The 2014 Chrysler 200 will be the first vehicle to be equipped with a nine-speed automatic transmission, according to Chrysler Group President Sergio Marchionne. Fuel consumption is expected to hover around the 6.2L/100 km, or 38 mpg range.

According to Wall Street Journal sources, Chrysler is said to have spent nearly 2 billion dollars to renew the 200; engine options will remain identical to the current version, meaning a 2.4 liter 4 cylinder and V6.
