Pros: Available all-wheel drive; broad range of trim options and available features; competitive pricing; improved fuel economy
Cons: Interior and trunk room are fairly stingy for the class, particularly in the back seat; 4-cylinder engine not as refined as some rivals
CG Says: Chrysler redesigns its midsize sedan for 2015, giving it dramatic new styling, new features, and a standard 9-speed automatic transmission. The 2015 Chrysler 200 rides an enlarged version of the basic platform used by the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee. The base engine is a 184-horsepower 2.4-liter 4-cylinder and the step-up powertrain is a gutsy 295-hp 3.6-liter V6. A 4-door sedan is now the lone body style; the 2-door convertible has been discontinued. The all-new 200 is a vast improvement over its also-ran predecessor, counting rakish looks, a nicely finished interior, up-to-the-minute infotainment features, and broad model lineup among its strengths.
