IT'S CONFIRMED: Jeep Wrangler Pickup Truck Coming in 2017The next-generation 2017 Wrangler will finally, finally include a pickup truck variant, Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne confirms.
Jeep fans have been clamoring for a Wrangler-based pickup truck for what seems like decades now. For all those years, Jeep teased us with pickup truck concepts, like the Gladiator concept and the J-12 concept shown above, but never pulled the trigger on a production model. That all changes for 2017: The next-gen Wrangler will finally, finally offer a pickup variant, right from the factory.
That's the word from The Detroit News, as per a conversation with Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne. The CEO also confirmed that both the standard Wrangler and the pickup truck will be built in the Toledo, Ohio facility where the current Wrangler is assembled.
Jeep global chief Mike Manley told The Detroit News that the Wrangler pickup will arrive in late 2017. "Sergio and I work very, very closely on the Jeep product portfolio, and both of us have been a fan of a potential Wrangler pickup," he said. "For me, there is a historical place in our lineup for it."
I asked our salesman, Ryan William, to write 3 features about the New 2017 Jeep Compass. The 2017 Jeep "NEW" Compass is a great redesign by FCA. Besides the new exterior design, the interior is luxurious and high tech! As always with the Jeep brand, customers get the best off road capability. Check out the newest CUV in the Jeep lineup, but first lets examine the details a little closer. 1. The exterior design of the NEW Compass mirrors its big brother, Grand Cherokee. The front fascia and headlight design are very similar and aggressive. Several wheel choices throughout the trim levels give the customer options on their favorite look. Optional panoramic sunroof also gives the NEW Compass a richer feel and appearance. 2. Interior features have been redesigned to become current with high end SUV's on the market. High end trim and technology to meet the needs of current buyers. Bluetooth and connectivity are right at your fingertips in the NEW Compass. Touch screen radio and steering wheel mounted controls make it easy to operate. 3. As always with Jeep you get outstanding off road capability. The Optional Active Drive 4X4 system makes the NEW Compass capable on or off the road in all weather conditions, and the Select Terrain Management system allows the driver to select the drive condition to maximize the Compass drivability.
