1996 Chrysler Sebring Review

Lots of image, lots of room.
Interior
If you've seen the interior of a Mitsubishi Eclipse or Eagle Talon, you've seen much

of the Sebring's cabin hardware. The dashboard is carried over virtually intact,

complete with eye-catching shape and legible instrumentation. Not to mention dual

airbags.

Base model gauges include speedometer, tachometer, fuel level and coolant temperature;

V6 versions get an oil pressure gauge as well.

The key element missing in most small sport coupes is roominess, and the Sebring has

that in abundance. The cabin can hold four adults easily for short and medium-length

trips, or two adults plus two kids for any distance. None of the smaller sport coupes

can make this claim.

The seats are comfortable and adjust to fit almost all occupants. The front

passenger's seat has a one-touch slide-forward feature that substantially improves

access to the rear. On paper, the rear seat holds three people, but two is a more

realistic proposition.

Sebring is quiet inside, too. A combination of good aerodynamic design and plenty of

sound insulation keeps outside noises at bay, allowing occupants to enjoy the standard

AM/FM/cassette stereo sound system (with four speakers in LX, eight in LXi) without

interference.

Air conditioning is also standard on all models, whether entry-level (Sebring LX or

Avenger) or fancy (LXi or ES). Many of the upgrade model's standard features,

including power windows/mirrors/door locks, cruise control, cast-aluminum wheels,

remote keyless entry and a HomeLink 3-channel transmitter that can be programmed to

operate garage-door openers and two additional remote-control home features, can be

ordered for base versions. Leather interior trim is optional on LXi and EX models

only.

Options common to all Sebrings and Avengers are a power tilt/slide sunroof, power

driver's seat, and a smoker's kit that adds a lighter and ashtray to the center

console. Next Page
