CHRYSLER 300 VS. NISSAN

ALTIMA VEHICLE COMPARISON

Chrysler 300 Nissan Altima

Interior space is generous, and despite the de-contenting of the Core, power-adjustable sports seats remain up front. They’re wide, so not exactly sport, but even with fabric trim they’re still comfy.

Driver’s of taller stature may not notice, but for the vertically challenged it's hard to get the lumbar support right. For longer legs there’s a shortage of under-thigh support too.

But rear seat passengers enjoy the width of this car. There’s shoulder space for three broad blokes, and the centre perch isn’t unpleasant (but being rear-wheel-drive, there’s an lumpy transmission tunnel to clear).

Well there's powered front seats, an electrically-adjustable steering column, heated mirrors with electric folding, proximity key with push-button start, sports pedals, automatic bi-Xenon lights and rain-sensing wipers, self-dimming rear view mirrors, alarm and dual zone climate control.

Add to that list with a huge 8.4 inch touch screen, a six-speaker Alpine audio system featuring MP3, CD, AM/FM and auxiliary inputs, plus Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity.

It also houses access to SRT telemetry, which gives vital vehicle system temperatures and pressures, as well as recording acceleration and braking speeds, trap speeds, steering input and G-forces.

The Core also keeps 20x9.0 inch alloy wheels - with a unique design -and the SRT bodykit.

Without making too much of a point of it: 6.4 litres! By modern standards - by any standard - that is a huge engine, particularly as more and more manufacturers are hustling to downsize.

The outputs are similarly supersized. Powers tops out at 347kW at 6100rpm while torque peaks at 631Nm at 4150rpm. Its ability to put that power to the ground is surprising, a combination of clever electronic intervention and a well sorted rear-end helps here.

Keeping in mind the $56,000 entry ticket, the SRT8 Core is a genuine bang-for-your-buck bargain. Nothing else for the money comes close to matching its monstrous outputs.
