吉普将在上海车展发布“云图”概念车，近日该车图片曝光。从图片看，这款三排座SUV采用未来主义风格外观设计，同时仍保留了SUV的粗犷风格。车头可以看到倾角更大的风挡和七条竖孔格栅，两侧是细窄的LED前大灯。下面是一对挂钩和铝制车底护板。车身侧面采用熟悉的方正轮拱和塑料防擦条，造型顺滑的后视镜以及与车身齐平的车门把手更突出了该车是一款概念车而非量产车型。另外值得注意的是硕大的双色合金轮圈和越野轮胎以及比较平坦的车顶和黑色行李架。前车门上的“PHEV”插电混动字样表明这款概念车采用了插电混动系统，不过目前不清楚其技术规格。车尾可以看到细窄的尾灯组，而尾窗略微向两侧延伸。在细窄的铝制排气尾管中间是铝制车底护板。尾门中间可以看到一个小的凹槽，可见采用向两侧打开的尾门。这款概念车并不仅仅是用于展示的，吉普有意利用广汽菲亚特投产三排座SUV。
Jeep Yuntu Concept Looks Very Promising In Official Sketches
Jeep has been teasing its Shanghai-bound concept for weeks, but it’s only now we finally have some high-resolution images of the showcar. Believed to be called “Yuntu,” the three-row SUV adopts a futuristic exterior design while remaining rugged as an SUV should be.
Up front, there’s a raked windscreen while the corporate seven-slot grille is flanked by a pair of slender LED headlights. Below sits a pair of tow hooks along with an aluminum underbody protection. The side profile is home to the familiar square wheel arches with plastic body cladding also applied onto the skirts. Sleek mirrors come to accentuate it’s a concept rather than a production model, much like the flush doors handles.
Speaking of which, the handles appear to be joined in the middle, which can only mean the Yuntu has suicide doors. Also noticeable are the chunky two-tone alloy wheels with off-road tires, as well as the relatively flat roof with a pair of black rails. The “PHEV” lettering on the front doors indicates the concept will boast a plug-in hybrid powertrain, although technical specifications are not available at this point.
Moving at the back, there are thin taillight clusters and a window that extends slightly towards the sides of the vehicle. Sitting between the slender aluminum exhaust tips is the aluminum underbody protection. What’s actually interesting about the Yuntu’s derrière is the fact that it appears to have a vertically split tailgate considering there seems to be a small gap in the middle.
It is believed the concept is more than just for show as reports from China are indicating this Jeep three-row SUV will actually spawn a production model through the local GAC-Fiat joint venture.
The full reveal is scheduled for next Wednesday at Auto Shanghai 2017 and hopefully Jeep will shed some light about whether the Yuntu actually has a shot of hitting the assembly line in the foreseeable future.
