It’s been teased for a while and even been spotted while out for test-drives, but it is finally here.  The long awaited, and much anticipated, 2015 Chrysler 200 is making it debut.

Chrysler made the announcement at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.  And this is one new model that many auto critics have been wanting for a long time.  While the 200 had a following with fans, it has been in need of a new update to get people really talking about it again.

The 200 name is about the only thing this new model of the 200 has in common with its predecessors.  Chrysler opted to do a rebuild of the vehicle rather than just update a few features.  From the inside and out, the 2015 Chrysler 200 is a whole new beast than the previous years.

All of the latest and greatest features of Chrysler are included in the new 200 such as nine-speed transmission and even an option all-wheel drive.  The popular and award-winning Uconnect system is also included with a 8.4-inch touchscreen.

For the engine, the 200 comes with two options.  One is the 2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir II four-cylinder engine with 184-horsepower.  The other is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine with 295-horsepower.

The 2015 Chrysler 200 is set to be available in late spring and the base price starts at $22,695.  For more information on how to get one when it goes on sale, contact us at Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge.  Be sure to like us on Facebook as well as follow us on Twitter to see our monthly offers on parts and new and pre-owned vehicles.

2015 Chrysler 200 Spy Photos

Cue the dramatic music because the auto spies have discovered an uncovered 2015 Chrysler 200.

As much as I want to believe we have spies working all hours of the day to uncover the secrets at Chrysler, these shots come courtesy of Autonews.com.  The photos they obtained appear to be from a photo shoot for a marketing campaign for the update to the Chrysler 200.

The news of the update has been spread around already but this is the first real look at one.  All that’s been known up to this point is that the 200 would be borrowing from other Chrysler brethren such as the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee’s CUSW platform as well as the new nine-speed transmission.

The 2015 Chrysler 200 will not be skimping out on any features.  The latest technologies that Chrysler has come up with in such as gas-saving will be implemented on the 200.  Chrysler is pushing the 200 to be a major competitor in the market and is hoping that this update will make it stand out.  Keep your eyes peeled for more information as it becomes available on the update to the Chrysler 200.

Chrysler at SEMA 2013

Chrysler 300S Mopar-Modified SEMA Show Vehicle

When Chrysler shows up to SEMA, it brings with it their talent and skill at impressing the crowd. At this year’s show, they really turned up the heat providing something for fans of every brand to drool over for the next few months.

Through the brilliant engineers at Mopar, the parts and service arm of Chrysler, they have brought new forms to their most popular vehicles. The most notable of which is garnering the most praise is Chrysler bringing back the ‘Scat Performance” pack for the Dodge Challenger.

Along with this new performance pack is the Shaker hood for the Challenger as well. The reason for that name? The air intake shakes with the movement of the engine.

The Scat performance package will be available for the Charger, Dart, and Challenger.

Plenty of other spruced up vehicles are being offered, from SRT to Jeep, and we’re covering all of them on the main blog on Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge, so be sure to check it out for more future coverage.
