2006 Chrysler 300 Fuel Economy: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr Sedan 340-horsepower 5.7L V8
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
From a social conscious view the 19 MPG AVG is poor, especially with gas costing $4 a gal. But face it, considering the performance you get... I can live with the guilt and high cost of driving.

Expected fuel economy to be closer to 17 mpg in city driving.
