Chrysler<\/a> dropped the goss on the 2023 Chrysler 300<\/a> sedan, a bit of whispering that took barely half a minute to read. There is one change coming to next year’s 300: The entry-level Touring trim gains the option of the SafeyTec Plus Group. That bundle of features includes advanced brake<\/a> assist, rain-sensing windshield wipers, LaneSense Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist, ParkSense front and rear park assist, auto high-beam headlamp control, Full-speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, adaptive cruise control (ACC) with stop, an Alpine audio system with six speakers and a 276-watt amplifier, and an 80-amp alternator. The package costs $2,495 on the next model up, the Touring L, which is probably close to what Chrysler will charge on the Touring.<\/p>\n

The other new news is a special edition inbound for next year, but the automaker hasn’t divulged anything about it. Mopar Insiders says Chrysler will hold a special event at the Detroit Auto Show<\/a> next week, perhaps we’ll find out more then.<\/p>\n

For a car old enough to have transported Walter P. Chrysler to work and gets effectively zero support in a dying segment, the 300 still looks and performs well and sells adequately. Whereas the Dodge Charger<\/a> has averaged about 78,000 sales in each of the past two years in the U.S., the 300 had averaged about 17,000 sales in each of the past two years. We’d love to see Chrysler do something \u2014 anything \u2014 with it before the rumored electric successor arrives<\/a>. The brand has a huge revamp in the works, though, so we’d also understand Chrysler leaving the old girl in a corner to do her best.<\/p>\n

Prices haven’t been announced yet. We’d expect nominal increases over the current range, which starts at $35,140 for the entry-level rear-wheel-drive Touring and tops out at $46,945 for the 300S with the Hemi V8 before incentives.<\/p>\n
