A best-seller over the year in American, Chrysler’s convertible Sebring was redesigned for 2008 and offered enhanced comfort, more luxurious featured and an extensive list of equipment.
Not many competitors were available on the market at the time and the Sebring was slightly better than the Toyota’s Camry Solara, with better driving dynamics and more luxurious interior features.
Based on the Dodge’s Caliber platform, the driving experience was not among the best in the class, with not-so-precise handling and noisy engines.
Offered with a conventional soft top or a retractable hardtop, the cabin was well insulated and the Sebring could be used throughout the entire year.
The Sebring was available in three trim levels: LX, Touring and Limited.
The convertible LX included a power-operated vinyl soft top, 16-inch wheels, air-conditioning, cruise control, full power accessories and optional upgraded cloth upholstery.
Stepping up to the Touring trim level 17-inch alloys and a wider list of optional features, while the top-of-the-range, the Limited edition featured a cloth top, leather upholstery and an upgraded audio system.
The convertible Sebring was available with a front-wheel-drive system only and was driven by a standard 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that produced 173 hp and 166 pound-feet of torque. The unit was mated with a 4-speed automatic transmission.
