Chrysler UK Ltd Managing Director, Federico Goretti, said: �The new 2010 300C range will assist us in gaining a competitive advantage in a fiercely contested segment of the market.
� With an entry level price of under �24,000, Chrysler is also attracting customers from the D-segment who are looking for a car that stands out from the crowd and comes highly equipped. Customers can now get all the features and benefits of a 300C for less than a mid-range D-segment car.
�The Chrysler 300C remains a great looking, well equipped car and now offers an even more desirable package of power, performance and style combined with attractive and extremely competitive pricing.�
