Jeep® – one of the world’s few, true icons – is celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2016. And to mark the occasion, the Jeep brand has rolled out distinctive, unique 75th Anniversary Edition models – Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Renegade and Wrangler.
These limited edition models, which were recently launched in South Africa and are available at Jeep dealerships nationwide, pay homage to the history of the legendary Jeep brand. In addition, Jeep has rolled out plans for 75 days of celebrations and special offers at Jeep dealerships until 20 October, 2016.
The Jeep brand’s legendary heritage and capability have made it iconic – well-known and loved throughout the world. Since they were first produced in 1941, Jeep vehicles have been the authentic benchmark for off-road capability, having mastered more terrain, led more adventures and provided drivers more freedom than any other vehicle before or since.
The Grand Cherokee 75th Anniversary model is based on the Grand Cherokee Limited and includes an updated front fascia and grille design, 20” bronze alloy wheels, deep tinted glass, updated headlight design, LED fog lights, a dual pane panoramic sunroof as well as luxury leather trim on the door panels and armrests.

The Jeep Renegade range features a 75th Anniversary model based on the Limited with the addition of bronze badging, fascia and grille, body colour mirrors and door handles, rear tow hook, 18” bronze alloy wheels, navigation system and My Sky roof.
The 75th Anniversary Wrangler Unlimited is based on the Sahara and features Rock Rail tubular steel side steps, unique 17” bronze alloy wheels and navigation.
