driven both, I thought the 300 felt faster. The 300 seats are probably more comfortable because it's the Touring trim. The 300s trim has seats that are fairly firm.
My 300c (2018) has a setting in the menu to adjust the steering to sport or touring. Maybe that's why it feels light for you? Love my 300. For me, it's way more comfortable than a charger.
I was looking at chargers for sooooo long since my cobalt jumped timing and destroyed itself. And then this super nice 300 came in to work and the moment I sat in it to clean, I knew it had to be mine! I have never been happier!
Interesting Video‼️ Never been in a 300 but I know it's a Very Popular car. I guess it depends what type of car your looking for, Luxury go 300, Sporty go Charger or Challenger 💯
Hey Racer X the seats in the 300 are softer on purpose because it's more a luxury car and thats why the steering is lighter but why the suspension isn't softer....I don't know 😕
300 if you want a more upscale luxurious vehicle. Charger if you want more of a sporty type car, that’s also relatively cheap. I’ve got a loaded 2019 300C, with the Hemi. I love leather and wood trim and chrome etc. Plus the V8 for some oomph when I stomp on the go pedal 😅
I own a 300 touring with the penstar and its a really great car its a modern luxury car that's why it's softer and lighter to drive, I commute with her 50 + miles one-way I'm over six feet tall and the 300 has more than enough legroom even in the back seat with the divers all the way back. and I've done Florida to Illinois run several times and the car is not a tiring vehicle it cruses at 90 like nothing and takes the clover leaves at 80. I will by another once I pay this one-off, and I'm debating a ripp supercharger for her

I loved my 2018 300 Touring L! RacerX Yes, the seats were softer than any of the modern cars, actually went from a BMW 325i to the Chrysler 300 because of the seats. If you think those cloth seats are soft, you should sit in one with leather. As for the steering, I found that in my 300 limited I was able to change the steering feel in the Settings application, as I recall there were three settings Comfort, Sport, and Normal... I wonder if the Steering setting in the 300 you tested was set to Comfort. I found in Normal and Sport mode the steering was firmer. I greatly enjoyed your videos! Keep them coming!
I know this is an older video and you were discussion these two vehicles with V6 power but I needed to include my feelings and story. I test drove both the Charger RT and the Chrysler 300C. Both with 5.7 Hemi engines. What I discovered was the Charger RT had the better factory exhaust and track apps that the hemi Chrysler doesn't offer. Considering the pricIng, the Black 300C had better styling with 20" rims. I use the look as sinister. It has more comfortable seating than the RT. The 300C had mocha Napa leather seats that's heated/cooled. Heated/Cooled front cup holders and felt more like a Luxury/Sports sedans. The 300C I purchased was a factory demo with 5000 miles. I was able to save over 35% off the $43,500 MSRP. Since the 300C was extremely limited and now discountinued. My deal was fantastic and now with only 19,000 miles. Recently I was offered by the same dealership to buy my car back for what I paid for it. Since it's still under factory warranty and not wanting to lose my warranty. I've added some bolt on parts for performance. A Flow Master performance exhaust, 85mm throttle body, K&N cold air. I visit my local drag strip and run street class bracket racing every other weekend and it fun getting mentioned by the track announcer racing a big Chrysler 300 that's very competitive. My wife's not happy with the loud exhaust, but it's my hobby and I'm extremely happy I selected my 300C. I believe the production of the Chrysler 300 will end completely since the charger and 300 compete against each other. I'm happy I purchased one of the final 300C Hemi
I think in the V6 class Chrysler 300 is the better choice. One is you don't have anybody trying to race you in it and other I think is Mr. Policeman might not take a second look at you. Lol. Love all your videos you & Mrs.X make.
Hybrid Libertarian has a point that few know what engine you have so that doesn't matter. However that Mr. Policeman is less likely to take notice of a 300 is one of the many reasons why I choose a 300, a V8 AWD one. While of course there's faster cars, being stealthy and AWD means I can actually drive faster.
@Hybrid Libertarian With your praise of the interior I'd assume yours is a second gen then? Mine is a '14 and I and apparently most consider the 2011+ interior a big improvement. I think the whole gangster thing has come to really only be applied to the first gen 300 and the Magnum. The 2nd gen IMO has largely avoided that image, not completely and Chrysler using rappers to promote the second gen didn't help, but still. I think it still holds true that outside of how one drives color is the most important thing in avoiding the cops eye. Then sound, then condition, but not just all the aftermarket BS but also if it's run down, damaged, etc. basically if you look like you can't afford car insurance. Followed by the type of car. A well maintained stock grey Charger would do better then a red, riced out, and damaged 300. Mine is Granite and except for mild wheels completely stock in appearance, still quiet, and of course perfectly maintained. The V6, ehh probably usually money, on my sticker the 5.7 is a $2200 bump. Then there's that 15+ AWD is only on with the V6. Plus insurance costs and the 8 speed.
