The Chrysler Group will be revealing several new concepts at the Detroit Auto Show in January, and it was kind enough to release a couple of renderings of two of these concepts just to get the blood stirring. The first is the Jeep Trailhawk. Touted as a Wrangler merged with a Grand Cherokee, the concept will feature the ruggedness of the military-bred vehicle but with comfort of the popular SUV. The Trailhawk name comes from the cropped headlamps, which resemble the eyes of a bird of prey.
Chrysler will display a new full-size sedan concept in the form of the Nassau saloon. The car will be positioned as a high-end luxury sedan and adopts the four-door coupe styling made famous by the Mercedes CLS. Full of sweeping curves and toned down accessories, the Nassau shows a completely different design trend than the previous Imperial concept and alludes to a possible future sedan in the brand’s lineup.
