Whatsoever, it seems like that SUV will get another chance as the 2019 Fiat Freemont. The company will try again to combine the spaciousness and functionality of the seven-seater with the driving characteristics of compact SUV. Freemont will borrow some details from the Journey, but it will also get a unique cabin with plenty of hi-tech features.

The 2019 Fiat Freemont is equipped with an electronic system that uses the sensor to determine the adhesion of each wheel. It can also, if necessary, automatically include the rear axle drive.

The 2019 Freemont will present the ideal mixture of comfort, functionality, and versatility. Caring for details, such as the use of soft-touch materials and special chromates, it will provide an authentic and sophisticated personal seal.

But, with help of the sister company, the SUV could make it on the biggest automotive stage. But, this is not official yet. However, the vehicle needs a good ad to reach more fans and buyers. The appearance in North America will definitely help it even in Europe and South America. We will know more in the last quarter of 2018.