I was hoping you'd pick the 300. Like you said it's going to be sad if they discontinue them. They are very beautiful vehicles and like you said they have two cars that they're dealing with why not just continue the 300. They're freaking awesome looking drivable cars.
Chrysler just announced that they were discontinuing the 300 SRT 392 in Australia so I can't imagine that there's going to be a 300 Hellcat. Though there should be.
@@chris92282 Next time you get an oil change at the dealership. Its this system cleaner they have to clean the engone back to brand new status. It boost the performance and your horsepower. I forgot the name but its well worth it.
I love the outside of the 300. But the interior is outdated. I have a challenger and I was surprised how much cheaper the charger and 300 interior is. I thought the charger has the same exact interior. But alot more hard plastics!
The only reason why the 300 exists is to keep the Chrysler brand alive. The only Chryslers that exist besides the 300 are the Town and Country and the SRT 300 sold in Australia. The reason why the SRT version is sold in Australia is because the Charger isn't available there. I lost all interest in the 300 when the SRT was discontinued after the 2014 model year. If it weren't for FCA using the LX platform developed by Mercedes Benz and using what they had on the drawing board for future models, I don't think FCA North America would be very successful. The reason why I'm critical of FCA because they really missed the boat with the 300. The 300 could have been a more refined, high luxury car using the LX platform. If Mopar lovers can get excited about fender flares and placing Hellcat engines in cars that most will probably never be able to afford, I'm sure they would get excited about a 300 that came from the factory with the 392, magnetic ride, decent tires rather than the 245s found on the Scat Pack, carbon fiber, and other luxury features. With Ford and GM getting out of the luxury sedan business, a 300 like I'm suggesting would do very well. Sales would be limited. However, with the mark up on a car like I'm suggesting sales wouldn't need to be that high to justify its own existence. My first car was a Chrysler 300 when it was a luxury performance car. All it is now is a Charger with a different look and sales that don't justify its existence.
Funny thing about this is, the charger will hood its value more and longer than the 300 will - even tho both cars are about the same age in their old platforms
Since we're talking V6's, how about the Chrysler 200S V6? I know I love mine, I just want to know how it stacks in comparison to a Charger or 300 in feel
The 300 is classy looking I never driven one so I don’t know how it handles. But the sxt charger handles well, looks sharp, and actually does fairly well in autocross events.
Great vid as always. I just bought a 2018 300 and I really like the looks and the v6 is more than adequate. I just put my beautiful 09 Ram into semi retirement at 185,000 miles. I'm the original owner. Love your vids and I have a plan to buy a Scat Pack in 2 years, it's gonna be blue with leather and a stick shift! Edit 09 Ram is 5.7 Hemi and still gives me a thrill when I punch it!
It would be nice if people started buying these cars up that way Chrysler continues to 300. Because from my understanding the sales are down then that's pretty much why they're discontinuing them. Not sure why people are not buying these like crazy. This is a car for everyone Grandma's grandpas motorheads young kids you name it. Very very sad if they discontinue these.
i'm currently looking at getting a 300s HEMI, maybe trading my R/T for one soon. our streets are just too rough for my Challenger (it has the Scat Pack stuff on it) i guess i better nab one b4 they're all gone!
Both cars are classic worthy all american big four doors. The lines of the 2015 and up (the last styling update), the 300 has that “Mafia look” or more executive style. As of this writing (December 2022), say goodbye to the 300. MY2022 was it for the 300. Such as great car ! Go buy one !!
Both cars are mechanically similar, but different body panels and is built on the same Chrysler LX platform. The LX platform also includes the Dodge Challenger, Magnum and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The LX platform was designed and engineered by DiamilerChrysler. Both cars are built on the same assembly line at the FiatChrysler plant in Brampton Ontario.
