The Chrysler 300 is one of the most enduring nameplates in the automobile industry.

The current-generation Chrysler 300 has been around since the 2011 model year.

The Chrysler 300 comes standard with a 292-horsepower version of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and is available with a 363-horsepower Hemi V8.

Our sport-tuned 300S came with a 300-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6.

We were impressed by our 300S test car's plentiful power, strong infotainment system, and eye-catching looks. We were not as impressed by the less-than-inspiring driving experience and its cramped cabin.

The base 2019 Chrysler 300 Touring starts at $29,220, while our mid-grade 2019 Chrysler 300S with all-wheel drive had an as-tested price of $50,265.

Chrysler is one of the iconic brands of American business. Through thick and thin, the automaker, based in Auburn Hills, Michigan, has endured.

Following a 2014 merger with Italy's Fiat S.p.A., Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is as strong as ever. However, its Chrysler brand has withered in recent years.

For the 2019 model year, it boasts a lineup of just two models: the 300 sedan, and the Pacifica minivan.

The 300 is one of Chrysler's most enduring nameplates, dating back to the mid-1950s. The "300" branding had been dormant since the 1970s but was resurrected in 1998.

In 2003, Chrysler introduced the incarnation of the 300 sedan we are familiar with today. The retro-chic full-size luxury sedan remained in production until 2010, when it was replaced with a second-generation variant for the 2011 model year.

Apart from a face-lift in 2015, the second-generation 300 soldiers on for the 2019 model year.

Business Insider recently had the chance to spend a week with a 2019 Chrysler 300S with all-wheel drive, clad in an attractive "Ocean Blue Metallic" paint job.

The base 2019 Chrysler 300 Touring starts at $29,220. The mid-grade Touring L trim opens at $32,865, while the sporty S trim has a $36,395 entry price. The more premium Limited and top-spec C trims boast $38,245 and $41,695 price tags. All-wheel drive is a $2,500 option on select trim levels.

Options included, our sport-focused 2019 Chrysler 300S AWD came to an as-tested price of $50,265.
