Chrysler 200 is Imported From Detroit and High On Style

The Chrysler 200 is the American automaker’s entry in the premium midsize segment, offering the sharp, chiseled look and comfortable interior Chrysler has become known for. After a prominent Super Bowl ad featuring Eminem, the 200 came into the limelight as a new, refreshing alternative to the typical Japanese midsize sedan.

The 200 replaced the Sebring in Chrysler’s model lineup and, as was the case with that car, is available as a sedan or soft-top convertible. Though parts of the platform carry over, Chrysler made numerous improvements to areas like body strength, transmission options and powertrains.

Power comes from either a 2.4-liter four-cylinder making 173 horsepower or a new 283-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, the latter returning an excellent 19 city/29 highway mpg and winning a coveted place among one of Wards Automotive’s 10 Best Engines. The 2.4-liter is even better at 20 city/31 highway mpg.

A 6-speed automatic transmission sends power to the front wheels. The Sebring sedan seats five, while the convertible seats four with a rear seat more spacious than typical open-top cars. Inside is Chrysler’s UConnect infotainment system with voice controls and a bold touchscreen. A sportier 200S model uses the V6 engine, adding meaner styling and performance upgrades.

The convertible model is much stronger and rigid than was the Sebring, meaning a more buttoned-down and refined ride lacking shakes or groans when going over tough bumps and potholes. It is a favorite for rental fleets looking to offer their clients some fun top-down motoring.
