2012 Chrysler 200 Preview With Specification and Prices

Chrysler is betting big with the 2012 200 model. According to some sources, it will likely hit the market as early as 2011. The mid-size sedan is Chrysler’s latest attempt at replacing the venerable, yet sluggish in sales, Sebring and Sebring convertible. If the recently revamped Jeep Grand Cherokee and the star 300/C are any indicator of the 200’s aptitude, it’ll be a very good bet for reclaiming sales lost from the Sebring.

Chrysler 200 Expected Release

The 2011-2012 Chrysler 200 Sedan, a future product of the Sterling Heights Assembly plant, will be unveiled in late November of this year at the L.A. Auto Show, while the 200 Convertible is set to hit the showroom floor at the New York Auto show, also around the end of November. The sedan is expected at dealerships around the end of 2010, and the drop-top will likely go on sale in 2011 as a 2012 model.

The 2012 Chrysler 300 is a near-luxury, large sedan from the Fiat-owned Chrysler Corporation. First introduced in 2004 as a 2005 model, the big 300 sedan was born an instant star. Consumers loved the car’s neoclassical, boxy shape and in 2006/2007 alone, Chrysler sold over 260,000 units. But, alas, the recent crisis in the American automotive market–combined with the 300’s aging design–contributed to post-2007 models’ sales to dwindle significantly.

From all indications, the new 300 will come in three flavors—the V6-powered Touring and Limited, and the HEMI V8-powered 300C and 300C All-Wheel Drive. A near jet-engine-powered 300C SRT8 or SRT10 supercar is also floating around the rumor mill.

 Chrysler 300 Interior Specifications

Previous-generation 300’s were popular, indeed. The interiors, though? Not so much, especially among automotive journalists and some consumers. For 2012, Chrysler has totally revamped the interior with a new dual-cowl center stack and applied softer, more luxurious materials elsewhere. The wood treatment—another lackluster item of the previous sedan—is reported to look and feel much better; although there’s rumors amuck that faux-wood will still be employed.

The Chrysler Town and Country started production in 1984. The first generation of these minivans were very boxy in their visual styling, and did not really take out with the public. However, by the late 90’s, the minivan became one of the best selling vehicles for Chrysler.

Chrysler Town and Country Release Date

The new 2012 Chrysler Town and Country is expected to be released towards the end of the next year. However, the rumors are that the release will be in the month of September.

Chrysler Town and Country Safety Features

The 2012 Chrysler Town and Country will include the same safety features from past years including anti-lock brakes as well as electronic stability control. In addition, there will be side impact airbags that are placed to protect passengers, in addition to the front airbags, all of which will inflate according to the pressure of the accident. A blind sport alert system is also going to be available which will warn drivers of those objects that are there, but difficult to see.

In 1995, the Chrysler Sebring was launched as a roomy, mid-size sedan. This beautiful touring vehicle has been well-known for its long, beautiful, wind-swept lines and low-to-the-ground design that resembled a hover craft cruising along the open roads. Just like the winged Chrysler logo, Sebring suggested that drivers could coast like a gentle breeze along the winding roads.

Chrysler Sebring Design

The convertible option added a touch of luxury without breaking the bank. Chrysler Sebrings are known for having a large wide body with plenty of leg room and trunk space. Due to its wider, larger size, the Sebring has a reputation for being a good ride.

Chrysler Sebring Future

Eventually, the Chrysler Sebring might be reincarnated as the Chrysler 200C when Fiat has enough time to engineer a major restructuring. This would fit in with the European naming conventions, which prefer numbers. Fiat is still working out the details.

There had been some confusion when Cerberus, the previous owner, had announced that it would end production of the Sebring after 2010. Fiat seems to want the Sebring brand to continue at least into 2012. Fiat continues to work the details out for the 2012 release.
