Overview

The Chrysler 300 LX last had a manufacturer update on 04/01/2009. For 2009, the Chrysler 300, carried over from last year, returns in nine models--300 C, Limited and Touring in RWD or AWD, and LX and SRT8 RWD sedans. Chrysler has attempted to simplify the line-up for several of its vehicles, including the 300. In doing so, the Base model vehicles see higher trim and content equipment at reduced price points over previous years. Additionally, more fuel efficient powertrains are offered across the model line. For the 300, the Touring is now the entry level model, though the new Base trim retains the "Touring" interior and exterior appointments. It is available with either a 2.7L V6 (RWD only) or HO 3.5L engine. A WPC Touring Signature Edition is now available, and comes with 18-inch wheels, ride control, AWD, navigation system, and side impact airbags. The Chrysler 300 LX saw minor changes in 2009, and is expected to be redesigned in 2012.
