MILITEM chooses ALCANTARA®
MILITEM FERŌX chooses Alcantara®: the SUV with a ‘rockstar’ soul that combines Italian luxury and American technology.
MILITEM FERŌX is an off-roader that is an evolution of the Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited luxury 4×4. Behind this new concept is Italian automotive brand MILITEM, a manufacturer of premium luxury offroaders that blends Italian elegance and design with American technology and power. Characterized by the utmost attention to detail, clients can choose from a complete range of fittings with an array of colors and finishes on offer. Included is exquisite Alcantara® for the cabin, finished with contrasting stitching and bearing all the hallmarks of Italian craftsmanship.
FERŌX boasts a bodyshape that gives the Wrangler a more ‘rock and roll’ look. The original’s round headlights with LED lights remains but the inner bumper and wheel arches have been redesigned. New, wider, body-colored fenders (in carbon-fiber on request), five-spoke alloy wheels customized with the FERŌX star, body-colored bumpers and handles and automated electric footrests complete the new look.
The cabin has been created with extreme care and attention to detail by master craftsmen. The team is able to produce sophisticated on-board environments according to the owner’s tastes and requirements. Alcantara® guarantees comfort and luxury for the passenger compartment without sacrificing sportiness. The versatility and strength of Alcantara means that it can be used to upholster the seats, dashboard, center console and door panels with a wide range of colors. Contrasting stitching and embroidery round off the cabin.
FERŌX, thanks to its redesigned structure optimized by MILITEM, offers an extremely rewarding and versatile ride both as an urban SUV and as a more extreme off-roader. It is available with two petrol engines, 2L with 272 bhp and 400 Nm of torque or a 3.6L V6 with 285 bhp and 360 Nm. Both are equipped with an 8-speed gearbox and all-wheel drive automatic transmission. The MILITEM range also includes the HERO models, based on the Jeep Renegade offroader, and the MAGNUM pick-up truck, based on the RAM model. These are also available with Alcantara interiors.
The partnership between Alcantara® and MILITEM is one that brings together a common enthusiasm and passion for the product, the values of exclusivity, tailor-made luxury and attention to detail.
