2009 Chrysler Sebring 4-door LX Sedan
KELLEY BLUE BOOK REVIEW
Overview
KBB Editors' Overview
Accounting for more than one in every four passenger cars sold, the midsize sedan market remains the most popular in the country. Currently, the segment consists of the class leaders, the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry, and a host of "category alternatives," some of which are more compelling than others. Lately, though, it seems almost every new or redesigned entry shows up to the party with a combination of attributes attractive enough to merit consideration. Chrysler's entry, the Sebring Sedan, has not lived up to expectations, partly due to stiff domestic competition from both the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Malibu, but also because of perceived weaknesses in the areas of interior quality and engine noise, both of which Chrysler has addressed with the 2009 model. Still, the Sebring does offer standout styling and some of the most compelling features available in the category.
| You'll Like This Car If... | You May Not Like This Car If... |
| If you like the balanced nature of a midsize sedan but want or need some of the in-cabin goodies not traditionally available in the segment, the Sebring might be just the car for which you've been waiting. Unique styling also sets the Sebring apart from the crowd. | The Sebring sedan's overall sense of refinement doesn't match the Honda Accord's or Toyota Camry's, or even that of some domestic rivals like the Saturn Aura. |
What's Significant about this Car?
Dark Slate Grey interior color and a new acoustic insulation package mark the major changes for the 2009 Sebring. All models receive luxury floor mats, an air filtration system, four-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) and sunglass holder, while Touring and Limited trims receive more standard equipment.
