AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (July 10, 2025) – The next chapter of the seven-part Chrysler Century of Innovation social media video series is now live. In the new episode, titled “The Chrysler 300 Retrospective,” Stellantis Chief Design Officer Ralph Gilles reflects on the evolution of the Chrysler 300, including its innovative 1950s roots as the original “banker’s hot rod” and the iconic 2005 Chrysler 300C that he and his team designed, as well as the cultural impact of this legendary sedan.

“The Chrysler 300 Retrospective” is the fifth video in the Century of Innovation series and will be featured on the Chrysler brand’s (Instagram) and Stellantis North America (Facebook/Instagram/X/LinkedIn) social media channels. Full-length versions of all videos can be viewed on Chrysler brand and Stellantis North America YouTube channels.
