2012 Chrysler 200 Super S
Besides the 2012 Dodge Charger Redline, Mopar also unveiled the 2012 Chrysler 200 Super S and promised that it will bring it next week at the Detroit Auto Show. As you can see from the photos, the new Chrysler 200 Super S comes with a new front lip spoiler, satin chrome fog light trim, satin chrome grille surround and mesh in the upper and lower grilles. Moreover, the upper grille is gloss black with a recessed Chrysler wing badge.
The rear of the car features a new trunk lid spoiler, satin chrome light bar and a matte black lower diffuser with attached exhaust openings. The design is completed by the new side sills, satin chrome belt molding, black chrome "200" badges and gray or hyper black 18-inch "S" alloy wheels. Mopar also added a oil-over suspension, which also lowers the center of gravity for the vehicle, a cold-air intake and a new cat-back exhaust. Still, the engine of the car remains the same, which means we will find the 2.4-liter petrol engine delivering 173 horsepower (129 kW) and 166 lb.-ft. (225 Nm) of torque, mated to a four-speed or six-speed automatic transmission.
This engine is capable to deliver an EPA estimated fuel economy rating of 21 miles per gallon (mpg) city and 30 mpg highway mated to the four-speed automatic transmission and 20 mpg city and 31 mpg highway when mated to the six-speed automatic transmission. If you want more, the vehicle can be fitted with the more powerful 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine delivering 283 hp and 260 lb.-ft. (353 Nm) of torque. Mated to the 62TE six-speed automatic transmission, this engine has an EPA estimated fuel economy rating of 19 mpg city and 29 mpg highway.
