  • 2011 Chrysler 300 in new Imported From Detroit ad

    It all started with Eminem and his appearance in Chrysler’s Super Bowl commercial for the new 2011 Chrysler 200. The title was ‘Imported From Detroit’ and the particular ad was centered around a theme of ‘Born From Fire’. Since then we’ve seen one other Imported From Detroit ad, a special Mother’s Day version with Detroit Lions NFL star Ndamukong Suh, which had a ‘Homecoming’ flavor. Now Chrysler has released its third ad in the series, this time with fashion designer John Varvatos making an appearance and a new theme of...

  • 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8

    More power, improved fuel economy and a trick suspension system means the new 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8 will not only leave its predecessor in the dust, but possibly a few sedans wearing M or AMG badges too. The big bruiser made its world debut this week at the 2011 New York Auto Show and here are the live shots direct from its unveiling. Chrysler chose to show off its new 300 SRT8 in a simple pearlescent white, which certainly garnered some mixed feelings at the show. Nevertheless, it’s evident that the new muscle sedan has a much more mature look than its predecessor, a clear indication...

  • 2012 Chrysler 300C SRT8 spy shots

    The brand new 2011 Chrysler 300 sedan has made its debut but the model we’ve all been waiting for, the high-performance 300C SRT8, won’t be around for at least another a year. Today we have new spy shots of the car testing in prototype form on the streets of Michigan, revealing a few subtle details we can expect on the latest muscle sedan. As previously reported, Chrysler is skipping the 2011 model year for the new-generation of its 300C SRT8, introducing it as a 2012 model instead. This means that engineers still have some time to fine tune its new drivetrain and chassis. Power...

  • 2011 Chrysler 300

    Plans for an eight-speed transmission at Chrysler have been known since last summer, but we have a few new details from the first drive launch of the 2011 Chrysler 300. The ZF-built unit will first appear in the revamped 300 and the 2011 Dodge Charger , and it will feature some distinguishing elements from other ZF eight-speed gearboxes. The eight-speed auto won't arrive until later this year, and it's not yet clear if the cars that get it will wear 2011 or 2012 model-year designations. Both Audi and BMW use ZF-built eight-speeds, but the Chrysler unit will use an Audi-style lever-type...
