2015 Chrysler 200 First Drive Video Review

Here is what you need to know about the 2015 Chrysler 200: it is nothing like the previous model. The 200 rides on a totally new Alfa Romeo based platform that is very advanced. The first thing you notice is how quiet the car is. The V-6 engine is smooth, quiet, and powerful. The 2015 Chrysler 200 marks a turning point with a solid new platform, slick styling, a splendid interior, and top shelf technology.

A lot of time and effort went into designing a very slick exterior and the resulting 0.27 drag coefficient is the lowest in the category. These aerodynamics help the fuel economy as does under-belly aerodynamics and active shutters. The 2 powertrains include a 2.4 liter 4-cylinder Tigershark engine that makes 184 horsepower and a larger 3.6 liter V-6 Pentastar engine that makes 295 horsepower.

On the inside the first thing you notice is the large Uconnect 8.4-inch touch-screen unit in the center stack. The rotary knob controls the transmission. Gone are the large shifters replaced by smaller more technologically advanced systems.
