Year to Year Changes


1996 Chrysler Sebring: A Cirrus with a dual-cam 4-cylinder engine arrived for '96. The Chrysler-built 2.4-liter 4-cylinder produced 150 horsepower and was standard in the LX. Like the V6 Cirrus, it came only with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The V6 was optional in LX sedans. Rear headrests were new this year.
1997 Chrysler Sebring: Changes were minimal for the Cirrus sedan's third season. Interiors added a new center floor console with armrests and a storage bin. However, the 4-cylinder engine was now standard in both models, with V6 optional.
1998 Chrysler Sebring: Chrysler dropped both the 4-cylinder engine and LX trim level for the 1998 model year.
1999 Chrysler Sebring: Minor exterior changes included the addition of Chrysler's winged grille badge and standard chrome wheels. A new extra was Sentry Key, a system that disables the ignition unless the proper key is used.
2000 Chrysler Sebring: Chrysler revived the 4-cylinder engine for use under Cirrus hoods, adding a 4-cylinder LX model to join the V6 LXi sedan. Aluminum wheels and an 8-speaker AM/FM cassette stereo became standard, instead of optional. Rear child seat anchorages were added to both models.
