Chrysler 200 sedan staying home, only convertible going to Europe
Chrysler 200 sedan staying home, only convertible going to Europe
Aug 29th 2011
Fiat is getting ready to stick For Sale signs on the Chrysler 200 in the European market. However, it seems only the 200 Convertible will be making the trip across the pond, where it will wear Lancia Flavia badging.
Why is the sedan stuck stateside? Fiat executives find it too costly to add a diesel option, and feel the 200 sedan won't sell well without an oil-burning powerplant under the hood. The convertible, however, is viewed as an attractive offering (in a manner of speaking) despite the gas-only powerplant.
Good news, American business travelers – you can now rent yourself a droptop Sebring 2.0 while jet-setting in Europe, too.
