菲亚特-克莱斯勒汽车公司CEO 马尔乔内(Sergio Marchionne)近日暗示,下一代吉普牧马人将采用铝制车身。在今年初，他称表示“我们需要进一步降低车重，升级车身结构。”新一代吉普牧马人将于2017年或更晚发布。而在最近举行记者招待会上，他表示，下一代牧马人将采用铝制车身。新车不仅将采用铝制车身，而且连全尺寸备胎也将替换成小尺寸轮胎并设置在车底。此外，可折叠车顶也将被电动折叠软顶所替代，不过这项配置将作为选装件。

 

Next generation Jeep Wrangler getting aluminum body

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' CEO Sergio Marchionne hinted at an aluminum body for the next generation Jeep Wrangler.

 

At the beginning of the year we heard Sergio saying "we need to take weight out" and "we know we need to update the architecture" when talking about the next generation Jeep Wrangler set to come out in 2017 or later. Now, during the Fiat-Chrysler Investor Day press conference he said aluminum could be the way to go for the next-gen Wrangler.

 

Taking the aluminum route will shave off some considerable weight which could be further extended by replacing the full-size spare wheel with a smaller one positioned beneath the car. In addition, it is believed the fold-down windshield will be dropped while a power-retractable soft top will be optionally offered.
