DETAILS have been released of the new facelifted Chrysler Neon which will be launched towards the summer, with a revised engine line-up, introducing a 1.6-litre entry-level model, with 1.8 and 2.0-litre variants and a planned turbodiesel. It has an all-new body, new grille, improved interior space and higher quality materials.

In spring the new Jeep Grand Cherokee will go on sale, offered in 4.7-litre V8 format, current 4.0-litre and 3.1-litre turbodiesel offering 138bhp. A top-of-the-range Orvis is planned, but there are no details on whether this will come to the UK, so the current Orvis is unaffected.
