can flirt with 30 mpg in highway driving.
The 300 impresses in terms of comfort, with excellent ride quality and a spacious interior. Seats are supportive throughout, and the trunk can swallow plenty of bags. The 300 lacks Chrysler’s best and brightest infotainment tech, but the older system still works well.
Safety, though, is a big drawback, with terrible scores from the IIHS and the NHTSA, and hardly any crash-avoidance technology included as standard equipment.
How much does the 2023 Chrysler 300 cost?
Chrysler hadn’t published 2023 prices, except for the range-topping 300C. Production will be capped at 2,200 units at a price of $55,000. Otherwise, expect the 2023 Chrysler 300 to start at about $35,000. It’s sold in Touring, Touring L, and 300S grades. Touring keeps it simple with cloth upholstery and an 8.4-inch touchscreen, while higher grades get dressed up with leather and even some unique exterior trim for the S.
Where is the 2023 Chrysler 300 made?
It’s built in Canada, at least for one more year.
