Jeep history and evolution
The Jeep was born in WWII when the US Army needed an all-purpose vehicle that could handle challenging terrain and weather conditions. The first civilian Jeep, the Jeep CJ-2AT, debuted in 1945 and was marketed to farmers. Over the next eight decades, as demand for off-road vehicles grew, the company produced a number of iconic cars. The Jeep Wagoneer debuted in 1962. Considered revolutionary at the time, this family-sized car offered a combination of passenger comforts and off-road capability. Plus, it was the first 4x4 vehicle to offer an automatic transmission. 1962 also saw the debut of the Jeep Gladiator, a line of full-size pickup trucks. In 1984, the Jeep Cherokee XJ launched, considered by many to be the first SUV.
