Default Engine sizes?

How many options are there for engine sizes for the 200s?

Both are Variable Valve Timing engines, with the Pentastar V6 also having Flex Fuel capabilities ( can use E-85 if the owner wants ).

I test drove the 200 with the pentastar v6, flex fuel (E-85) last month.
I drove (574) mi. from the Detroit, Mi. area to Muskegon, Mi. (along Lake Mich.), south through Holland, Mi.; and Grand Haven (lighthouses) back east through Kalamazoo, Mi.
and back to Ann Arbor, just southwest of Detroit. Quite an overnighter, huh?
On average, the fuel cost (.40 cents) less than reg. gas; with good mileage.
The performance was excellent! Such a comfortable car to drive; I have decided to purchase one this month.

What did you average MPG with the E85? The research I saw showed pretty poor averages, but does say the car runs quite smooth?

A 574 mile "test drive"? Oh My! Had to be a "rental", and not something a Dealer would let you do with a "new" car.

Doing a Mileage Check myself..Brand New full tank off the Dealership Lot..Did 713km's before the Low Fuel light came on..Then 23 km's to the Gas Station..My Query is as the Low Fuel light only came on when the needle was touching the Empty Mark...How many litres are still in the Tank or how many kilometers should be able to travel before driving on fumes....
