Seems the Grand Commander new 3 row Jeep Leaked out in China and Jalopnik has a story on it. Seems to have the same engines that the Cherokee and Wrangler has. https://jalopnik.com/heres-chinas-new-seven-seat-jeep-grand-commander-before-1822112915

Why? I just do not get saving something like this.

Guess MB lost their we have a 48 volt hybrid system with the way Ram rolled it out. Interesting as some reporters are going after hidden easter eggs. Jalopnik has a great story on all the cool stuff they found in the new Ram. https://jalopnik.com/here-are-the-2019-ram-1500s-easter-eggs-1822099947 Makes me want to go crawl all over the new rides to check out what cool easter eggs are hidden where.

Thanks Drew, Misread that. OK, then that should last.

My thinking is that you can have a mini pickup truck that can hold 3 adults in base cabe config plus another 500 to 1000 lbs in the bed. I think with EV mini pickup truck you could easily have AWD of a performance monster with up to 1000 lbs payload capacity in the bed and have a quiet sleeper Syclone pickup. Yup loved the GMC Syclone pickup, just think the fun that would be for hauling around 5 kegs in the bed! Yes, it is amazing to see in Seattle how many people still have mini pickups as they do not need mid or full size trucks even with owning a house and the tight parking on streets, etc. Inner City living I still believe people want a truck for various chores without all the size and bulk. First Auto OEM to build a 200 mile range EV Mini Pickup will catch considerable market share.

I like this updated look and it looks good in Silver. Should continue to do well for them. Interior is solid and nice looking too. My only concern is the Turbo Engine with the Hollow spindle. That I can see failing sooner rather than later due to the extreme heat from the turbo system.

Clarification grasshopper, in the mid size truck class, to me V6 is a requirement and should be there. In the Mini Truck class, 4 bangers only with and without turbo is fine. When you look at the mini trucks of the late 70's and 80's the Chevy Luv, Ford Ranger, S10, etc. they all did the job they were needed for which for many people was going to Home Depot type stores, small jobs. I still believe a mini truck market can exist and even be a EV truck that handles 500 to a max 1000lbs.

Love this new Bike Concept, very cool!

WTF, Toyota, have you ever done some REAL market research? What is up with the big mouth billy bass plastic front end? This is the ugliest I have ever seen an auto.

As if they are stuck in 1970's with mechanical crap like that.

See, it is so bland that you cannot tell where it is made! I love a global economy, but have some passion and germanness to your products VW. Do NOT water them down to be so BLAH!

OK, is this a German made car or Asian made? Not really sure as you could cover the VW badge and I think it would just fade into the overkill crop of 4 door based coupes. Interior I have to say is one of the nicest I have seen in a long time from VW and really like the layout of the dash, not too simple but not overkill busy and too much like some asian brands. Agree with Cubicle that those seats look like preformed floor mats and I wonder about the comfort level

We'll based on thinking this over, I am having to go with a tie if everything being equal, money to pay for the project along with time to focus on the project. Based on what I see, I think balthazar is ahead so far. Yes his brothers is easier for numerous reasons but balthazar has stated what is done already and I think has a bit more drive to get this completed based on the two photos.

Nice evolution of the car. I like the N version and glad they have it. Interesting to see how well it sells in this day of CUV madness.

While I like the Exterior, I agree with you on the inside and we will never see that in a production auto. My thought was the inside was a quick we are gonna miss having it at the show, so do something quick. Exterior is a nice take on their older design style I thought.
-
Nice looking as far as coupe based CUVs go with a bulbous nose on the front. Much better grill than in the past. Better and should sell well for them. Interior is nice, love the HUD system. Dash is ok, but center stack design is a bit weird to me and reminds me of things best left unsaid. At least the buttons are clear for use under the LCD screen, but with all the nice attributes like Leather and wood, that dash LCD screen comes across to me as a cheap afterthought along with that weird center stack.

I really like the looks of this Nissan Concept. Very tough looking, SUV. I hope it gets mostly to production as is.
-
Yup, His is a 17 and I see the difference in shifters. Cadillac XT5 shifter looks more like his but seems to me to have that move it and always come back to center position mode.
-
I honestly am not really sure how I feel about this auto, the front has me just blank with what I feel other than the hood looks like it is trying to fold space! Interior white is just a head shaker for me. Why give an interior that will show every bit of dirt, marks, etc. It is best looking only at the initial build, humans are too lazy to properly keep it clean and nice looking.

GM has used that shifter for a while too, I like it in my sons jeep.
