Aside from impeccable style and high-tech features, the new 2021 Chrysler 300 also boasts an award-winning engine. As Canada’s favourite motor, this unit delivers stellar performance on the roads of BC, Canada.
Â
Popping the hood of any 2021 Chrysler 300 lets you find a 3.6-litre V6 purring underneath. Crafted by Pentastar and offering Variable Valve Timing for enhanced fuel efficiency, it has topped the Ward’s “Best 10 Engines†lists three times!
Â
Pushing out 300 hp and 264 lb-ft of torque, this engine gets around 12.4 L/100 km (23 mpg) in the city and a whopping 7.8 L/100 km (36 mpg) on the highway. What’s even more surprising is that it can tow up to 454 kg (1,000 lbs), which is something you rarely hear about with a sedan.
Â
While rear-wheel-drive is standard, you may also opt for all-wheel-drive for improved traction during the colder months. With either version, this car will always be fitted with the 8-speed automatic transmission from TorqueFlite.
Â
Keep in mind that you can also get the 5.7-litre HEMI V8, which provides 393 hp and 364 lb-ft of torque. Don't fret, though. This block still achieves an impressive 14.7 L/100 km (19 mpg) in the city and 9.4 L/100 km (30 mpg) on the highway - ensuring that you don't compromise efficiency.Â
