Chrysler’s revamped 300 Limited, 300S, and 300C sedans span a wide range of looks, features, and prices, putting them in competition with a wide swath of the market.
The design-forward look of the 300 stands out from the crowd, but there are some worthy alternatives for those eying a large family sedan.
The Buick LaCrosse offers slightly better gas mileage in some forms, but is also more staid in style and comfort-oriented in performance than the 300.
Nissan’s Maxima has an upscale and sporty look, but lacks the behind-the-wheel entertainment factor, and its in-cabin technology is behind the competition.
Hyundai’s Genesis offers a path to even greater luxury than the 300C Platinum, but in a more generic looking (and feeling) package.
Ford’s Taurus is available in sporty SHO trim, but its boxy exterior and slightly cramped interior may not be for everyone.

Quick Specs | |||||
The 2015 Chrysler 300 adds more style, features, and efficiency to an already confident, capable large family sedan. |
The Buick LaCrosse is both supremely comfortable and excellent on gas, but we'd point you to the Premium versions if you're seriously considering one. |
The 2015 Dodge Charger looks strikingly different, ditching the retro for sleek modernity, but its V-6 and V-8 engines and rear-wheel-drive chassis make it a family sedan with a muscle-car heartbeat. |
|
The 2015 Hyundai Genesis is no longer just a great luxury-car value; it's a legitimate alternative to the heavyweights. |
The 2014 Nissan Maxima isn't the enthusiast car it claims to be, but it is a more luxurious, more stylish option than many of its competitors. |
