When it comes to Luxury Sedan it might be easy to miss Philadelphia Motors's Baron. But don't worry! We the full scoop on this Luxury Sedan. We'll let you know where it stands between the Senator and the Balm. So continue reading to find out more about the Philadelphia Motors Baron.

On first glance the Philadelphia Motors Baron seems to have everything you'd want in a daily driver on the track. It is not overly powerful, but it packs enough punch to get up and go. While you won't win any races, you won't hold up any traffic. The Luxury Sedan's 87 hp @ 4441RPMs 2551 cc I4 engine does well enough under load to keep you satisfied. The Baron is able to top out at 95 mph and accelerates at 28.641s 0 to 60 mph. The engine puts out 83 lb-ft of torque which can haul 22 lbs. Ultimately the Philadelphia Motors Baron is your average Luxury Sedan on the track. In the real world the Philadelphia Motors Baron could not even handle a U-turn, let alone our beloved test track. Why the hell would engineers at Philadelphia Motors even put a steering wheel on this train? This has to be one of the worst handling Luxury Sedan I have ever driven.

When we got to interior testing on the Philadelphia Motors Baron we found it to be below average. While you wouldn't want to use this vehicle on a road trip, it is comfortable enough for short rides and tiny commutes.

In terms of passenger and cargo space the Philadelphia Motors Baron's 34 cu-ft could be considered quite adequate for its class. The seats are roomy enough for almost every person, it can store what you would expect, and there is still enough room left over to have a bunch of knickknacks. It's hard to see where Philadelphia Motors could improve this car. It's good. Very good.

The team at Philadelphia Motors cut a lot of corners when it came to building the Baron. It is apparent in everything from the interior to the body panels to the paints to the molding. Its not designed to last. But its not exactly the worst car on the market. You can do better.

Reliability of the Philadelphia Motors Baron is not good. It's really dependent on how well you take care of the vehicle and luck of the draw. Almost all Baron have some sort of issue within their lifetime. But it's never exactly enough of a pain to make you regret your purchasing decision. If avoiding the mechanic shop is your priority, it may be best to look elsewhere.

Philadelphia Motors Baron's 17.9 mpg city and leaves plenty of room for improvement. We do truly believe that the engineers at Philadelphia Motors can squeeze a few more mileage out of this vehicle to get it up to at least average.

If safety was your priority, then this isn't the best on the market. That being said it's better than a lot of vehicles as well. The folks at Philadelphia Motors didn't make safety their focus, but there are enough features here to keep most people's minds at ease. And that's pretty much the jest of the thing. The Philadelphia Motors Baron is average in all respects.

In the end the Philadelphia Motors Baron provide decent value for the money. It's not the best car in the Luxury Sedan segment, but it won't disappoint. You could do a lot worse. If this model appeals to you I see no reason to dissuade you from it.
