The 2023 Chrysler 300C Is a TIRE ROASTING Farewell to the Hemi!

I drive the 2023 Chrysler 300C and it's a tire-roasting, rubber-melting grin fest.
This is the 2023 Chrysler 300C and this isn’t the 5.7-liter V8 with just 363 hp that’s available on the 300S Touring. No, this is the full-fat farewell offering with the 392-cubic-inch hemi under the hood. Just 2,000 300C models will be produced for the 2023 model year in the US, after that, the 300 as we know it is done as is the Hemi, so today, I’m going to test it and see how it goes.
It seems fitting that the 300 C gets a fitting send-off, yes it sits on an aging platform from the days of when Daimler owned Chrysler but it doesn't feel as old as it is, something we all wish for.

Under the hood
Chrysler first introduced an SRT8 model in 2011 and discontinued it in 2015, under the hood it had a 425-hp 6.1-liter Hemi. For 2023 this 2023 Chrysler 300C will be powered by a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 that now makes 485 hp and 475 lb-ft driven through an 8-speed torqueflite automatic.
That'll get it to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, through the quarter mile in 12.4 seconds, and up to a 160 mph top speed. Not bad.

2010 ended the 6.1 engine. 2011-2014 was the 6.4 with the 5spd auto. This car was offered outside the U.S. and Canada from 2015 as the SRT.

The little useless thingy in the middle isn't a phone holder, it's the cover for the neutral position switch so you can put it in neutral if you can't start it but need to move it

Actually it holds my wallet quite nicely!
