Chrysler has yet to confirm whether or not the redesigned 2015 200 will be offered as a two-door convertible, but we think the sedan would make a pretty drop top given its impressive new design.
We're willing to bet that Chrysler will introduce a cabriolet based on the 200 model, especially if the sedan proves successful, but it's safe to assume that the 200 Convertible won't arrive until 2016.

The new version would be offered with the same engine choices (2.4-liter Tigershark, 3.6-liter Pentastar V6), unless Chrysler decides to launch it as a 200C and 200S, which means only the latter unit will be under the hood. Either way, the cabriolet will feature the sedan's nine-speed gearbox as standard.

But until some actual news on the 200 Convertible becomes available, there's a rendering created by Theophilus Chin that you might enjoy. However, it's way too early to talk about a cabriolet, so let's focus on the sedan for now, shall we?

When it finally arrives, the Chrysler 200 will use a nine-speed ZF automatic transmission, while fuel economy would be situated around the 36 miles per gallon highway mark.

We also believe the starting price tag for the Chrysler 200 would be placed somewhere around the $21,700 mark, but that doesn't include the destination fee. Speaking of which, clients might have the opportunity to choose between four trim levels, namely LX, Limited, 200S and the range-topping 200C.

So, will a cabriolet version be ever built? Well, it's hard to say, but we doubt it. However, if Chrysler decides to come up with an open-top version, we hope they have a good look at what Theophilus Chin delvered here, because we like what we see here. There's only one more opinion to be taken into considerations, and that's your. Therferore, head below and tell us what you think of the rendering.
