Electrifying Jeep

July 2017

While the Jeep Yuntu concept is a China-only seven-seater SUV, its new design language, as well as its plug-in hybrid powertrain, could set a precedent for the brand’s upcoming models in other markets.

Electrifying Jeep

Allow us to tell you, once again, what happens behind the scenes in our line of work. Storytelling and adding insight is great in a car review or a news piece, but obtaining accurate information related to a new vehicle can be quite difficult at times. Take, for instance, the Jeep Yuntu concept. Jeep’s parent company, FCA, is currently shying away from sharing any details about the new model. And there’s a very good reason for that, the company doesn’t want to give us any false hopes. The only bit of info that we have about the Yuntu is that it’s going to be a China-specific product. That also explains why the concept car made its debut in Shanghai, and not in any other part of the world. But, does lack of information mean that it won’t make it to the other parts of the world? We don’t think so…
