吉普将向包括巴西和印度在内新兴市场推出定位在Renegade之下的新款入门级车型。吉普高管表示,在新兴市场,Renegade的价格仍太高,因此仍有足够的空间开发一款定位在其之下的车型。虽然这位高管不愿透露细节,但表示,这款车将基于菲亚特熊猫或巴西车型平台。因为巴西有一些非常好的低成本平台。这款车虽然属于入门级车型,但仍将是一款真正的吉普车,而且未来还将进入发达国家市场。
Jeep considering an entry-level model to slot below the Renegade
According to a recent report, Jeep is considering a new entry-level model for emerging markets such as India and Brazil.
Speaking to Motoring, Jeep's Adrian Van Campenhout said the Renegade is "ungodly expensive" in many emerging markets so there's room for a model to slot underneath it.
He declined to go into specifics but hinted the crossover could be based on either the Fiat Panda or a Brazilian platform. As he explained, "We have some really good folks down in Brazil that do some fantastic low-cost platforms."
There's no word on when the model could arrive but Van Campenhout said it would be a true Jeep and could eventually be offered in developed countries.
