As the last generation of Chrysler Sebring was a great success, the new 2001 models resembled the previous ones in terns of exterior design, roominess and sportiness.
The 2001 updates included a more rounded design, bigger headlights, bigger stoplights and a refreshed front grille.
Slight exterior updates were made to improve the exterior design, however, the major updated consisted of a completely new range of engines. The most powerful engine that could equip the Sebring sedan was a 2.7-liter V6 unit that developed 200 hp and 197 lb.-ft of torque, mated with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The punchy engine was available only with the LXi trim level.
The Sebring in the base trim level was well-equipped with power windows, power mirrors and door locks, cruise control, 60/40 split folding rear seats and an AM/Fm stereo cassette.
With the top-of-the-range, the LXi trim level, customers enjoyed a premium cabin fitted with adjustable leather seats and a premium audio system, as well as other features such as upgraded 16-inch alloys and remote keyless entry.
Safety was highly considered with side impact airbags, improved structural dynamics, three point seatbelts and the Chrysler’s Next Generation multi-stage airbags.
The Chrysler Sebring was also available as a sedan and a coupe body style.
