The 1999 Chrysler/Dodge Stratus JA was a compact car that marked a significant departure from its predecessor, the Dodge Spirit. Sharing its platform with the Mitsubishi Eclipse, the Stratus offered a more modern and refined driving experience, appealing to a broader audience than the more utilitarian Spirit. While both Chrysler and Dodge offered the Stratus, the two models differed slightly in appearance and trim levels. The Chrysler Stratus was generally perceived as the more upscale option, while the Dodge Stratus focused on sporty styling and performance.

Under the hood, the 1999 Stratus featured a range of engine options. The base engine was a 2.0L four-cylinder, while a more powerful 2.4L four-cylinder was also available. For those seeking more spirited performance, a 2.5L V6 engine was offered, providing ample power and torque for highway cruising and spirited driving. The Stratus was available in a variety of trims, including the base SE, the mid-range ES, and the sporty R/T models. The Stratus offered a comfortable interior with ample room for both passengers and cargo. It was also well-equipped, with standard features such as power windows, power locks, and air conditioning. Optional features included a sunroof, leather upholstery, and a premium sound system. Safety was also a priority, with the Stratus offering features such as driver and passenger airbags, anti-lock brakes, and a reinforced passenger compartment.
