Jeep Blazes A Trail

In case you missed the recent Chrysler Press Release and concept Jeep.... Here you go.

Chrysler has shared two concepts that will be unveiled at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2007 — a luxury coupe and a new Jeep.

The Chrysler Nassau concept is a four-door, four-passenger luxury coupe "with an emphasis on driving dynamics". With sweeping curves to define the front and rear fasciae, the exterior design explores the look of what could be a future sedan in the brand's line-up.

The Jeep Trailhawk concept, meanwhile, merges the spectrum of the Jeep brand by combining the core features of the Jeep Wrangler with the sophistication of the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Derived from the all-new 2007 Wrangler architecture, the Jeep Trailhawk concept taps into "Jeep Rugged" attributes to provide classic proportions, expected off-road capability and a new approach to open-air freedom.

The headlamps, cropped and peering out from beneath a diagonal brow, are intended to produce the look of a bird of prey, and the inspiration for the "Trailhawk" name.
