Chrysler catalytic converters run about $25 to $325 for one original unit in 2026. The 300 HEMI leads at $125 to $325, the minivan family brings $100 to $275, 200, Sebring and 300M units $75 to $250, PT Cruiser units $75 to $225, and Cummins SCR units only $25 to $100.
One converter, four badges
If you grew up in one of these vans, or drove your family around in one, the vehicle probably wore a specific name on the tailgate. The converter underneath did not care which.
Catalyst databases list a single minivan reference against the Plymouth Voyager, the Dodge Caravan, the Chrysler Voyager, the Chrysler Town and Country and the Chrysler Pacifica together. Four decades of school runs, three badges, one part number.
That matters practically rather than sentimentally. If you are selling a Town and Country unit and a buyer quotes you as though it were an unfamiliar item, it is not. It is the same converter they buy off Caravans every week, and the Dodge figures are a fair cross-check on the same part.

Ranges are compiled from published core-buyer code lists, catalyst exchange transaction data and current scrap guides; they are not a live per-code feed. Figures are per unit, and V6 and V8 models carry two.
Large Chrysler: a grade that spans three brands
The trade does not sort these units by badge at all. It sorts them by size, under a grade name you will hear at the counter.
Large Chrysler is a recognised class covering the bigger converters removed from Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles alike. Published figures put the class at roughly $89 to $266, depending on condition, weight and what is actually left inside.
So three things follow. A buyer using that term on your Chrysler is reading it correctly. The Dodge and Jeep pages price the same family of hardware and are useful comparisons. And the class name tells you what the buyer is judging: size and internal content, not the vehicle it came off.
The triangular honeycomb
Here is a genuinely useful identification marker, and one that is specific to this family.
Many original Chrysler converters have a triangular honeycomb pattern inside, visible if you look into the open end. Recyclers treat it as an indicator of original manufacture rather than an aftermarket replacement.
That is worth two minutes with a torch before you speak to anyone. If you can see a triangular cell structure and the unit has a stamped code, you are holding an original, and the figures in the table apply. If you see a plain circular or square cell pattern with no code, you are probably holding an aftermarket shell worth $5 to $50.
One caution attached to the same check: look, do not empty. The value is in what is inside, and a converter with the substrate removed is worth almost nothing regardless of the pattern it used to have.
The PT Cruiser question
The PT Cruiser attracts more converter searches than its sales figures would suggest, partly because so many are now reaching end of life at once.
It carries a single main unit rather than a pair, at $75 to $225. Naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions use different parts, so the year and engine matter when quoting.
For context on the repair side, aftermarket replacement units for the PT Cruiser list widely from about $75 to $215, with premium branded options considerably higher. If the car is bound for a dismantler, the original is worth more sold as a core than left on the vehicle.
A warning about SCR units
One part of the modern range is worth far less than its size suggests, and sellers of diesel trucks should know before being disappointed.
From 2013 the Cummins diesel vehicles in this family use selective catalytic reduction, an entirely different emissions technology that relies on urea injection rather than heavy precious metal loading. Catalyst databases record one such SCR reference with a recent six-month high of only about 46 US dollars.
So a large, heavy SCR unit off a diesel Ram is not a large payday. Expect $25 to $100. The valuable diesel components on those vehicles are the oxidation catalyst and the particulate filter, which the Dodge page covers.
Chrysler prices around the world
Platinum, palladium and rhodium settle in US dollars, so a Chrysler reference holds the same metal value in every market. Currency and local buyer depth are what change. The table converts the Chrysler span into each market’s money at today’s rate.
Market Currency Unit Equivalent range United States USD per unit $25.00 to 325.00 United Kingdom GBP per unit £18.49 to 240.41 Canada CAD per unit C$34.58 to 449.50 Australia AUD per unit A$34.69 to 451.00 Germany EUR per unit €21.53 to 279.85 India INR per unit ₹2,364 to 30,728 Bangladesh BDT per unit ৳3,073 to 39,952 United Arab Emirates AED per unit AED91.81 to 1,194 Saudi Arabia SAR per unit SAR93.75 to 1,219 Turkey TRY per unit ₺1,212 to 15,750 South Africa ZAR per unit R398.94 to 5,186 China CNY per unit CN¥167.98 to 2,184
These conversions are the metal-value anchor rather than a local quote. Chrysler sold mainly in North America, though the Voyager and 300 reached Europe and other markets under Chrysler and Lancia badges.
Questions people actually ask
How much is a Chrysler catalytic converter worth as scrap?
Between roughly $25 and $325 for one original unit in 2026. Cummins SCR units bring only $25 to $100, Cirrus, Stratus and Neon units $60 to $200, PT Cruiser units $75 to $225, 200, Sebring and 300M units $75 to $250, minivan units $100 to $275, and 300 HEMI units $125 to $325.
Do Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth minivan converters price the same?
Yes. Catalyst databases list a single reference against the Plymouth Voyager, Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Voyager, Chrysler Town and Country and Chrysler Pacifica together. It is one part across the whole minivan family, so quote the stamped code rather than the badge.
What is a Large Chrysler catalytic converter?
It is a recognised trade class covering the bigger converters taken from Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep vehicles, priced at roughly $89 to $266 depending on condition and internal content. A buyer using that term on your vehicle is grading it correctly rather than guessing.
How can I tell if my Chrysler converter is original?
Look into the open end. Many original Chrysler units have a triangular honeycomb cell pattern, which recyclers treat as an indicator of factory manufacture. Combined with a stamped code, that confirms an original. A plain pattern with no code usually means an aftermarket unit worth $5 to $50.
Why is my diesel Ram SCR unit worth so little?
Because selective catalytic reduction is a different technology from a three-way catalyst. It relies on urea injection rather than heavy platinum, palladium and rhodium loading. One catalogued SCR reference shows a recent six-month high of about $46, so expect $25 to $100 despite the size of the component.

How many catalytic converters does a Chrysler have?
V6 and V8 models including the 300, Pacifica, Town and Country and 300M carry two, one per exhaust bank. The PT Cruiser and other four-cylinder models carry a single main unit, usually with a small manifold pre-cat worth $20 to $100 on its own.
