Jeep is a brand of American automobiles that is a division of FCA US LLC (formerly Chrysler Group, LLC), an entirely owned subsidiary of Fiat Chrysler Automobile. The former Chrysler Corporation acquired the Jeep brand, along with the remaining assets of its owner American Motors, in 1987. Jeep's current product range consists solely of sport utility vehicles and off-road vehicles, but has also included pickup trucks in the past.
The original Jeep was the prototype Bantam BRC. Jeeps went into production in 1941 specifically for the military, arguably making them the oldest four-wheel drive mass-production vehicles now known as SUVs. The Jeep became the primary light 4-wheel-drive vehicle of the United States Army and the Allies during World War II, as well as the postwar period. The most popular Jeeps sold today are the Grand Cherokee, Wrangler, and Cherokee.
