Jeep Rally Hatchback?

[REDLYNER]

Hmmmm........

When we think about Jeeps, we think about the Rubicon Trail, and all that the Trail Rated badge stands for. Naturally, a four-wheel-drive hatchback wouldn’t be able to conquer Rubicon, but it would be able to conquer any rally stage on the planet.
With a low center of gravity and the aforementioned four-wheel-drive system, this little Jeep could make a run in the GRC, WRC, or any off-road racing series.


Keeping many cues from its Punto cousin, the Jeep hatchback would feature a signature grille, five-spoke wheels, and enough illumination light up the side of a mountain during those late night rally events.

Body lines are fugly

Idea is solid

 

[catfishblues]

No. Wait, let me think about it...



...no.

The "signature grill" looks like an afterthought. Like after a fifth of Jager, a couple of dudes had a thought that they needed to incorporate something vaguely Jeeplike onto the car. "Let's stick a 7-bar grill on it! That'd be badass!"


No.

Whenever I see the word punto it makes me laugh. When we were in high school we used to call each other punto because we got yelled at for calling each other pussy so we just figured it was an appropriate code word.

So if I ever call you punto gordo, you should feel insulted.

But yeah, that thing should just be a cool little Dodge.

I think its a cool looking car, not sure it needs to be a jeep. But I understand them branching out. Everything can't be a wrangler. But I have a soft spot for a hatch, especially an awd one.

 

[RatLabGuy]

For rally, wouldn't you want AWD instead of 4wd?

Can't be any worse than the Compass.

Actually it's Puto and Puta as the derogatory terms. Puto meaning fag or homo and Puta meaning bitch. You are correct as punto meaning point.
