吉普计划针对中国市场推出新款七座跨界车，最近该车专利图现身国外网站。吉普曾在今年4月的上海车展发布了一款七座跨界车云图，不过该车更像是一辆概念车，它采用向后开启后门，细窄大灯和后视镜以及硕大玻璃车厢，而最近亮相的专利图看起来更接近量产版车型。据说该车将被命名为大司令官（GrandCommander）。从专利图看，该车外观很漂亮，造型方正并带有运动风格。车头设计采用低气坝，宽进气口和引擎盖上的隆起，让人联想到Trackhawk。虽然前后悬设计似乎导致接近角和离去角不大，但不会后多少人会真正开着这辆车去越野。车顶线条很长且很平直，尾窗上方能看到一个小扰流器。据美国汽车网站报道，该车将搭载一台2.0升四缸涡轮引擎，功率与2018款吉普牧马人一样，为270马力。另外，未来的牧马人插电混动版采用的动力总成也将提供给这款车。

 

7-seater Jeep Grand Commander surfaces via patent drawings

Jeep appears poised to release a new 7-seater crossover for the Chinese market. New patent filings show what this vehicle could look like.

 

In April Jeep previewed a 7-seater crossover called the Yuntu at the Shanghai Motor Show. While that show car was more concept-y, with suicide doors, thin lights and mirrors, and a large glass greenhouse, the latest crop of images show a much closer-to-production rendering. The illustrations were part of a patent filing reported by Chinese site AutoHome, who also says the model will be called the Grand Commander.

 

The images show a rather handsome, squared-off vehicle with a sporty stance. The front fascia is reminiscent of the Trackhawk, thanks to a low air dam, wide intakes, and a power bulge on the hood. It's overhangs appear to hamper approach and departure angles, but few will probably take the vehicle off-road. The long roof ends with a small spoiler overhanging the rear window.

 

Autoblog reports that the Grand Commander will have a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder under the hood, likely the same 270-horsepower mill in the 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The plug-in hybrid powertrain that will power an upcoming Wrangler variant could also make its way into the Grand Commander.

 

Sadly, the Grand Commander does not appear to be destined for the North American market.
