The 2005 Chrysler 300C SRT-8 (Gen. 1) is a high performance variation of the Chrysler 300C.

The 300C SRT-8 came onto the automobile market in 2004. The SRT-8 received a small rear spoiler integrated onto its body in 2007. The second generation 300C SRT-8 with a 6.4L HEMI V8 went into production in 2011.

Games[]

Need for Speed: Carbon[]

The 300C HEMI SRT8 appears in Need for Speed: Carbon as a tier 1 muscle class car. It is unlocked from the beginning of the game.

Its handling suffers from severe understeer through corners due to its large size and mass, but this makes it best used in pursuits to take advantage of its durability. Race events without many sharp corners are best suited to the 300C, since it has a moderate top speed and quick acceleration.

Stock

The stock 300C HEMI SRT8 is unlocked for purchase in the Career mode from the beginning of any career, and it can be purchased from any Car Lot for 35,000 cash.

Need for Speed: Undercover[]

Stub - This article section needs expanding with relevant information.

The 300C SRT-8 appears in the PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, and Wii releases of Need for Speed: Undercover. In the PlayStation 2 and Wii releases, it has a price tag of $46,000.

In the PlayStation Portable release, Chau Wu's henchmen drive black 300C's.

Development - Some content may have altered during development.

It can also be found in the game files of the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 releases of Need for Speed: Undercover.

The model is in an incomplete state and only some aftermarket parts can be applied, but if included in the released game, it could have been purchased with a price tag of $35,000.

Need for Speed: World[]

The 300C SRT-8 was released in Need for Speed: World on August 16, 2012 with a tier 2 rating. Since August 22, 2012, it has a C class rating.

In terms of performance, the Red Juggernaut is a decent car. It has a good acceleration speed. Nitrous boost is above average but not as powerful as seen on some SpeedBoost exclusive B class cars. It is prone to oversteer at low-speed cornering and oddly has heavy steering whilst at high speeds. Top speed is 176 mph (283 km/h).

It might be less effective in multiplayer races due to its handling characteristics, but performs well in pursuit events because of its mass.

The addition of pursuit skill mods make the juggernauts more suitable for Pursuit Outrun and Team Escape than racing, since they are easily outmatched by B class cars with better handling such as the Ford Escort RS Cosworth. They both have an increased top speed of 185 mph (298 km/h).
