los angeles 2014 chrysler 300 no longer has an srt version

But the Bentley grille is standard [UPDATE – 2 p.m. Pacific, 11/19/2014: Live photos, new info now available – CA].

Electric power steering and an 8-speed automatic are the big changes for 2015. We’ll be driving the new 300 next month.

Though the SRT is dead, there are four trims from which to choose: Limited, S, C and C Platinum. The Limited and S models (starting at $32,390 and $35,890 respectively) receive power from the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, while those who opt for the 300C and 300C Platinum can tell those Dodge boys that their ride has a 5.7-liter HEMI.

Whatever power lies under the hood, the aforementioned 8-speed delivers the results to the back or, with optional AWD, all four corners.

That navy blue/cream interior is sharp. Budget Bentley for sure.

Love how Chrysler calls the 300/200 base/near base trim "Limited"

ToolGuy Why would they change the grille?
Oberkanone Nissan proved it can skillfully put new frosting on an old cake with Frontier and Z. Yet, Nissan dealers are so broken they are not good at selling the Frontier. Z production is so minimal I've yet to see one. Could Nissan boost sales? Sure. I've heard Nissan plans to regain share at the low end of the market. Kicks, Versa and lower priced trims of their mainstream SUV's. I just don't see dealerships being motivated to support this effort. Nissan is just about as exciting and compelling as a CVT.
ToolGuy Anyone who knows, is this the (preliminary) work of the Ford Skunk Works?
Kwik_Shift_Pro4X I will drive my Frontier into the ground, but for a daily, I'd go with a perfectly fine Versa SR or Mazda3.
Zerofoo The green arguments for EVs here are interesting...lithium, cobalt and nickel mines are some of the most polluting things on this planet - even more so when they are operated in 3rd world countries.
