The 2014 Chrysler 200 has a strong V6 engine with a composed ride and handling. The 200 convertible remains a good choice if you want an open-air driving experience and need seating for four. For 2014, the biggest change for the Chrysler 200 is that the S model is now offered on the Touring and Limited trim levels as a package, rather than as a stand-alone model.

Two engines are available on the 2014 Chrysler 200: a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 173 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque and a 3.6-liter V6 that produces 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Both versions of the Chrysler 200 are notable for their smooth ride and composed handling. You might expect mid-size American sedans to drive like rental cars, but the 2014 Chrysler 200's suspension and steering place it at the top of its category. It's a surprising and welcome pleasure. In testing, a Chrysler 200 sedan with the V6 engine went from zero to 60 in 6.9 seconds. A V6-equipped convertible needed 7.5 seconds.

Currently the entry-level car in the Chrysler lineup, the midsize 200 comes in sedan and convertible body styles. Relative to the competition, the 200 convertible also offers ample room for a family of four and is simply more practical than the other convertibles in this price range. The noise insulation is exemplary, which is nice for using the Bluetooth or catching some tunes.

If you're drawn to the attractive interior at an affordable price, like the refined level of ride and handling, and are ready to spring for the powerful V6 engine, check out the 2014 Chrysler 200. Learn more about this model on the Official 2014 Chrysler 200 Website.
