You probably wouldn’t know it, but Jeep is actually the eighth-best selling import brand in Japan. The off-road branch of the Fiat-Chrysler group is now looking to make itself even more visible in the island nation by being the first US automaker to attend the Tokyo motor show since before the world-wide credit crunch hit (2007).
The FCA stand will be graced by no fewer than eight vehicles which will be mainly from Jeep, as well as three other brands from within the group; not Chrysler, though, for some reason, even if the 200 would definitely have made a good impression…
According to Automotive News, aside from local brands and Jeep, visitors to the show will also get to see Audi, BMW, Mini, Citroen, DS, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Abarth, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, Smart, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault and Volkswagen.
The Tokyo Motor Show is set to kick off on October 29.
