Future gladiator : Jeep pickup and the new Viper 2012
New models of the Chrysler Group were presented with some dealers
More news to emerge from the recent meeting held between Chrysler and much of its dealer network in the U.S.. According to a source who attended the meeting heard by Automotive News, the Chrysler Group unveiled a new generation entrepreneurs of the Viper as a model in 2012, and an unprecedented pickup to the Jeep brand.
Moreover, dealers were informed of plans for a 9-speed automatic transmission for vehicles with front-wheel drive to be launched after the entry of a box of 8 speeds for cars with rear-wheel drive scheduled for 2012. Both can also adapt the car-wheel-drive hybrid.
According to the source heard by the U.S. report, the conceptual design of the Viper is very similar to the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione, the Italian model who came to be offered in some stores of Maserati in the U.S.. The line Jeep, in turn, did not have a pickup from the Comanche, produced in the 1990s. In 2005, the manufacturer decided to invest in the idea with the concept in Detroit, but only for market analysis.
