Well, take a seat in it and you’ll know! I was impressed with this luxury sedan as soon as I opened the door. The first things that stood out to me, being a detail person, were the beautiful black leather seats that were accented with double-stitched white trim. After I adjusted the power seats, I used the integrated controls on the four-spoke steering wheel to choose a radio station via uconnect (touch screen media hub).

As soon as I left the Paul Sherry dealership parking lot, I drove about a quarter mile before I hit the railroad tracks. Normally, I would slow way down before driving over railroad tracks, but I wanted to see how the Chrysler 200 handled a bumpy and uneven surface – to my surprise, it handled beautifully and perfectly smooth. When I turned onto the access road to merge onto the highway, I took the “S” curve at full speed. The [...]

Who says Chrysler Group is only known for its trucks and SUVs?

The pending launch of the all-new 2013 Dodge Dart this quarter combined with amazing growth in our car sales — lead by the Chrysler 200 — means that the company’s reputation for trucks and SUVs will need to be reconsidered by many.

Chrysler Group’s March 2012 sales were again lead by our cars — with a 53% growth compared to March 2011 for a total of 51,514 sold.

And, which car is leading the charge?

It’s none other than the original Imported from Detroit star, the Chrysler 200.

For March, the Chrysler 200 was our #2 top seller with 14,914 sold — pretty good for a 121% increase over March 2011. That was easily the best-selling month in the 200’s relatively short life.

While we don’t officially give out specific retail sales numbers, we can say that March retail sales for the 200 [...]

In our Moab off-roading guidebook is an entry for the Cliffhanger Trail. Under the “Trail Difficulty” section, it reads, “Trail not suitable for most stock vehicles.” The key word there is “most,” because they clearly weren’t talking about the stock 2012 Jeep® Wrangler Sport. At the 46th Annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari, Jeep Blog spent a day navigating Cliffhanger, one of the toughest (but most rewarding) trails in Moab. Among several modified Jeep Wranglers in our group was the unquestioned champion of the day:  a stock, manual transmission 2012 Jeep Wrangler Sport. With just a few add-ons for protection from the harsh ledges (a stock Jeep Wrangler Rubicon rock rail and bumpers for testing), the entry level Jeep Wrangler performed just as capably as the rest of the group – and won some people over in the process. Jeep Brand engineer Jim Repp drove the stock 2012 Jeep Wrangler Sport all week in Moab, taking [...]

At first sight of the Chrysler 200, it looks like a compact car that is focused on gas mileage. What will give the 200 the initial impression of the “compact car” is the size. But of course you will see the 200 at the dealership, and nine times out of ten times, it will be sitting next to the older brother, the Chrysler 300. Then I thought to myself,

“what is Chrysler doing trying to make just a fuel-efficient car?”

But just as I thought I was climbing into a compact small fuel-efficient car, I sat inside and you will quickly realize that you were completely wrong. As I sat inside, my immediate attention went straight toward luxurious features the 200 has to offer. The interior has a very clean organized layout, with a traditional hand clock to give it that “luxury” exclamation point that you expect from a Chrysler.

As I adjusted the seat, [...]
