谍照记者最近拍到了2018款吉普牧马人内装照片，从照片看，比现行版更具现代感，色彩组合更丰富。牧马人车厢内采用酒红色哑光内饰，空调出风口为镀铬金属边框。中控台顶部是硕大的Uconnect信息娱乐系统，下面是空调冷热风控制面板。这辆测试车采用了加热方向盘和座椅。中控台底部是多媒体接口和电动车窗开关。从图片上还能看到排挡杆，不过这款车配备的是手动变速器。虽然下一代牧马人仍保留了传统的方正造型，但配备了铝制车门和引擎盖，这有助于降低车重。谍照还显示，新车还将提供可拆卸车顶，这将为消费者提供更安全的硬顶和敞篷驾驶的体验。至于动力系统，将提供多款引擎供消费者选择。其中包括基于现行版V6引擎的升级版以及四缸涡轮引擎。未来还将增加涡轮柴油甚至混动版本。2018款牧马人将在今年11月的洛杉矶车展亮相，当月开始量产。现行版牧马人将生产至明年2月。
2018 Jeep Wrangler's Interior Fully Revealed In New Spy Photos
New spy photos give us the first good look at the 2018 Jeep Wrangler’s interior. It’s a much more modern and colorful cabin than the current model.
Inside, this Wrangler features an expanse of burgundy-color material with a satin finish and metallic rings around the vents. In the center, there’s a large version of FCA’s Uconnect infotainment system. Below it, there’s a panel for the HVAC controls. This test mule has heating for the steering wheel and seats, too. At the bottom of the center stack, there are media inputs and the power window switches, which further confirms that the doors are still removable. These shots also show the driver’s hand on the gearshift, which shows a manual gearbox is still available.
While the next-gen Wrangler retains its traditional boxy aesthetic, a switch to aluminum doors and hood should help cut weight. Spy photos also show the availability of removable roof panels that would offer a compromise between the security of a hardtop and open-air experience of a convertible.Customers will eventually have several engine options for their Wrangler. An updated version of the current V6 should be available launch, and there’s also evidence of a turbocharged four-cylinder in the lineup. Later, a turbodiesel and possibly even a hybrid will give buyers even more choices.
The 2018 Wrangler will reportedly debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, and production will begin sometime that month. The existing Wrangler will allegedly remain in production until March 2018, too.