I have had a Dodge Challenger V-6 ( back when they still put the Dodge Ram on the front), 5.7 LT Hemi Charger, an now a 6.4 scat pack. Chargers with big blocks and small blocks are fun comes down to if you like the 300 luxury or if you want to give up luxury for horse power. For me it makes little sense for a daily driver to buy the small block Hemi in the 300 b/c the gas savings is nothing ultra great although you can put 89 octane in the small blocks which helps some to a small degree. Sport 300 does not do alot for me b/c of this however for a new Dodge/Fiat/ Chrysler fan this could be your ticket. Touring L 300 got a 91 grade from consumer reports and the cars as the frame etc... are almost the same. Do you want Horsepower & using more fuel or do you want luxury and less fuel ??? That is the real question you need to ask yourself I love the look of all the Chargers , 300's currently. I don't see the 300 going anywhere for the next few years b/c there is really nothing in a full size sedan with all the luxury's that it has and same with the stock big block engines for the Chargers /Challengers.
The 300 is a more elegant car the chrome trim and bright silver wheels make the car look like its for a adult were the charger looks good but with all the blacked out trim makes the car look cheaper and for a less mature person I know most people will disagree with me but the black wheels and trim make the car look like it belongs in the honda crowd instead of the house of muscle were it belongs I may be wrong but it's just my humble opinion :)
He actually sounded much clearer in the 300 than in the charger, not sure if anyone noticed that, pretty sure the chrysler is sealed a bit more to be quietwr
i test drove a 2019 300, 80 and 40 mph felt the same, so quiet we could hear my leather jacket when i turned wheel. u could hear a pin drop. open back window n its was deafening. only thing bad deal breaker was it road as ruff as my p71 cop crown vic. could feel the tar strips. was the touring model. do ant cars ride good?
The 300 in terms of style and luxury and what you get for your money, you cant compare the two, its night and day...we don't have chargers in Australia, only the 300c Hemi's, which all cops in Sydney use.
@Hybrid Libertarian yup thats why i said they looked more similar in 2007...both cars had straight bodies....until the charger got more curves when the body design changed i believe in 2011...but i mean its still basically the same vehicle
When it comes to a daily A-B car 300 is the nicer car. Its classy, feels luxurious, still has decent power. If you want a charger I wouldn't buy anything less than an RT.
@@RacerX9 Funny, Chrysler says "2021 Chrysler 300 - The Iconic Luxury Sedan" and "LUXURIOUS AND ICONIC." Depending on your definition of luxury and which model and options you add, the 300 could be considered a luxury sedan. In the base form it's just a nice car...nothing too fancy. Other people might look at you and think it's nicer, fancier and more expensive than it really is, so that could work in your favor!
It makes sense to choose based on yo own tastes. For me, I'd rather the Charger, its aggressive, and more for casual/sport driving. I hate the shifter in the 300c, it looks vulnerable, and no sports mode 😒 300c is more for a old man than a young dude, Im just sayin! I'm out on the hunt for a SRT8 300 though 😂
I own a 2014 chrysler 300s v8 fully loaded yes with moon roof and it doesn't have that dial for a shifter , its the regular shifter I got the rarest 300s in socal

I wouldn't mind having a V6 300 but couldn't do a "muscle car" Charger with a V6 so id take the 300
I have a 18’ 300S V-6 and it’s a great car. I thought the car would feel under powered but it’s a very competent car.
I have a 2020. Their nice.
@@93pr3ssure2
I agree. I think the car is an excellent value. 300hp , rear wheel drive, a lot to like.
@@chris92282 Next time you get an oil change at the dealership. Its this system cleaner they have to clean the engone back to brand new status. It boost the performance and your horsepower. I forgot the name but its well worth it.
@@93pr3ssure2
Good to know, I’m taking it in tomorrow for a oil change.
@@chris92282 its about 60 but its worth it. I get over 30 per gal. on the highway.
I’d highly recommend that you test drive a 300s. There is a noticeable difference. I daily a 2018:
Carjackers seam to prefer Chargers. If that means anything
Which is ironic because other than some bodywork, and interior trim, they're the same car
That's why Chrysler 300's are the better buy, less prone to theft, especially in Michigan
Nice video and comparison.
I agree with your assessment of both cars.
I own a 2017 300c.
I love it.
Good job👍😁
I will always go for the Charger
Same
Same
I love the outside of the 300. But the interior is outdated. I have a challenger and I was surprised how much cheaper the charger and 300 interior is. I thought the charger has the same exact interior. But alot more hard plastics!
Great video Racer X!
Thank you my friend..
