August 31, 2009 , Auburn Hills, Mich. -  The 2010 Chrysler Sebring Convertible delivers what no other convertible on the road can: Chrysler’s sleek and elegant design, exhilarating performance, 29-mpg highway fuel efficiency, a spacious interior that comfortably seats four adults and enough trunk room to hold two golf bags, even when the top is down.

With a new smooth appearance hood and new wheel designs, the 2010 Chrysler Sebring Convertible gets an updated appearance. Convertible top options include a body-color painted steel retractable hard top (standard on Sebring Convertible Limited) and a power cloth top (standard on Sebring LX and Touring), both featuring a tonneau cover on all models. Top up or down, Chrysler Sebring Convertible provides the benefits of a coupe and the true open-air freedom of a convertible at an affordable price.

As many as four occupants may experience Chrysler Sebring Convertible’s comfortable, roomy interior. Rear-seat passengers have plenty of head and leg room, while a best-in-class 13.1 cu.ft. of trunk space gives Sebring Convertible year-round functionality.

The 2010 Chrysler Sebring Convertible’s standard 2.4-liter four-cylinder World Engine with dual Variable-valve Timing (VVT) delivers 20 miles-per-gallon (mpg) in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. In addition, a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 235 horsepower (175 kW) and 232 lb.-ft. (232 N•m) of torque coupled with a six-speed automatic transmission with Auto Stick delivers excellent performance and fuel efficiency, as well as smooth and quiet operation. Sebring Convertible’s 3.5-liter V-6 engine achieves 16 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.

Chrysler Sebring Convertible has a rigid body structure that provides a quiet, comfortable ride and reduces cowl shake, even when the top is down. Front-wheel-drive architecture and three-box vehicle design contribute to a body that is 2.5-times stiffer in twist and 1.5-times stiffer in bending than the previous-generation Chrysler Sebring Convertible. These refinements make the Chrysler Sebring Convertible structure stiffer than other convertibles on the market that cost thousands of dollars more.
