• Tech: Mounted in a squircle-shaped part of the dashboard, the 8.4-inch touchscreen is easy to use and navigate, and the 300C also comes with SiriusXM satellite radio and Guardian connected services.

If you're buying used today, the 2018 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for 2024 inventory to mature.
