Chrysler Reveals Bolder-Looking 200S And 300S ‘Alloy Editions’

The new, 2016 Chrysler 200S and 300S Alloy Editions have just been revealed, bringing more style to the range.

Chrysler wanted to emphasize on the use of different materials and color combinations inspired outside of the automotive industry. Both new models now offer a unique Dark Bronze finish.

More specifically, the new Chrysler 200S Alloy Edition is offered with select exterior trim painted in the company’s Dark Bronze, like the front upper and lower grille surrounds paired with a set of matching-painted 19-inch wheels. The Dark Bronze theme continues on the rear “200S” badge with bits like the Chrysler wing badge and the dual exhaust tips finished in Titanium.

The cabin can be upholstered in either a combo of black cloth with leather or black full-leather. Each of them feature a unique Caramel accent stitching on the seats, center arm rest and door panels. A black and caramel “S” logo on the front seats and the piano black trim combined with Titanium details on the door panels, center console, outboard air vents and the Chrysler logo on the steering wheel complete the more premium image of the interior.

The Chrysler 200S Alloy Edition also wears a sport-tuned suspension while customer can opt for the factory-installed Mopar exterior package that includes a more aggressive front chin spoiler, fatter side sills with rear side sill extensions and rear valance. The color palette includes five exterior body colors: Gloss Black Clear Coat, Black Forest Green Pearl Coat, Redline Tri-coat Pearl, Granite Crystal Metallic Clear Coat and Bright White Clear Coat.

The new Chrysler 300S Alloy Edition now features a front grille finished in Dark Bronze with a matching surround for the lower part of the front fender. A set of Dark Bronze 20-inch alloy wheels (19-inches for the AWD version) and details finished in Titanium and Dark Bronze complete the exterior differences from lesser models.

The cabin is dressed in an exclusive Black Nappa leather trim with Caramel stitching, including the front heated seats, rear seats, the instrument cluster bezel, the steering wheel and armrests. The Piano Black trim combined with the titanium details is also present while a new instrument panel clock with a dark-colored analog face and Piano Black surround is there to offer a more upmarket and special feel on the interior.

Chrysler will offer a new performance-tuned suspension with increased spring rates, performance-tuned steering and bushings, larger sway bars (when combined with a V8 engine) and a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 Three-season tyres to those seeking a more rewarding driving experience.

Both cars will also be available with an optional AWD system to customers wanting more traction, with the AWD 200S Alloy Edition to be offered only with the 295hp 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 petrol engine, the same unit that the AWD 300S Alloy Edition uses.

The two new models will debut at the 2016 Chicago Auto Show, with the Alloy Edition package priced (MSRP) at $995 and $495 for the 200S and 300S respectively.
