Forget head-scratching model names like  Tiguan and Touareg. For its new midsize SUV, Volkswagen scrapped its naming-by-German-committee tradition and turned the process over to its American division.

When the new model goes on sale next year, expect a rugged, easy-to-pronounce name designed solely for the U.S. market, Automotive News reports. That name could be “Teramont.”

Volkswagen isn’t saying what the name is. Hinrich Woebcken, CEO of Volkswagen’s North American Region, claims it might not even begin with a “T.” The model will carry a “bullish, much easier to pronounce, American-style name,” Woebcken told Automotive News.

A Chattanooga-built three-row crossover is a big part of the company’s plan to reverse falling sales. Diesels and semi-premium posturing is out, and money-making crossovers are in.

The creation of the North American Region earlier this year means more autonomy for Volkswagen’s domestic operations. When the scandal broke, the company was criticized for being too top-heavy and bureaucratic.

“Two or three years ago, it would’ve been a no-go that the region decides an individual name,” Woebcken said. “This is already an early sign that Wolfsburg is willing to let go.”

A trademark filing from early December shows that Volkswagen added the Teramont name to its stable. The name was registered internationally on June 2. The trademark filing predates the creation of the North American Region, but the moniker could already have been on file as a suggestion. If Teramont isn’t the crossover’s U.S. name, it could still show up on overseas models.
