2023 Chrysler 300 fuel economy (EPA)

The EPA rates the 2023 Chrysler 300 at 18–23 MPG combined; the 3.6L 6-cylinder (RWD) is the most efficient and the 6.4L 8-cylinder (RWD) the thirstiest. Every EPA test configuration is below, from the government's fuel-economy database.

City, highway and combined figures are in MPG (MPGe on electricity).

Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.

2023 Chrysler 300 recalls & safety

What the U.S. government's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has on file for the 2023 Chrysler 300: 1 recall campaign, 6 owner complaints and crash-test ratings. Fetched November 8, 2026.

NHTSA 5-Star Safety Ratings

Stars compare vehicles of similar weight; rollover shows the tested chance of a rollover in a single-vehicle crash.

Newest first. A campaign covers certain vehicles of this model year, not necessarily every one. To see which apply to a specific vehicle, and whether the fix has been done, enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer; repairs are free of charge.

Parking brakeFebruary 15, 2024 · Campaign 24V112000

Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2023 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Dodge Challenger vehicles. The parking brake may be improperly adjusted, which can result in a vehicle roll away. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."

Risk: A vehicle roll away increases the risk of a crash or injury.

Fix: Dealers will properly adjust the parking brake, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 29, 2024. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is 01B.

2023 Chrysler 300 owner's manuals & publications

The manufacturer's owner's manual, quick guides, radio manuals, supplements and warranty booklets for the 2023 model year.

Read for lake-effect country

Reading the 2023 300 data for Great Lakes roads

From the Snowbelt east of Cleveland to the ridges of West Virginia and east Tennessee, this part of the country throws salt, snow and grade at every vehicle. Here is how the 2023 Chrysler 300 specifications line up against all three.

Wheels, tires and freeze-thaw roads

The smallest 2023 factory size is P215/65R17, the largest 245/45R20. Each thaw in Michigan and Ohio opens new potholes, and a tall sidewall survives them best: the 17-inch fitment flexes over a sharp edge where a low-profile tire can pinch or bend its wheel. After a hard hit, look for a sidewall bubble.

Rust-through coverage against road salt

The spec comparison lists corrosion perforation coverage of 60 months / unlimited miles. That covers body sheet metal that rusts through; it is not a promise about the brake lines, fuel lines, exhaust or frame hardware that take the worst of Michigan and Ohio salt. Use an underbody wash during mild spells, and rinse the underside thoroughly once the salt trucks stop.

The oil grade on a January morning

Oil capacity is 6 qt (3.6L) and 7 qt (5.7L), and the manual lists SAE 5W-20 or 5W-30 (3.6L) and SAE 0W-20 (5.7L). Where more than one engine appears in the lineup, the engine code on the window sticker settles which grade applies. The wrong one in an Ohio winter gives up a little protection on every cold start, and over years of driveway starts that adds up.

Battery checks before the cold

The spec sheet lists 730 cold-cranking amps. A 300 left at a lake cottage or in a pole barn for weeks slowly drains its battery, and a cold snap then finds it with nothing to spare. A plug-in maintainer for stored vehicles is cheap insurance in the Great Lakes states.

Traction for snowbelt hills and hollows

This model year offers rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive, and 2 of the 6 factory configurations have all-wheel drive. In Ohio, the payoff comes in the first hour of a storm, before plows reach side streets, and on boat ramps slick with algae where a two-wheel-drive tow vehicle can spin. Keep the system's limits in mind on ice: driven wheels add grip for going, not for stopping or turning.

Trailer duty in the schedule

The schedule lists transfer case fluid and axle fluid service for frequent trailer towing, starting at 50,000 miles. Whether it is a fishing boat headed for the Ohio River or a pop-up camper bound for the Smokies, the extra heat of towing ages these fluids faster, most of all on long July climbs.

Filters for dust and pollen

The cabin air filter first comes up at 20,000 miles. Spring pollen in the Ohio and Tennessee valleys is heavy, and a clogged cabin filter also slows the defroster in winter because it chokes the blower's airflow. It is a five-minute job on most vehicles.

Fuel grade and winter reserve

Fuel requirement: 87 octane (89 recommended). In winter, keeping the tank above half is a sensible habit across the Great Lakes states, because lake-effect pileups and mountain snow on I-64 or I-77 can leave traffic stopped for hours, and fuel is your heat.

Specifications are the manufacturer's; the weather and road context is ours. When a note here and the 2023 owner's manual disagree, follow the manual.

When is the first scheduled maintenance on the 2023 Chrysler 300?
