It's also relatively quiet, which is one of those other requirements for a luxury car. There's essentially no engine noise, except under hard acceleration. The only noise you hear on Interstate highways is tire noise. It's a shame Chrysler could not have worked with the tire manufactures to come up with a tread pattern that would ensure a quieter ride. This engine is hooked to a four-speed automatic gearbox that drives the front wheels.
Instrumentation is fairly standard with a tachometer, speedometer, fuel and water gauges.
The sound system is excellent, as is the digital HVAC system, which kept us warm on some cold spring mornings and cool in the warmer afternoons. There is a tasteful amount of wood trim to create the proper luxury touch. There were also a ton of accessories, as with most of the vehicles we are asked to drive. The most useful to us was the overhead console with a compass and exterior temperature read-out. Front passengers sat is leather-upholstered bucket seats, while in the rear there was a bench wide enough for three adults.
