Redesigned in 2007, the 2008 Sebring brings a new convertible model, as well as an all-wheel-drive version of the sedan. This 2008 Crossfire receives a standard tire pressure monitoring system and will be the final model year of production for the vehicle. The 2008 300C receives a minor external redesign, while the Town & Country receives a complete redesign, featuring a 4.0-liter V6 and a new six-speed automatic transmission. Design-wise, the 2008 PT Cruiser remains largely the same, but Chrysler offers renewed options packages. The Pacifica also gets minor changes along the lines of additional standard features including automatic daytime-running headlights and SIRIUS satellite radio.
Despite recent successes with the likes of the 300, and making the automaker more successful than its domestic rivals, Chrysler still relies on special offers to move merchandise and remain competitive. You can expect to find a combination of discounts, including rebates and low APRs, at any one time.
Chrysler has been the darling of the automotive press recently, portrayed as bucking the downward trend among domestic automakers (even though it's owned by a German company). In fact, Chrysler has provided some of the few highlights for DaimlerChrysler, which is ironic given that, when Daimler acquired Chyrsler, many observers thought the Americans were the flounders and the Germans the rescuers. Looking to get its hands on some cash, Chrysler recently liquidated its partial ownership in Mitsubishi, although the companies still collaborate on some vehicle production and marketing.
