46. Hill-start Assist (HSA): Assists drivers when starting a vehicle from a stop on a hill by maintaining the level of brake pressure applied for a short period of time after the driver's foot is removed from the brake pedal. If throttle is not applied within a short period of time after the driver's foot is removed from the brake pedal, brake pressure will be released

47. Keyless Enter 'n Go: When an individual enters the vehicle, electronic sensors detect if the vehicle key fob is present. The vehicle will then allow the individual to push a button to start the vehicle without having to insert the key into the ignition

48. LaneSense Departure Warning-Plus: Leverages electronic power steering (EPS) to deliver a torque input to alert and assist the driver with corrective action

49. Mopar Electronic Vehicle Tracking System (EVTS): State-of-the-art GPS-enabled stolen vehicle recovery system. EVTS includes nationwide tracking including 24/7 emergency service dispatch, security fence, arrival/departure notification, excessive speed notification and trace maps of past locations (in selected markets)

50. Occupant Restraint Controller: Detects an impact and determines whether a crash is severe enough to trigger air bag deployment and whether the primary or secondary stage inflation is sufficient. In addition, the controller detects side impacts and determines whether the rail-curtain and side seat-mounted (thorax protection) air bags should deploy. Engagement of front seat-belt pretensioners are also managed through the controller

51. ParkSense rear park assist system: The system utilizes ultrasonic sensors at low speeds in reverse to detect stationary objects.

52. ParkView rear backup camera: Provides a wide-angle view of the area immediately behind the vehicle, giving the driver greater peace of mind before reversing at low speeds.

Potevan presentarla anche da noi con 'sto marroncino! Le cose migliorano alquanto.

[MotorPassion 3,224]

Bella in Giallo ed anche in quel Marrone/Bronzo.

[Melone 611]

Bello sto colore sulla Urban! (ma a me era piaciuta pure col "besgiolino", non faccio testo )

Bello sto colore sulla Urban! (ma a me era piaciuta pure col "besgiolino", non faccio testo )

Anche a me piace nella colorazione utilizzata per la presentazione ufficiale Italiana.

su Carscoops : covering the latest news in the world of automobiles c'è una bella galleria completa di cui pubblico solo alcune immagini perchè al momento non posso pubblicarle tutte.

Guardando le prime foto mi era venuto il dubbio che quella in Marrone fosse opaca e con queste nuove foto ho la conferma quindi non mi piace più, o meglio è bella ma da mostra/salone poi nella vita reale meglio un colore dal trattamento tradizionale IMHO.

P.S. La versione CROSS per l'America sembra non avere le barre portatutto (si serie) sul tetto, cosa che invece avviene per quella EU.

Tranquillo, appena aggiunta nel primo messaggio .

Foto stampa molto più belle delle nostre, soprattutto quelle scattate al tramonto.

Il giallo le dona davvero molto bene.

[Pandino 6,821]

Davvero bello il colore della Urban

Credo (correggetemi se non è così) che col tetto in cristallo non si possano mettere le barre portatutto.

[Puntor89 737]

Questa a differenza della 500 liscia e della L non ha particolari differenze rispetto alla versione europea, o sbaglio?