The only reason why the 300 exists is to keep the Chrysler brand alive. The only Chryslers that exist besides the 300 are the Town and Country and the SRT 300 sold in Australia. The reason why the SRT version is sold in Australia is because the Charger isn't available there. I lost all interest in the 300 when the SRT was discontinued after the 2014 model year. If it weren't for FCA using the LX platform developed by Mercedes Benz and using what they had on the drawing board for future models, I don't think FCA North America would be very successful. The reason why I'm critical of FCA because they really missed the boat with the 300. The 300 could have been a more refined, high luxury car using the LX platform. If Mopar lovers can get excited about fender flares and placing Hellcat engines in cars that most will probably never be able to afford, I'm sure they would get excited about a 300 that came from the factory with the 392, magnetic ride, decent tires rather than the 245s found on the Scat Pack, carbon fiber, and other luxury features. With Ford and GM getting out of the luxury sedan business, a 300 like I'm suggesting would do very well. Sales would be limited. However, with the mark up on a car like I'm suggesting sales wouldn't need to be that high to justify its own existence. My first car was a Chrysler 300 when it was a luxury performance car. All it is now is a Charger with a different look and sales that don't justify its existence.
Funny thing about this is, the charger will hood its value more and longer than the 300 will - even tho both cars are about the same age in their old platforms
How so, actually I think you have it backwards.
In my area a 300 seems about 3K more expensive then a similar charger
If anyone is interested in having a 300 with a 392/Hellcat Khal_SRT started building them for people
Since we're talking V6's, how about the Chrysler 200S V6? I know I love mine, I just want to know how it stacks in comparison to a Charger or 300 in feel
In terms of performance the 200 is actually faster with the V6 than the 300 and Charger with the 3.6 due to the weight difference.
Great content Racer X as always
Much appreciated
The 300s looks more boss. I really hope they redesign the 300.
SAME
The 300 is classy looking I never driven one so I don’t know how it handles. But the sxt charger handles well, looks sharp, and actually does fairly well in autocross events.
Will you review a RAM TRX soon?
Great vid as always. I just bought a 2018 300 and I really like the looks and the v6 is more than adequate.
I just put my beautiful 09 Ram into semi retirement at 185,000 miles.
I'm the original owner.
Love your vids and I have a plan to buy a Scat Pack in 2 years, it's gonna be blue with leather and a stick shift!
Edit
09 Ram is 5.7 Hemi and still gives me a thrill when I punch it!
It would be nice if people started buying these cars up that way Chrysler continues to 300. Because from my understanding the sales are down then that's pretty much why they're discontinuing them. Not sure why people are not buying these like crazy. This is a car for everyone Grandma's grandpas motorheads young kids you name it. Very very sad if they discontinue these.
Both cars needs ASAP whole new model
Great review I own a 300 it's a great car.
Can you one with a fully loaded 300
Nice review man.. respect
I saw lady driving Corvette C8 with RacerX license plate lol
I hope they don’t get rid of the 300
Yes me too my friend
That's one of the reasons I traded my 2005 in for the 2019, fear of missing out of a great car ! Glad I stayed with the 300c.
Made me wanna go cruise in my 300 👀😏
Thank you for the comparo!
Softer Seats in the Chrysler 300 because Luxury Car!
i'm currently looking at getting a 300s HEMI, maybe trading my R/T for one soon. our streets are just too rough for my Challenger (it has the Scat Pack stuff on it) i guess i better nab one b4 they're all gone!
If you want new and features you better do it now. There's features only available in the C.
I love my 2014 SRT 300
Both cars are classic worthy all american big four doors. The lines of the 2015 and up (the last styling update), the 300 has that “Mafia look” or more executive style. As of this writing (December 2022), say goodbye to the 300. MY2022 was it for the 300. Such as great car ! Go buy one !!
You do know they are both made in the same plant in Brampton Ontario along with the challenger
On my 2016 300C AWD you can change the steering from normal to light or sport. Notice a big difference!
Make the 300 a convertible lol.... imagine a spacious luxury convertible 🙌🏻🙌🏻
i would buy that right now
The trim levels he mentions for the 300 are not for 2021+ 300's btw
Both cars are mechanically similar, but different body panels and is built on the same Chrysler LX platform. The LX platform also includes the Dodge Challenger, Magnum and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The LX platform was designed and engineered by DiamilerChrysler. Both cars are built on the same assembly line at the FiatChrysler plant in Brampton Ontario.
Next time when you compare 2 cars you could add more data like trunk volume, 0-60 time or wheels and tires diameter. Nice comparison anyway.
Definitely something to consider.. thanks brother
Chrysler is supposed to be the luxury brand and doesn’t have leather seats as default lol
...looking at a 21 300 S (almost loaded) RWD for a work car, already have a Scat Pack challenger 6 spd. so "RARE!!!!"
