GMC is seemingly content material to let the sixth-generation Ford Bronco tackle the Jeep Wrangler by itself. The corporate left this section of the market many years in the past, however an Arkansas-based builder named Flat Out Autos is bringing the Jimmy again for the 2022 SEMA present.
The trendy-day Jimmy largely mirrors the Sierra 1500 that it is primarily based on from the tip of the entrance bumper to the b-pillars. Past that, Flat Out Autos added redesigned quarter panels, eliminated the partition between the cargo field and the cabin, and put in rear seats. It additionally developed a detachable, body-colored hardtop that brings the truck’s silhouette according to the second-generation Jimmy’s. Out again, the versatile MultiPro tailgate stays, and the Jimmy retains the Sierra’s rear bumper with a step built-in into every nook.
All instructed, the conversion seems surprisingly good. We wager GMC might promote a variety of these if it determined to leap again into the section. The inside is generally Sierra fare, although the entrance seats tilt ahead and carpet strains the cargo field and the inside a part of the tailgate.
Flat Out Autos hasn’t launched technical particulars, so there is no phrase on what the Jimmy is powered by. Equally, we do not know if the SUV is merely an idea designed for the SEMA present or if Flat Out Autos plans to construct it. We have requested, and we’ll replace this story if we study extra.
