Yuntu Jeep – new Jeep to China?

26 April 2017

At the last motor show in Shanghai Jeep has introduced the concept of Yuntu

The Americans at first hinted, and then presented the teasers and in the end presented personally at the auto show in Shanghai in its largest concept to the moment of SUV – Jeep Yuntu. Previously there were rumors about that the concept and have a prototype reviving the Wagoneer, but until this account there is no official confirmation. However, leaked data, though the SUV will be exclusively for the Chinese market, on the basis of the Cherokee. And that mass production thereof will begin in 2018.

Despite an aura of uncertainty around the model in the Jeep nobody disclaims project Wagoneer. Moreover, no one asserts that Yuntu will remain in the borders of China. Maybe it still will lead to US market, just under the Chrysler or Dodge, for example.

Returning from thought about the future, consider the real concept Jeep Yuntu. Even though the concept, the car is brutal – a huge wheel arches with the same huge wheels, wide hood and "angularity", unique to the Jeep. Narrow strips of led running lights front and rear, monumental bumpers, "eternal" grille with seven slots and also the ground clearance like KAMAZ – everything is fine in this concept.

Jeep Yuntu supplied rear side doors, hinged a body without a b-pillar – the design elements that we most certainly are not see the production model. As this is a concept, no one chasing capacity, because of the three rows of seats, and seats six instead of the traditional seven.

Salon Yuntu is a set of different sizes of monitors, probably with different functionality. Only monitor eight, if not considered three of the huge display, stretching on the entire length of the dashboard. According to everything is exactly what the Americans see the future of the automotive industry. More salon no different from the empty room with decor wood and adventitious steering wheel.

No data on a power Assembly, even in the hints, not it but on the image is clearly visible inscription PHEV, talking about"hybrid" car. It would be odd if the era of the "electrification" on the sidewall of the concept Jeep Yuntu sported the words V8. Although not possible that the production model will be equipped with gasoline engine well.
