The Hybrid Jeep Yunti Concept is Set to Debut at the Shanghai Auto Show
Michael Hines — April 16, 2017 — Autos
The Jeep Yunti is one of the many concept cars set to take the stage at the upcoming 2017 Shanghai Auto Show. The American automaker released a few sketches of its new two-door SUV before its official debut, and they show a futuristic hybrid that looks refined yet rugged.
Chinese car buyers love American automakers, and the country has a surprisingly big appetite for SUVs and crossovers. The fact that the Jeep Yunti is a hybrid will endear it even further to consumers as cars with larger engines (aka bigger polluters) cost more. A hybrid SUV may be a harder sell in the United States, so don't be shocked if the Jeep Yunti becomes a China-only model.