I have had a Dodge Challenger V-6 ( back when they still put the Dodge Ram on the front), 5.7 LT Hemi Charger, an now a 6.4 scat pack. Chargers with big blocks and small blocks are fun comes down to if you like the 300 luxury or if you want to give up luxury for horse power. For me it makes little sense for a daily driver to buy the small block Hemi in the 300 b/c the gas savings is nothing ultra great although you can put 89 octane in the small blocks which helps some to a small degree. Sport 300 does not do alot for me b/c of this however for a new Dodge/Fiat/ Chrysler fan this could be your ticket. Touring L 300 got a 91 grade from consumer reports and the cars as the frame etc... are almost the same.
Do you want Horsepower & using more fuel or do you want luxury and less fuel ??? That is the real question you need to ask yourself I love the look of all the Chargers , 300's currently. I don't see the 300 going anywhere for the next few years b/c there is really nothing in a full size sedan with all the luxury's that it has and same with the stock big block engines for the Chargers /Challengers.
The 300 is the bankers hot rod (that’s from the 50s ) that’s the last time they raced too. The 300 c hasn’t been built in quite some time
I love 2010+ american car's look they seem to catch up with the rest of the world lately.
Which car do you think has the best reliability
I will take the shift lever rather than the little knob for shifting. And the paddle shifters are a waste of money and material.
Hey nice hat. Love my 300s. I have the v6 and it's no drag car but it goes. Awd. Cheers. I blow by anyone in the winter.
The 300 is a more elegant car the chrome trim and bright silver wheels make the car look like its for a adult were the charger looks good but with all the blacked out trim makes the car look cheaper and for a less mature person I know most people will disagree with me but the black wheels and trim make the car look like it belongs in the honda crowd instead of the house of muscle were it belongs I may be wrong but it's just my humble opinion :)
Love the 300 design.
He actually sounded much clearer in the 300 than in the charger, not sure if anyone noticed that, pretty sure the chrysler is sealed a bit more to be quietwr
i test drove a 2019 300, 80 and 40 mph felt the same, so quiet we could hear my leather jacket when i turned wheel. u could hear a pin drop. open back window n its was deafening. only thing bad deal breaker was it road as ruff as my p71 cop crown vic. could feel the tar strips. was the touring model. do ant cars ride good?
The 300 in terms of style and luxury and what you get for your money, you cant compare the two, its night and day...we don't have chargers in Australia, only the 300c Hemi's, which all cops in Sydney use.
Very good comparison.
Thank you Richard
I beat my friends new 2020 V6 Chrysler 300 with my 2018 Chevy Cruze red light to red light tonight! 😏
They looked more similar in like 2007....pretty much the same car back in the day...
Very true..
@Hybrid Libertarian yup thats why i said they looked more similar in 2007...both cars had straight bodies....until the charger got more curves when the body design changed i believe in 2011...but i mean its still basically the same vehicle
When it comes to a daily A-B car 300 is the nicer car. Its classy, feels luxurious, still has decent power. If you want a charger I wouldn't buy anything less than an RT.
Hey Racer X, is the 300 billed as a luxury sedan?
I think it depends on who you ask lol.. the rental companies would say yes
@@RacerX9 Funny, Chrysler says "2021 Chrysler 300 - The Iconic Luxury Sedan" and "LUXURIOUS AND ICONIC." Depending on your definition of luxury and which model and options you add, the 300 could be considered a luxury sedan. In the base form it's just a nice car...nothing too fancy. Other people might look at you and think it's nicer, fancier and more expensive than it really is, so that could work in your favor!
The seats are softer because Chrysler is the luxury brand of Dodge the charger is a four-door family sports car
I love the 300 I have a 2013 300
Love my 2016 charger sxt myself
It makes sense to choose based on yo own tastes. For me, I'd rather the Charger, its aggressive, and more for casual/sport driving. I hate the shifter in the 300c, it looks vulnerable, and no sports mode 😒 300c is more for a old man than a young dude, Im just sayin! I'm out on the hunt for a SRT8 300 though 😂
On my 2019 300c , it has the sport mode with paddle shifters on the steering wheel.
@@frankbarcelona2118 Yeah but wit auto thefts around Detroit, Im not feeling that shift knob. Getaways be TOO easy.
I own a 2014 chrysler 300s v8 fully loaded yes with moon roof and it doesn't have that dial for a shifter , its the regular shifter I got the rarest 300s in socal
All 2011-2014 shifter have that other shifter lol
And if you have the hemi then you have the mechanical feeling one
