Chrysler Town & Country

Aside

It’s the minivan that Saad Chehab the CEO of Chrysler called the “realization of the American Dream.”  It’s been a long time favorite of families across the nation and is in fact America’s most beloved mini-van based on sales.  The Chrysler Town & Country has always been the mini van of choice for the family who wants to safe and reliable car at a decent price without sacrificing quality visual design.

Safety is the name of the game with the design of the Town and County.  Chrysler made it quite clear that they had the well being of the driver and every passenger in mind.  The high intensity discharge headlights provide much more output than conventional headlights, giving you a good peace of mind no matter what time of the day you’re out on the roads of Staten Island.  Also, the headlights come equipped with a system known as the Smartbeam Intelligent Headlamp System which uses its sensors for the light coming from oncoming traffic.  The light is then adjusted automatically, meaning that you no longer have to constantly switch the brights on and off.  Even the side mirrors come with an auto-dimming feature that makes it so you can safely avoid glare from any cars in your rear view.

The Town & Country is looking to give even further peace of mind to the driver with all kinds of precautions.  For those in the front seat, there is standard advanced multistage front airbags for both driver and front seat passengers.  There’s even a driver’s side knee blocker airbag.  There is also the standard supplemental side curtain airbag that works with roll sensing technology so the airbags adjust accordingly to the severity of impact.  Another feature to protect the driver is front seat active head restraints which automatically move forward and upward as to decrease the space between headrest and the driver’s head.   This will reduce any chance of injury.  For families with children, the Town & Country also comes with child seat anchors to allow for easily fastening and unfastening of a child’s safety seat.  There is enough to worry about on the road but the Town & Country definitely has you and your family’s protection in mind.

This focus on the safety continues with the tires, available in both 16 inch and 17 inch.  Not only does the Town & Country have a system in place to monitor the pressure in your tires, keeping you aware of any problems that may occur, but it also offers lower rolling resistance.  What that means is that it takes less force to push a tire on the road.  That not only gives the Town & County better traction for every season, better stopping, and smoother cornering, but it also improves the overall fuel efficiency.  With the massive 20.0 gallon tank, that’ll help out plenty during all high gas periods.

Inside the Town & County, comfort is the name of the game.  Using only the finest materials, it’s a gorgeous interior design that is built to ensure that your family or whoever is tagging along has the best ride possible.  The vehicle comes as a quiet ride, focused on making sure the interior is as silent as possible through the addition of sound absorbers and silences spread through the mini van.  That only adds to the comfort level as you sit in the leather trimmed seats and steering wheel, giving a pleasant experience and a refined look.[formidable id=6]

Chrysler 300 Sedan

Aside

Chrysler 300 features a classic design that’s been redefined in the way only a car imported from Detroit could have. The rear spoiler gives homage to the tail-finned look of the 1950s. A raked back windshield combines with a forward leaning fascia help to make the 300 aerodynamic and give off an aggressive stance to the exterior design. On top of all that, the 300 also makes sure to make use of all the traditional and iconic designs of Chrysler in the one of a kind grille.

The Chrysler 300 is a beauty to watch drive by. Built with confidence and purpose, this Sedan has a jeweled C-shape LEDs that give not only a distinctive look, but was something that only European luxury cars had until now. Also available to aid the distinctive look of the 300 is options such as Bi-Xenon HID head lamps that are capable of generating more than three times the normal output of halogen headlamps. The headlights are all part of a bigger package, the Adaptive Forward Lighting system. This system turns the lights in the direction that the driver is steering which enhances the visibility of a night time ride. It even takes the speed and angle into its calculations to make sure that you headlight is always in the proper direction to give the best lightning for the road ahead.

The inside of a Chrysler 300 shows that quality runs deep. Refinement is the word on the mind when gazing at the interior. A wealth of features make sure to catch the eye and show that the 300 is designed for comfort without sacrificing any features. That can be seen in the seating material and, even more so, in a feature like the instrument panel. This classic American design comes with LED back light gauges that add an atmospheric sapphire-blue glow to the read-outs. Truly eye popping and something that can only be seen with the class of the 300.

