There are firms that, although time passes and lower their media profile, always have the ability to surprise. It is a fact that occurs in mythical manufacturers, those with the most history behind them. The reason for this is very simple and has to do with the number of successful models they have marketed in their career. And very soon we will attend the official debut of a vehicle that, although mistreated by the public, will drive the most burnt out crazy.
Do you remember the Chrysler 300C? Yes, that Yankee sedan that was not liked in Europe and that ended its days with the Lancia logo on its front. Well, the current generation is still for sale and that was released in 2011. But the Yankee house has kept it until now because there was demand and, in addition, they have updated it every so often. Nevertheless, will soon leave the market and to say goodbye they have prepared a very very special version. You'll see…
This vitaminized Chrysler 300C will be sold in a very, very, limited edition… and we still don't know how it will be…
Some days ago Chrysler posted an enigmatic teaser saying they would "bring back power in 2023". At one point the rumor mill began to speculate on what they could be up to. However, it did not fit that the communication team announced a new model. Especially considering that its next releases will be electric and are scheduled for a couple of years, at the very least. The key was another and we already know it...
Chrysler and Dodge are laying offthrough the front door, to 5.7 V8 HEMI Hellcat engine that in these years so much joy has given them. So, taking into account that the current 300C has not had any spicy cut version, it was sung that it was about it. So, we all hope that the 300C will receive the Hellcat treatment and for that it will debut a more powerful image thanks to the inclusion of a new bumper and front hood.
Regarding the mechanical performance, the 300C Hellcat is expected to make 362 kW (492 hp) of power and 644 Nm of torque. If so, it would be a bit more powerful than the SRT they sold many years ago. As for the transmission, it is to be expected that it will be automatic, although the brand's engineers could give us a surprise if they dared to install a manual one. In any case, the teaser they have published hints that he will be fat...
With everything, we will leave doubts in a matter of hours but there is one thing that is already clear. The reservation book will open before spring 2023 and its sale will be very limited. The saddest thing of all is that it will not be seen in Europe…
