With the coupe version of the Chrysler Sebring being discontinued at the end of 2006, the new generation model was only available with sedan and convertible bodies.
The 2006 Sebring Sedan - marketed in the US as a 2007-year model - was based on an entirely new JS platform and shared several styling cues with the 2003 Chrysler Airflite concept car and the Crossfire model. It also came with several trim level: base, touring, limited, LX and limited 2WD. The Sebring is also due to be assembled in Russia - under GAZ license - and China - produced at the Beijing-Benz DaimlerChrysler Automotive Co.

Developed for both sides of the Atlantic, the second generation of Chrysler Sebring was a mid-size sedan.
It was fit for five adults and it offered decent powertrains.

The first generation of the Sebring was a joint-venture development program with Mitsubishi Motors. That lineup was not so well received by the customers, so the second generation was based on an entirely new platform, named JR for the sedan. The coupe version was still shared its components with the Japanese car-maker.

Its styling was new and bold for a conservative brand such as Chrysler. The narrow front end and the swept headlights were a promise for a dynamic vehicle. It was in the same category as the Honda Accord, but it sat lower and it was offered with more powerful engines.

Depending on the trim level, the Sebring featured remote keyless entry, leather-faced eight-way power driver’s seat, special “touring” suspension, and a traveler’s display, installed at the top of the center stack. That LCD included a compass, outside temperature, and trip computer. The rear seats could comfortably accommodate three adults, with sufficient legroom, but not that much headroom for adults over 6 ft (180 cm) high.

The Sebring was offered with a choice of three engines: a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter, a turbocharged 2.4-liter, and a naturally aspirated 2.7-liter. The latter was available exclusively with a 4-speed automatic, while the others were fitted as standard with a 5-speed manual.

As the last generation of Chrysler Sebring was a great success, the new 2001 models resembled the previous ones in terns of exterior design, roominess and sportiness.
Slight exterior updates were made to improve the exterior design, however, the major updated consisted of a completely new range of engines. The most powerful engine that could equip the Sebring sedan was a 2.7-liter V6 unit that developed 200 hp and 197 lb.-ft of torque, mated with a 4-speed automatic transmission. The punchy engine was available only with the LXi trim level.

With the base LX trim level, the Chrysler Sebring came with a less powerful 2.4-liter 4-cylinder unit offering 150 hp. The Sebring in the base trim level was well-equipped with power windows, power mirrors and door locks, cruise control, 60/40 split folding rear seats and an AM/Fm stereo cassette.

With the top-of-the-range, the LXi trim level, customers enjoyed a premium cabin fitted with adjustable leather seats and a premium audio system, as well as other features such as upgraded 16-inch alloys and remote keyless entry.

Safety was highly considered with side impact airbags, improved structural dynamics, three point seatbelts and the Chrysler’s Next Generation multi-stage airbags.

The Chrysler Sebring was also available as a coupe and a convertible body style.
