Drivers often prioritize value and reliability over massive towing capacity. Whether you commute, handle daily errands, or just need a dependable sedan, the Chrysler 2.4L MultiAir® Tigershark 4-cylinder engine fits the bill.
Exclusive to the 2015-2017 Chrysler 200, this engine maximizes fuel economy without sacrificing highway power.
The 2.4L Tigershark goes beyond basic 4-cylinder design. It uses electro-hydraulic variable valve actuation, known as MultiAir, to manage air intake at all speeds.
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| Horsepower | 184 hp @ 6,250 rpm |
| Torque | 173 lb-ft @ 4,600 rpm |
| Transmission | 9-Speed Automatic (Class-Exclusive) |
| Fuel Economy | Up to 36 MPG Highway / 23 MPG City |
| Range | Up to 560+ miles per tank (Highway) |

You will see the MultiAir badge on the engine, but what does it do for your drive?
The Tech: Traditional engines rely on a fixed mechanical camshaft for intake valves. This technology uses an electro-hydraulic system to control airflow with exact precision.
The Result: The engine adjusts its breathing instantly. It leans out for maximum MPG while cruising on I-69, then opens up for immediate torque when you pass a truck on State Road 37.
Customers often ask whether to choose the 4-cylinder or the V6. This breakdown helps you decide which powertrain fits your needs.
