How it scores for you10 scores
Old-school full-size comfort with available V8 muscle at bargain prices, though thirsty running costs and a decade-old platform temper the appeal.
Reliability68

Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years; 2 of its 13 recalls were serious. About 5% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions.

Safety96

4-star overall NHTSA crash rating (frontal 4, side 5, rollover 4).

Running costs44

About $2,800 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 44% of cars we track.

Cargo & utility80

16.3 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 80% of other sedans we track.

Passenger space65

Full-size cabin with generous rear legroom; high beltline makes it feel snugger than the numbers

Driving fun55

RWD balance and V8s up to the 485-hp 300C make it effortless and characterful, though big and soft rather than agile

Tech42

Uconnect 8.4 aged gracefully, but driver aids and cabin tech betray a 2011-era platform

Comfort65

Big, soft, quiet American cruiser with wide seats and a compliant ride

Value retention55

Typical resale value for a sedan.

Capability39

Rated to tow 1,000 lb; all- or four-wheel drive available.
