Indeed, the world's strict emission policies have some impact on the traditional American large-displacement models, and in order to comply with the development of the times, they have to abandon the high-pitched self-priming engine and switch to the camp of small-displacement turbines.
In addition to the common Lincoln and Ford in getting rid of the label of large-displacement "oil tiger", Jeep, which has always been known for off-road, has finally been impatient, and there are new tricks in the name of environmental protection
Learn about new cars in one minute:
It was officially launched in March this year
An exclusive Matter Azur (sky blue) car color has been added
A large number of recyclable materials have been added to the car
The roof, carpets and seats are removed from the ocean
A light hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T engine and a 48V electric motor will be supplied
The engine can provide a maximum horsepower of 130 hp and the 48V motor can provide an additional 20 hp
Recently, the professor learned that Jeep has launched the Upland special edition model of the Free Rider and the Guider with the theme of environmental protection and sustainable development, and the special edition has added 4xe Plug-in Hybrid (plug-in hybrid version) and e-Hybrid (48V light hybrid) in addition to the conventional fuel model, which will be officially launched as soon as March this year.
Although in terms of appearance, the two special editions and the current model have not changed much, still adopt the jeep family's classic grille design, but the front grille and the rear bumper are decorated with bronze color, adapting to the aesthetics of contemporary young people.
In addition, the car paint has added an exclusive Horseter Azur (sky blue) car color, and a black dark stripe sticker has been added to the cover, making the contrasting style more youthful. The Liberty Special Edition is equipped with a 17-inch blackened wheel, and the Guider Special Edition is equipped with an 18-inch blackened wheel.

In terms of interior, the style copied the design concept of the current model, all equipped with the popular large screen, and the scientific and technological atmosphere basically cannot be faulted. It is worth mentioning that the special edition with environmental protection as the main focus has also added a large number of recyclable materials to the car, such as the roof, carpet and seats in the car, which are made of recyclable plastic taken out of the ocean. And the back of the chair is also printed with a recyclable logo LOGO.

In terms of power, the Free ranger and guide's Upland will provide a 1.5T engine and a 48V electric motor composed of a light hybrid system, in which the engine can provide a maximum horsepower of 130 hp, peak torque of 240 Nm, while the 48V motor can provide an additional 20 hp and 55 Nm, matched by a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
In addition, Jeep also took the opportunity to expand its lineup of electric SUVs in Europe, and will provide plug-in hybrids for free rangers and guides to Germany, France, the Netherlands, Scandinavia and other regions in the future, and will go on sale as soon as March.
At present, the domestic market Freeman and guiders are also using 1.3T engines, and this series of engines has also made a big compromise on environmental regulations and fuel economy. However, from the perspective of sales, the overall performance can only be called average, so in order to improve the product strength of the Free Hero and the Guide, it is likely that a 1.5T light hybrid system will also be introduced.
It is undeniable that in the face of global emission policies and electrification trends, Jeep has made certain concessions, and according to market speculation, Jeep will also integrate more new hybrid lineups into the domestic new energy market in the future. After all, at present, many users of domestic 1.3T power still feel that some confidence is insufficient.
