Jeep Brand

Jeep has seven models in the 2007 model year, the most available to retail consumers at one time in the 65-year history of the brand.

The expansion of the Jeep brand has taken place in just two years. At the start of 2004, the brand's trio of tough, capable, rugged SUVs included the venerable Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Liberty (Cherokee outside North America) and the icon of the brand, the Jeep Wrangler.

In 2005, the Jeep Commander was introduced. This year, the redesigned Jeep Wrangler was unveiled. Also debuting this year are three all-new Jeep vehicles: Jeep Patriot, Jeep Compass and the four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.

Sales of Jeep brand vehicles in Canada increased 10.9 percent in 2005 to 28,303 units compared with 2004 sales of 25,521 units. The positive sales momentum for the brand has continued in 2006. Through April, Jeep brand sales in 2006 are 8,189, a 7 percent increase over the same period in 2005.
