2016 CHRYSLER 300 ALLOY EDITION: Making its Windy City debut at the Chicago Auto Show is the 2016 Chrysler 300 Alloy Edition, adding a uniquely expressive version of the popular large four-door model. And it’s not just a powerful design, the rear-wheel-drive handling capability has been improved with new performance-tuned suspension, spring rates, steering and bushings, plus, larger sway bars (with V-8 engine) and Goodyear Eagle F1 Three-season tires. Buyers can select the standard 300-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine paired to the state-of-the-art TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission with Sport mode and paddle shifters. Or, the 363-hp 5.7L Hemi V-8 engine with four-cylinder mode fuel saver technology and uniquely sculpted side sills and deck lid spoiler. And, for even more all-weather traction, the ’16 Chrysler 300S Alloy Edition with the 3.6L V-6 can be ordered with AWD. Visually, the 300S Alloy Edition prominent grille is finished in a dark bronze tone, while the gloss black dimensional textured grille is fitted with titanium-finished Chrysler wing badge. Gloss black accents the headlamps and body color mirror caps, LED tail lamps and titanium-plated exhaust tips. The five-passenger interior includes an exclusive black Nappa leather with caramel accent stitching on the sport-contoured heated front and rear seats, instrument cluster bezel, steering wheel and armrests. A seven-inch full-color driver info display and class-exclusive electronic rotary transmission shifter come standard. A palette of five exterior colors is offered to amplify the muscular exterior, including shades called Redline tri-coat pearl and Black Forest green pearl coat. And like all 300 models, the tailored trunk on the 300S Alloy Edition handles up to 16.3 cubic feet of sporting gear or vacation luggage.
