2013 Chrysler 300 Motown Edition Review

Inside, the new 2013 Chrysler 300 Motown is further proof that style and luxury can come from a place like the Motor City. Unique Pearl White Nappa leather seating with perforated inserts are surrounded by a black interior environment for a contemporary look. Tying in the contrasting interior theme are black piping and accent stripes on the seats, while a debossed “Motown” logo on the front seatbacks provide thoughtful detail. Extensive use of Piano Black on interior center stack, instrument panel, steering wheel, gauge cluster and door panel elements provide a uniquely lacquered and highly detailed appearance. Completing this special-edition interior environment are authentic Black Olive Ash wood trim and satin silver finished accents.

Once limited to premium import vehicles costing twice as much, the Chrysler 300 Motown features a segment-exclusive ZF eight-speed automatic transmission paired with its award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine for best-in-class V-6 fuel efficiency with up to an EPA estimated 31 highway mpg. With 292 horsepower on tap and a state-of-the-art transmission design, the Chrysler 300 Motown delivers world-class precision and refinement.

Making sure the soul of Motown can be heard and felt, this limited-edition Chrysler sedan includes 100 tracks from original Motown recording artists loaded on the Uconnect 8.4′s SD card reader. State-of-the-art Uconnect 8.4 provides Chrysler 300 Motown passengers with the segment’s largest touchscreen display (8.4-inch) and mobile infotainment, connectivity and multimedia features. Delivering a sound experience as the artist intended, the segment-exclusive 10-speaker Beats Audio system with 12-channel amplifier and proprietary Beats Audio algorithm is also available.

The 2013 Chrysler 300 Motown arrives at Chrysler’s US dealerships in the spring of 2013 and has a U.S. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $32,995, excluding $995 destination charge.
