The Chrysler 200 is a midsize sedan that offers a quiet ride, a comfortable interior, and user‑friendly technology. While this model is no longer being made today, you can still find used models on the market. When looking at the used market, there will be a ton of features that you'll need to keep in mind, and that's where we want to help. Here is what to look for in a used Chrysler 200.
Key Takeaways:
- While this model didn't last long, it made an impact on the market, coming with some of the best features for its age, as well as coming with some new gear that hadn't been seen before.
- In the most recent generation, we recommend getting one that comes with the I4 engine. While the V6 was the strongest when it initially rolled out, it has slowly lost its title, but gas mileage will always remain king.
- This sedan almost feels like it's one of the best luxury models when equipped with features such as heated seats and dual-zone automatic climate control.
Second Generation (2015-2017)
This generation didn't last long, only hitting the market for two years. Coming in 4 trims to pick from, with LX, Limited, S, and C being offered. The 200 did some big things in its life, coming with the best V6 horsepower, and being the first car in its segment to offer a dial-based gear shift.
When looking at the engines, as mentioned, it does come with a V6 option. This one is the 3.6L V6. This engine made a massive 295 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. The other engine that you can look for is the 2.4L I4.
Of these two engines, the one that you'll want to look for is the I4, as it gets 27 MPG combined, compared to the V6's 23 MPG combined.
Technology is where this sedan really shines. Most models come with the Uconnect system, and some have the 8.4-inch touchscreen with navigation. Bluetooth, USB ports, and SiriusXM are standard on many trims, while keyless entry with push-button start and remote start are available if you want extra convenience. The 200 can also be equipped with a digital driver information display, keeping everything you need right in front of you.
Safety features are solid across the board. Every 200 comes with a rearview camera, and on higher trims or with the SafetyTec package, you get adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, and even parking assist. All of that works alongside available all-wheel drive, making this sedan not only comfortable but also confident to drive.
First Generation (2011-2014)
The first-generation Chrysler 200 came out in 2011, and much like the recent one, it didn't last long. Inside, it feels simple but well thought out, with supportive seats and clean controls that are easy to use every day. Many models came with soft-touch interior materials, and on higher trims, you could find leather seating, heated front seats, and a power driver's seat, all of which made long drives feel a lot more relaxed than you'd expect from a midsize sedan in this price range.
Technology was another area where the 200 quietly delivered. Most models came equipped with Chrysler's Uconnect system, giving you Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calling and music streaming. Some trims added a touchscreen display, steering-wheel audio controls, and available remote start, which made the car feel more modern and convenient for daily use. Little touches like automatic climate control and keyless entry also helped make the cabin feel more upscale than basic transportation.
