Jeep
Jeep, a term often used generically to refer to all-terrain vehicles, is an American automotive manufacturing division of Stellantis (formerly Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA). However, the marque has previously been under the ownership of several companies and affiliates since its founding (including Kaiser Motors and the American Motors Corporation (AMC)). The current Jeep vehicle catalog consists of SUVs (primarily with an off-road focus) and a pickup truck, with the brand also exploring plug-in hybrid and electrification model plans.
The history of Jeep starts with the Willys MB, a U.S. World War II military/army truck nicknamed “Jeep”. After the war, Jeep CJ models (Civilian Jeeps) were built for markets worldwide starting in 1945 and began inspiring other automakers, most notably the Land Rover marque. From this success, different Jeep builds were produced and experimented with, such as the Jeepster phaeton and the Forward Control truck in the 40s and 50s. The modern Jeeps most are familiar with today started appearing in the 1960s, such as the Cherokee and Wagoneer models, followed by the original Gladiator and Wrangler over the next couple of decades.
