Jeep® History in the 2010s

2010–2019

The Jeep® Brand resonated with consumers around the world as global sales increased to their highest point in its over 75-year history with 1.41 million units sold worldwide for 2016. Strategic launches of the All-New Grand Cherokee, Renegade, Compass and the legendary Wrangler all contributed greatly to the Brand’s success.

The 2015 Jeep Renegade (BU) and all-new 2017 Jeep Compass (MP) offered fresh additions to the lineup, mixing contemporary style with unmistakable Jeep Brand design. And the 2019 Jeep Wrangler (JL) was refined to add even more comfort and convenience than its predecessor.
