2013 New Chrysler 300 SRT8

Sunday, December 28, 2014

The biggest change Chrysler Q-ship (Google) for the year 2013 and consists of an adaptive suspension update and monitor the launch, and adding new Core "entry price" 300 SRT8. In all other ways, this 300 is same sedan disgust we know and love, with 6.4-liter V-8 under the hood making 470 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. While the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT got a new eight-speed automatic transmission paired Hemi, stuck in slushbox 300 with the old five-speed for at least another year.

On the road, and the acceleration of the 300 SRT8 from 0-60 mph within 4.3 seconds and the quarter mile completed in 12.7 seconds at 112.0 miles per hour, making it faster and faster Chrysler 300 that weve tested than ever. The numbers correspond to the Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE or Ford Mustang GT Maserati Gran Turismo will surprise the driver sport. Let the 300 SRT8 to continue and eventually will reach a top speed of 175 mph - just keeping effort to the Texas Mile. Braking and handling are also top-notch performance for Chrysler. Large sedans best stop from 60 mph in 105 feet and completed a figure eight in 25.4 seconds at 0.78 g (average). SRT8 300 of them faster rate eight times, but relatively thin 245 - wide tires hold on to a five-speed automatic transmission.


Although the path impressive capabilities, SRT8 300 in items that sailed under the radar. In the city, and SRT8 is very tame and comfortable that you will not realize it was anything special until you open the tap. I got my girlfriend quite a surprise after throttle wide open running a short highway onramp.

Although that has been controlled release added, its much easier to get 300 means will quickly fashioned, with adjustable accelerator. Launch control process to some extent seems simple: full stop, press the traction control button twice, and put the foot firmly on the brakes, apply full throttle quickly. Will increase the engine speed to 1825 rpm before releasing the brakes and the car took off, but in practice, it is very difficult to make it work without doing the burning. Now that I think about it, maybe this is the way it should be.


Another new feature for 2013 is the 300 for three commentary updated status. Three modes are auto, sport, track. Auto is the default mode, and will automatically adjust the suspension depends on the quality of the road youre currently on. The sport suspension tightened up, add a little weight to guidance, and make a great car a little more about mental road which is not ideal. Track, the most aggressive setting, with sports and sports adding mode to transmit it to the mix. Three modes to be nice, but I finally found both the sport and the track Socals very difficult for the road and leave a comment in the auto default setting.

As the cool new features in the 300, and possibly the city, these missiles are the most at home on the highway. On the highway, and was SRT8 buttoned down tight and it is built like a bank vault. Its actually a very quiet inside that I found myself approaching the century mark a couple of times without noticing it during a cruise to San Diego. Although the SRT8 300 is a true cruiser, and emphasized rapid unfortunately how this needs to be a new transport. Rather strange, and the transfer of 470 hp makes the beast feels a bit lazy when he urged. He was reluctant to switch to the bottom, as if to make sure I really wanted to release the horses 470 (which I did). In fact, excellent torque Hemi that helped a little bit, but I can not help but get the feeling that the eight-speed transmission will make SRT8 300 is truly world class.


As expected, the 300 very nice inside. Although I was initially a bit off of the fact that the radar red paint is a mixture of fabric and leather, and I grew up actually really like the combo. All materials are of high quality, great looks, and as an added bonus, the fabric helps hold me in place during cornering heavy chair a chair but do it alone. Sofa seats are heated and cooled like, and very comfortable in the long highway trips.

Further ado and Chrysler 300 SRT8 does not come cheap. Started in our lab $ 47.815, including destination and $ 1,000 spent fuel tax, and almost filled with, among other things, a killer sounding 19 - speaker audio system Harmon / Kardon, package SafetyTec, double sunroof part panoramic, The chrome and black groups (which include black chrome wheels) for a total of $ 59.245.



In the end the best parallel to the Chrysler 2013 300 SRT8 wonderful is that it is very much like tends advanced nuclear cruise missiles Air Force stealth. Both missiles and Chrysler quickly, fly under the radar, and pack quite a punch. And SRT8 300 is a true Q-ship, modern and after the broadcast, can be considered one of the most important bed.
