New for 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8 is an Adaptive Damping Suspension (ADS) system that is tuned specifically for the Chrysler 300 SRT8 to offer a submissive and comfortable ride. The ADS system also uses a wide range of on-road and driver inputs – such as vehicle speed, steering angle, steering speed, brake torque, throttle position and lateral and vertical accelerations – to automatically tune the suspension for specific situation when necessary.
In addition, drivers can physically choose between “Auto” and “Sport” settings that quickly change the shock damping and harshness characteristics from everyday commuting to more forceful driving situations.
The performance SRT-tuned, fully-hydraulic steering system also has been enhanced with a new, heavy-duty pump and revised gearing to give drivers more straight feel and on-center response.
New seven-spoke, 20-inch lightweight copied aluminum wheels and available three- or four-season tires provide great looks with fun-to-drive performance and handling.
