The Chrysler 300 is a full-size luxury car manufactured and marketed by Stellantis North America and its predecessor companies as a four-door sedan and station wagon in its first generation (model years 2005–2010) and solely as a four-door sedan in its second and current generation (model years 2011–present).

Chrysler 300 Touring Standard equipment includes a 292-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, 17-inch alloy wheels and all-season tires.

Ontario, Canada Production of the 300 will end next year after the 2023 model year, according to Stellantis , Chrysler's parent company. The car is produced in Ontario, Canada, alongside the Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger cars, which also are ending production next year.

The 'C-' designation was applied to all Chrysler models and the coupe was built on the C-68 New Yorker Series. For marketing purposes the car was called the "300" in order to further reinforce the 300 hp (220 kW) engine installed.

The Chrysler 300 was considered the businessman's muscle car when it arrived in 1955 with a blend of style and rear-wheel-drive performance flowing from the early Hemi V-8 engine.

The company pioneered the “muscle car,” beginning with the 1955 C-300, featuring a 300-horsepower hemi V-8 engine, and following with the outstanding 1960 Chrysler 300 F. Popular high-performance cars of the 1960s included the Chrysler 300 coupes, the Chrysler Imperial LeBaron, the Dodge Charger, and the Dodge Coronet.

Similarly, Consumer Reports rates the Chrysler 300 as above average in terms of reliability, with a predicted reliability rating of 3 out of 5 for the 2021 model year. This rating considers owner-reported problems and other factors, such as the frequency of repairs, the severity of issues, and the cost of repairs.

Many people say that Chrysler 300 has a Mercedes-Benz engine. This is the real fact that models of Chrysler 300 made from 2005 to 2010 were equipped with the 3.0L OM642 turbo-diesel V6 engines used in overseas markets.

The interesting thing about the 300C is that it was largely based on the W210-generation Mercedes E-Class built between 1995 and 2003 (though parts of the 300C are arguably more closely-related to the earlier W124-generation E-Class built between 1984 and 1996).
