Available Models
The massive model blitz spread over the 2005 Chrysler Sebring line already
been noted, and it's difficult not to return to it again and again. With
the Sebring Convertible, there are four trim levels from which to choose:
the Base model, GTC, Touring and Limited Editions.
Interior Features
The two-door 2005 Chrysler Sebring convertible has room for five passengers
comfortably, though let's face it, two is the perfect Convertible number
for the drive-in, if you can find one, or the trip along a coast highway.
Inside, it's all about practicality with style that hasn't been much meddled
with since last year. The GTC model features a sporty instrument cluster
and a unique patterned instrument panel bezel with GTC badging. The gauges
include speedometer, tachometer, odometer, trip odometer, fuel level and
coolant temperature.
In the up-level Touring and Limited models you'll find leather upholstery,
a leather-wrapped steering wheel with radio controls, a 6-way power driver
seat, a trip computer, a compass and an outside-temperature indicator.
Options available for the Sebring convertible include heated front seats
(Touring and Limited) a navigation system and high-end Infinity Audio,
standard on the Limited and optional for the rest.
Exterior Features
The power-closing top of the 2005 Chrysler Sebring convertible is easy
to use and fast. Double insulated, it has enough thickness to protect
you from the elements and keep you warm inside but it is still a simple
push of a button and a couple of levers to lock it closed. The convertible
has a unique body design within the Sebring family. Other exterior features
include different wheel and tire choices, fog lights (Touring and Limited)
and a rear spoiler on the GTC Edition, a slightly sportier model of the
three.
Performance
Like other Sebring models, the Convertible has two engine choices, shared
with the longer and larger Sedan, resulting in a slightly different performance
profile. The first, found in Base models, is a 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder dohc
with 150 horsepower at 5200 rpm and 167 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm. The
second, powering the rest of the line, is a 2.7-liter V6 that will move
you with 200 horsepower at 5800 rpm and 190 lb-ft of torque at 4850 rpm.
4-speed automatic transmission is standard to produce 21/28 mpg (city/hwy).
The Sebring is a front-wheel drive vehicle. A fully-independent short/long-arm
double wishbone suspension provides a flat ride. This suspension configuration
combines with the Sebring's stiff structure and refined steering to give
drivers a highly responsive ride but it varies according to the model
choice, a feature that demonstrates the extent of the differences between
these cars. The Base has standard Sebring suspension, as described above,
the GTC has a firmer sport suspension, while the Touring and Limited editions
feature the Touring suspension with reduced understeer and a smoother
long-distance ride.
Safety and Security
Next Generation multistage driver and front passenger airbags inflate
with forces appropriate to the severity of impact.. This is enhanced by
traction control and antilock brakes (standard on Limited and optional
on other models). Theft-deterrent and GPS navigation systems are also
available to add to security for Sebring drivers and occupants.
