  • Spring Meets the Refreshed 200 Model by Chrysler

    2015 Chrysler 200 nteriorThe award-winning 2015  Chrysler 200 meets the spring with two additional interior packs, that give clients even greater customization choices.  Interesting fact is, that the sales of the 2015 Chrysler 200 have grown tremendously since the introduction of the sedan. In March, the 200 model increased sales by the unbelievable 155 percent, compared to March 2014.

    2015 Spring meets the fresh and hot 200S and the 200C models. The first one, 200C, comes with Ambassador Blue leather and Black leather or Black cloth with Ambassador Blue leather trim. 200C meets the upcoming Spring with the premium Mocha leather interior with heated front seats and also includes Black or Linen leather interiors.

    But the 200 models don’t just come with interior changes: Chrysler 200 shows wonderful and handy addons. For example, the nine-speed automatic transmission and the option to choose between two engine types. And of course a trusty safety system is included. Actually the 200 models come with the most resilient safety system ever installed in a Chrysler vehicle.

    The Rocky Mountain Automotive Press (RMAP) and Texas Auto Writers Association are the first to give awards to the 2015 Chrysler 200 models. RMAP gave the Chrysler 200 “Car of the Year” award, while TAWA believes, that the 200 is the “Mid-size Sedan of Texas”.

    It is a brand’s tradition to bring innovative and high-technology products and the 2015 Chrysler 200 is not an exception. Since 1926 Chrysler creates beautiful designs, brings upgraded technology tweaks and overall premium feel, that is instantly recognized by customers.

    So, tell me what you think about the 200 series.

  • The 2015 Chrysler 200 named Top Safety Pick Plus

    2015-Chrysler-200_thumb2015-Chrysler-200_651

    Cars are a nice thing but there is always a risk involved with them. You may be the best and most careful driver ever but no matter how slow you may drive, the driver in the opposite lane may still hit you and cause injuries and other bad things. Clearly you need a car that is as safe as possible.

    Well, your choice has become a bit easier thanks to the efforts of the US Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). If you want a safe car then you should take a look at the 2015 Chrysler 200, which was just named “2014 Top Safety Pick Plus” by this same institute. The highest safety rating was awarded to models that come with front crash prevention.

    “The 200 aced the challenging small overlap front test with a good rating in every measurement category,” said IIHS President Adrian Lund. “Chrysler should also be commended for offering forward collision warning with autonomous braking on this mainstream midsize car. Our research shows that these systems are effective in preventing some kinds of crashes from happening altogether.”

    The tests conducted include a side impact with a large SUV or pickup truck, front moderate-offset impact, roof-crush consistent with a rollover, a rear collision capable of inducing whiplash, a new small-offset frontal impact and new crash prevention evaluation. In all tests the Chrysler 200 achieved the highest possible rating. This is not surprising though – the car comes with a comprehensive array of 60 active and passive safety and security features, including driver-warning/assist systems and state-of-the-art occupant restraints. In addition to all this about 65 per cent of the body of the car consists of hot-stamped, high-strength, advanced high-strength and boron steels for greater overall chassis strength.

    The new 2015 Chrysler 200 comes with various extras such as a nine-speed automatic transmission, full electronic shifting, an innovative all-wheel drive system, a choice of two engines, paddle shifters, an available sport mode, highway fuel economy of US 36 mpg (6.5 liters per 100 km), cruise control and ParkSense Parallel/Perpendicular Park Assist technologies. A unique feature of the 2015 Chrysler 200 is that the car comes with a segment-exclusive standard electronic brake with SafeHold that secures the vehicle if the driver opens the door and unlatches the seat belt while forward or reverse gears are still engaged. Other standard and available features include electronic stability control, electronic roll mitigation, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, ParkSense rear backup sensors, ParkView rear backup camera, blind-spot monitoring, Rear Cross Path Detection and LATCH child seat anchors.

    The new 2015 Chrysler 200 starts at USD 21,700 (excluding a USD 995 destination fee) and is available at various Chrysler dealers in the United States.

When the model is equipped with the aforementioned engine and the all-wheel-drive system, then the ratings are the following: 18 mpg city, 29 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined.

    These exceptional numbers of fuel efficiency are due to the advanced technologies included in the new Chrysler 200.

This system also includes one-speed power transfer unit (PTU).
