Two Jeep show cars unveiled in Frankfurt

For this year's Frankfurt International Motor Show, Jeep has created the unique Wrangler Rubicon Sunriser and Cherokee KrawLer. They're termed 'show cars', but it's easy to envisage both becoming limited editions.

The eye-catching Wrangler Rubicon Sunriser features matte orange paint plus a host of Mopar off-road accessories.

As well as a skid plate for the 2.8 litre diesel engine, the specification includes a 4” suspension lift kit, beadlock wheels and special bumpers. Among the cosmetic modifications are cut-down doors, LED rear light clusters and some extra LED spotlights mounted by the windscreen pillars.

Likewise, the matte green Cherokee KrawLer is designed for extreme all-terrain use. Based on the existing Trailhawk variant, power is provided by a 3.2 litre Pentastar V6 petrol motor that's linked to a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
