As another embargo bites the dust prematurely, this time brought down by Autoweek the February issue of Motor Trend from what we can tell, we are introduced ahead of schedule to the Jeep Trailhawk Concept. The Trailhawk’s a beefy Jeep in the Trail Rated tradition, but its extra-long 116-inch wheelbase means it should glide along the highway like a luxury car, coddling its four passengers along the way. Giant carved-out fender flares give shelter to massive 22-inch, five-spoke wheels, which in turn are rotated by a 3.0L BLUETEC diesel developing 215 hp and 376 ft-lbs. of torque. The style is chunky and chiseled, with a pair of angry-eye HID headlights flanking that traditional seven-bar grille. Hmmm… it’s kind of hard to remember the Grand Cherokee even exists when staring at the Trailhawk.
We’ve included the complete release after the jump along with some more of our own insight. Also don’t forget to check out our big gallery of 19 high-resolution images that are perfect for your PC’s desktop.
