New Rear-wheel-drive Chassis for Great Handling

Transferring all this power to the pavement is Chrysler’s new rear-wheel-drive chassis architecture. Rear-wheel drive offers the best vehicle balance and handling with front wheels steering and rear wheels driving.

Overall, the Chrysler 300C Sedan is engineered to offer a smooth, quiet and luxurious ride while maintaining a feeling of control and confidence. For markets outside of North America, 300C Sedan has a unique steering, suspension calibration and wheel and tyre set-up that is adapted toward higher-speed ride and handling.

The HEMI-powered Chrysler 300C offers even more athletic and nimble suspension and steering characteristics, with the front and rear suspension tuned for greater handling performance. A well-damped ride with reduced body roll gives the customer a precise and responsive driving experience.

The short- and long-arm front suspension together with a five-link independent rear suspension provides excellent handling and ride characteristics. Power rack and pinion steering makes parking easier without compromising steering performance at speed, balancing comfort and ease of operation with feel and responsiveness.

An anti-lock braking system (ABS), all-speed traction control and Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) are all standard on Chrysler 300C Sedan. This integrated system benefits from state-of-the-art electronics that provide much faster response than in the past.
