Jeep can trace its roots back to WW2 as a four-wheel-drive military vehicle produced jointly by Willys-Overland and Ford Motor Company for the U.S. Army.
The first civilian Jeep was produced in the mid-1940s with new features such as a tailgate, an external fuel cap and a side-mounted spare tire, and targeted mainly toward farmers and the construction industry.
The CJ-3B and the CJ-5 had been introduced in the 1950s. The CJ-5 can be credited as having the longest production run of any Jeep vehicle, continuing for 30 years.
The company changed owners and was sold to Kaiser in 1953.
The 1960s saw the birth of the Wagoneer, which was the first four-wheel-drive vehicle equipped with an automatic transmission and in 1965 a V6 engine became available as an option on the CJ-5 and CJ-6.
merican Motors Corporation bought Kaiser-Jeep in the 1970s. The company unveiled new technology with the introduction of the world`s first automatic permanent four-wheel-drive system.
The 1980s saw the introduction of the Cherokee and Wrangler [which replaced the CJ series] that increased in popularity as the decade progressed.
In 1987 American Motors was purchased, with the Jeep brand becoming part of Chrysler`s Jeep/Eagle division.
One of Jeep`s most popular models, the Grand Cherokee, debuted for 1993. This handsome, midsize SUV offered considerably more comfort and luxury than the smaller Cherokee while still providing stout off-road capability.
Jeep fell under the umbrella of DaimlerChrysler after a merger in 1998. This partnership resulted in a few new models, such as the Liberty and Compass, with the Jeep Compass being a favourite for sale in South Africa. Current Jeep model range for sale in South Africa: Compass, Grand Cherokee SRT8, Cherokee, Patriot, Wrangler, and Wrangler Unlimited.
Jeep is now part of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
The Jeep Renegade, the smallest SUV in the brand`s line-up, gets a sharper look and three new petrol options
Its pervasiveness in suburban shopping centers may fool you into thinking the Grand Cherokee is yet another soft-roading crossover, but think again. Under the skin it`s a true Jeep: a stout, off-road capable machine. That doesn`t mean it`s a chore to drive on-road; the big Jeep`s an easygoing, high-utility companion that can be had as an unpretentious workhorse, a leather-lined luxo-ute, or something in between. Two gasoline engines and a diesel are offered, and all three drive the rear or all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic. In any guise, the Grand Cherokee offers a class-leading infotainment system, and the higher trim levels can be equipped with a host of active safety technologies including automated emergency braking.
Now we finally have word from the top brass that the Jeep truck is on its way to production reality.
