What is the Chrysler LeBaron?

LeBaron was a Chrysler name used for several kinds of cars over the years. The generations covered here belong to its later North American era, when the range included coupes and convertibles. The second generation was part of Chrysler’s move to smaller, front-wheel-drive cars on the K platform. The following generation brought a redesigned coupe and convertible.

Generations, engines and power

The second generation covered here ran from 1984 to 1986, followed by the third generation from 1987 to 1995. The second-generation car was part of Chrysler’s K-platform range; coupes and convertibles were among its body styles. The following generation continued with a distinct coupe and convertible design. US versions had petrol engines from 2.2 to 3.0 litres.

The lowest listed US consumption is 9 L/100 km, and the best combined EPA rating is 26 MPG. Canada’s listed 1995 version records 11.2 L/100 km under NRCan’s 5-cycle procedure. EPA and Canadian 5-cycle results use different tests. European figures may use NEDC or WLTP, so results from different markets should be read with their test procedures in mind.
