I sure hope a that a potential new Jeep Scrambler looks nothing like this rendering that AllPar had done but, maybe I'm a minority on this one. What do you think of it?
Could this be the new Jeep Scrambler?
Allpar renderer JackRatchett took the liberty of experimenting with the Renegade style to create this new Jeep Scrambler, which could help use capacity and Fiat’s Italian factory while providing a moderately off-road-capable small pickup for worldwide sale.
The small pickup retains the Renegade styling, while adding the new Chrysler-patented dual tailgate; it would provide an alternative to the Fiat Strada pickup, a version of which is due to arrive in Mexico soon as a Ram 750.
There have been no rumors or insider information indicating that such a vehicle was under consideration, much less under active development, but it could be a handy addition to the product line in Brazil, India, Mexico, and other regions where small pickups are relatively popular.
While a Jeep Wrangler-based Scrambler is rumored to be coming around 2019, that is a long time for some buyers to wait. The original Scrambler was not a big seller, but in those days, no Jeep was.
