Car financing: the 2001 Chrysler Sebring
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Chrysler Sebring for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page sets out the 2001 Chrysler Sebring for buyers, in plain words.
What to check on the Sebring
There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 387 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, air bags and suspension; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Under the hood
The 2.4L 4-cylinder is what moves it, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Plan on about 31 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 10.2 L/100 km. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $47.43 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
How big it is
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. In plain terms, its 453 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.
Best uses
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
Drive it on your own roads
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If the Sebring is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Drive the Sebring on your commute before you commit to it.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.81 in fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
