Sebring was Chrysler's version of the Dodge Avenger, a front-drive sports coupe that went on sale in fall of 1994. Sebrings did not reach dealerships until early 1995. While the Avenger leaned toward the sporty side, Sebring aimed at more luxury-oriented buyers. Both cars had unusually roomy rear seats for sports coupes. Sebrings had different front and rear styling and, being more costly, a higher level of interior trim and standard equipment.LX Sebrings used a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine, rated 140 horsepower. A 5-speed manual transmission was standard; 4-speed automatic optional. The upscale LXi has a more potent 2.5-liter V6 and came only with automatic.
