If you have taken a peek at the latest 2021 Chrysler 300 lineup, then you may have noticed that the standard powertrain is a V6 unit. For those of you wanting more pep underneath the hood, however, you can always opt for the available V8 block included with the top-tier S trim level.
Â
Known as the 5.7-litre HEMI V8, this particular motor is coupled with the same TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission as its V6 sibling. You also still have a choice between RWD and AWD. However, the output is much improved, delivering 363 hp and 394 lb-ft of torque.
Â
This option delivers more than high-performance, however. It also emphasizes economy. Variable Valve Timing (VVT) technology, along with a Multi-Displacement System (MDS), helps to save on resources - allowing drivers to achieve 14.7 L/100 km (16 mpg) in the city and 9.4 L/100 km (25 mpg) on the highway. Take the 2021 300 S on every adventure, no longer fretting over having to find a fuel station.