Beauty of design is also apparent in the things that eyes can’t see. The heart of the Chrysler 300 comes in two forms, the V6 and V8. Both of these engines offer drivers plenty of power, complete control, and unparalleled efficiency. The 3.6 Pentastar V6 produces 292 horsepower and has a fuel efficiency of 19 gallons in the city and 31 on the highway. For the other type, the 5.7L Hemi V8 provides 363 horsepower and 16 gallons in the city and 25 on the highway. That being said, the 300 uses these engines to provide the ability to go from 0 to 60 in no time. Both engines are a reflection of quality without compromise.

The final aspect of the 300’s design comes in the safety features. An available part of the 300 is the ParkSense Rear Park Assist System. This offers both front and rear parking assistant with sensors that alert the driver if they detect any presences up to 3.9 feet away from the front and 6.5 feet away from the back. To complement this, the 300 also has advanced multistage front airbags along with supplemental front-seat thorax side airbags. Supplement side curtain airbags are also available to protect any passengers.

Chrysler 200 Sedan & Convertible

Aside

The 2012 Chrysler Sedan 200 and the Chrysler 200 Convertible come with an elegant design that gives a very unique and distinct style to set it apart from the pack.  On the outside, it’s easy to see the detail that went into the sedan’s design with the signature grille and the dual bright exhaust tips.  It also includes fantastic features such as as chrome mirrors, automatic headlamps, and a jeweled LED tail-lamps.  It’s sure to please any driver looking to make an impression on the road, from the streets of Manhattan to a trip to the Jersey Shore, at a great price.

With the Chrysler 200 Convertible, you’ll find two different tops in the form of the the new painted steel retractable hardtop or the classic power cloth soft top.  It comes with a hard tonneau cover to help protect your convertible top and even hides the top once it’s been lowered.  It’s a completely seamless look once the top goes down.
The same exceptional craftsman ship on display on the outside of the car continues for the interior.  The Chrysler 200 has a completely new inside with luxury fabrics and has soft ambient lighting.  It also has such amazing comforts like leather trimmed seats and a leather wrapped steering wheel that comes complete with audio control to help keep you focused on the drive.  There’s also the LED ambient lighting to help with any late night cruises.  If this didn’t make it clear that the sedan was built with the driver’s comfort in mind, then the focus on lowering the car’s sound with better insulating and upgrades to give drivers and their passengers a smooth and quiet ride on the way to Great Adventure or Atlantic City for the weekend.

Under the hood, both the 200 Sedan and 200 Convertible have a 2.4 liter engine powering it along to 173 horsepower at 6000 RPM.  Both feature a robust 16.9 gallon fuel tank and the 200 Sedan can get up to 21 miles per gallon while in the city and 30 mpg once it’s taken out onto the highway.  When driving the 200 Convertible, that changes to 18 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.  This rates it as best in its class which isn’t too bad considering that it’s also the lowest entry price for it’s class as well.
The 200 Sedan and Convertible both come with an improved suspension system that gives an overall smooth and responsive ride to the driver.  This is all thanks to the MacPhearson strut front suspension and electronic stability control that is an all speed traction control standard on every model.  The electronic stability control has sensors that monitor the input of the steering and the vehicles motions.  It can tell when there’s a change in your intended path and the vehicles actual movement.  It then applies selective braking along with throttle control and guides the vehicle back onto the intended path

Safety will never be a concern while driving in the 200 Sedan and Convertible.  It was awarded the 2011 IIHS Top Safety Pick.  Also included are front seat multistage airbags and supplemental side airbags and side curtain airbags.  Along with All-Speed Traction control that engages whenever a wheel is beginning to slip and Four Wheel Anti-lock Brakes, it’s not too hard to see why it was given such an honor.
