2008	4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	Roomy and comfortable see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Wagon turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD	vast space see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	Tons of room in the front seat. I am tall and I still have the seat adjusted in the middle, not all the way back, with lots of head room and leg room to spare. The passenger side is even better. see full Chrysler 300 review
2008	4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD	The back seats have just as much room as the front seats. They fit the whole family with no problems, and you can even pick up the in-laws and they will fit back there perfectly. see full Chrysler 300 review
