The two-tone instrument panel features a darker colour more prominent to prevent light from reflecting into the windshield for optimum visibility. The full-width top pad has a soft and luxurious feel.

Other unique design elements include a spine moulded into the instrument panel top pad that carries over the central character line in the hood to the signature Chrysler clock. The deeply-recessed instrument panel uses electroluminescent lighting for the silver gauge faces.

Sebring Convertible offers generous seating for four in premium heated leather-faced seats with Tortoise Shell and chrome accents. A variety of upscale features enhance interior storage and occupant comfort for a pleasant driving experience. Sebring’s interior is more spacious, with more front legroom and a roomier rear seat area than the previous generation Sebring. Both front and second row occupants sit higher.

Sebring Convertible features a two-tone theme with dark and light instrument panel and door trim.

The seats are tall in appearance with rounded shoulders that reflect the stylish Chrysler interior theme. Driver’s seat offers convenient 6-way power adjustment for maximum comfort. The two-way head restraints are softly rounded to complement the shoulder profile of the seat back for an integrated appearance and taller to provide enhanced whiplash protection. The rear seat has two fixed head restraints for extra protection.

Infotainment

The standard AM/FM/CD MP3 six-speaker stereo system offers an input jack for personal MP3 players.

The optional AM/FM 6-disc DVD MP3 player offers even more flexibility and entertainment options.

An available 6-speaker Boston Acoustics® package gives Sebring Convertible greater audio punch and clarity.

The available segment-exclusive MyGIG™ Multimedia Infotainment System is the most advanced infotainment system Chrysler has ever offered. Its 20GB hard drive stores playlists, maps, points of interest, JPEG images, and more. It also rips, stashes, organizes, and shuffles more than 1600 digital music files from CDs or via the integrated USB port. The GPS navigation function displays a bird’s-eye map views.

Storage and convenience features throughout the passenger compartment optimize the use of space for a high level of refinement and functionality.

Top up or top down, Sebring Convertible’s striking silhouette catches the eye and rouses instant admiration. The long hood and extended roofline are perfectly accented by sculpted character lines for an even more athletic stance.

Sebring Convertible has a 74 mm (2.9 in.) longer wheelbase than the previous model. The added length provides more useable cargo space with the soft or hardtop retracted. Two golf bags can be stowed in the trunk when the hardtop is down.

Sebring Convertible is also 51 mm (2 in.) wider and 90 mm (3.5 in.) taller than the previous generation convertible to allow more generous passenger room.

Sebring is the first Chrysler convertible with either a retractable soft-top, which is available in vinyl or cloth, or a retractable metal hardtop

The soft top gives Sebring Convertible a smooth, neat appearance when up, while the hardtop provides a sleek, integrated appearance that enhances the perception of all-season utility. The retractable soft top roof is standard; a steel retractable hardtop is optional. A sensor in the trunk detects if the Folding Luggage Protector is in place to ensure that the trunk contents are protected before the top stows.

Both the hard and soft tops can be conveniently operated from either the instrument panel or with the key fob. The key fob can be used to lock and unlock doors, activate the illuminated entry system or even lower the top and windows. A remote starter is available.

A standard power hard tonneau neatly conceals each of the tops when retracted..

The Sebring Convertible Touring model’s 2.7L DOHC V6 engine with 189 hp offers an excellent combination of performance, economy and quietness.

A new 3.5L SOHC High Output V6 with 235 hp and 232 lb-ft of torque is standard on Sebring Limited. This smooth engine combines effortless power and quietness.

The Flex Fuel (FFV) 2.7L DOHC 24-valve V6 engine produces 189 hp and 191 lb-ft of torque and can operate efficiently on any blend of gasoline and fuel-grade ethanol up to E-85. A new intake manifold improves low-speed torque at part- or full-throttle operation.

The refined 3.5L High Output SOHC 24-valve V6 engine features a three-plenum intake manifold with electronically controlled manifold tuning valve and short-runner valves for optimum efficiency.

Two automatic transmissions are available: a new four-speed 41TES, is matched to the 2.7L V6 engine. A new six-speed automatic with Auto/Stick™ is paired with the 3.5L HO V6 only.

The MacPherson strut front suspension and multilink rear suspension are efficient designs for packaging a four-wheel independent suspension while increasing wheel travel for improved ride quality.

The front suspension cradle is solid mounted and the rear suspension crossmember is isolated to the body for improved ride plushness and reduced Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH).

18-inch aluminum wheels are standard on Limited, optional on Touring model.

All seating positions use three-point belts for optimum occupant protection in many types of crashes. Convertible front seat belts are all-belts-to-seat due to the unique mounting and packaging requirements for occupant comfort and ingress/egress to the rear seat. Rear seat belt retractors are mounted inboard, attached to the structure behind the seat for occupant comfort and convenience.

All seat belt systems except the driver’s include Automatic Locking Retractors (ALRs). ALRs lock the seat belt webbing into position by extending the belt all the way out and then adjusting the belt to the desired length to restrain a child seat or secure a large item in a seat.

Convertible rear seats include two pairs of lower child seat anchors used in the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) system. This allows installation of up to two seats in the outboard rear seats.

• Standard Sentry Key™ Engine Immobilizer System that deters vehicle theft by requiring a properly encoded key to start the engine
• Standard Remote Keyless Entry locks and unlocks doors and turns on interior lamps. It also arms and disarms the Vehicle Theft Security Alarm (if equipped)
• Vehicle Theft Security Alarm, standard on Sebring Limited, protects the vehicle from theft by monitoring both the door and rear decklid-ajar switches and the ignition circuit for unauthorized entry
