The Chrysler Sebring is a line of Mid-size Car s sold by DaimlerChrysler . There have been three entirely different vehicles with this name:
1995-2000 The Sebring was a trim line of the Plymouth Satellite Mid-size Coupe of the 1970s. The Chrysler Sebring was introduced as a Coupe for 1995, and later, a convertible was released for 1996. Both models replaced the Chrysler LeBaron . The convertible was built off of the Chrysler JA Platform also used for the Cirrus sedan, while the coupe was based off the Mitsubishi Eclipse . The Chrysler Sebring was named after Sebring, Florida , the site of the renowned endurance car race called the 12 Hours Of Sebring . 2001-2006 The Sebring name was now used on three different Car s for 2001. The coupe was based on the Mitsubishi Eclipse while the Sedan and Convertible were Chrysler JR Platform successors to the Chrysler Cirrus . The Sebring sedan is also a de facto successor to the Plymouth Breeze , since most Plymouths (e.g. Voyager , Prowler ) were rebranded as Chryslers since the Marque 's demise in 2001. The car got a facelift in 2004 by getting a new front fascia, as well as a Chrysler logo on the rear. The Sebring coupe was discontinued after 2005. The Sebring is sold as the Chrysler Cirrus in Mexico . Trim levels Throughout the 2001-2006 generation sedan many different trim levels were offered. Though there were multiple variations of some(for example plain Touring and '''Touring Platinum Series'''), just the main ones are listed below.
2007-PRESENT The Sebring was replaced with a new model based on the JS Platform for 2007. Because no 2007 Convertible is offered, the 2006 Sebring Convertible was left to fill the void, remaining in showrooms and on the company's website until the 2008 model's release. The new Sebring borrows many styling cues from the 2003 Chrysler Airflite Concept . It also has several Chrysler-signature styling cues, several of which come from the Chrysler Crossfire . Additionally, the new Sebring is the first Chrysler model to offer DaimlerChrysler's "MyGig" infotainment system. The convertible version will be released in 2007 as a 2008 model, and for the first time will feature an optional power hardtop in addition to the available cloth and vinyl tops. Chrysler offers three engines for the 2007 Sebring, the 2.4 L GEMA I4 , the 2.7 L EER V6 , and the 3.5 L EGJ V6. The 3.5 L V6 is coupled to Chrysler's first ever 6-speed Automatic Transmission , which employs Autostick technology, and the 2.7 L V6 is capable of running on cleaner-burning E85 . Export vehicles will be offered with a 2.0 L Turbocharged common-rail diesel made by Volkswagen and the 2.0 L GEMA engine. {Link without Title} Trim levels
