2013 Chrysler 200 Test Drive Review summaryImage

Typically, the presence of a convertible top makes any car incrementally more fun, and when the car in question is a Chrysler 200, the value-add of a drop-top is almost a necessity.

The Chrysler 200 is in no risk of going down in the pantheon of “Greatest Cars of All Time.” In fact, it was one of the striking symbols of a low point for the American automaker. But few cars have managed to do more with less than the Chrysler 200 and 200 Convertible, a lineup of vehicles that soldiers on and stays competitive with internals that have now become exceedingly long in the tooth.

Despite what criticisms the 200 may endure, the mere fact that we're reviewing this vehicle is a function of the fact that it sells relatively well. People are drawn to the 200’s simplicity (read: affordability). The just-enough-frills approach presents buyers with a vehicle that has just enough style and just enough features to justify the price of entry. Just.

7/10

Considering that this is a 7-year old car (if you count its Sebring predecessor as the same car, which you should), the 200 looks quite sharp. In 2010, Chrysler “replaced” the Sebring with the 200. In effect, it was a mild update that happened to have a totally new name. The changes were thoughtful and well placed. The angles and character lines were smoothed out. Thankfully, the strake-lines that previously graced the hood were eviscerated.

The 200 looks right for a contemporary sedan and convertible. Headlights feature an LED accent strip, while the lower front fascia (aerodynamic bodywork below the front bumper) is elegant and sporting.

Trims for the 200 include the base LX, Touring and Limited. Our test model was a 200 S Convertible Limited (there is no LX drop-top). The S line trim is available with either the Touring or Limited. It adds a blacked-out grille, 17- or 18-inch wheels, and special S badging inside and out. It is an up-rated option, but does well to give the 200 a more aggressive appearance.

Overall, the 200 sedan looks well put together, but the area around the rear door and rear window fit into the trunk panel in a very awkward manner. Chrysler has done the best it can to breathe life into the old Sebring, but it could not get around this bit of the architecture. On the convertible, the ghosts of the old platform are seen in the poor spacing between the convertible cover/trunklid and the rest of the body.

The cabin of the 200 looks fresh at first glance, but closer inspection reveals poor fit and finish as well. This is to be expected, given how long the vehicle has been around, but there are little touches that signify its age. The turn signal stem (on the side of the steering column) always feels like breaking a chicken bone when turning directionals on and off. There is no other way to describe it.

I looked up the car and I would call it a hidden gem. The car is a good value. Not much to say about what it’s missing? For the model. This is a classy pick for those who are in this market. Nov 23, 2025

The Limited trim package is the best of all. Too many options are missing from the Touring and lower trim packages. Overall, we are very happy with the Chrysler 200 (aka Sebring), so much so that we own 3 of these fun sporty cars.Jul 17, 2024
