Jeep Grand Cherokee Sales High In June

The sales numbers for the month of June have come out and to many people’s surprise, they are still going strong for the industry. One of the best success stories to come out of the sales figures, however, is from Jeep.

According to the Associate Press the Jeep Grand Cherokee saw a great sales boost in the month. SUV’s have been under some scrutiny of late due to the high cost of gas in recent months. It’s made many in the industry wonder if dark days were ahead for the vehicles with new hybrids starting to take center stage. That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore with the Grand Cherokee having its best June sales since 2005. That’s a 38 percent increase this year.

The Grand Cherokee has always been a heavy fan favorite for the Jeep brand. Just last week, we wrote about the SUV getting a brand new variant in the form of the Jeep Grand Cherokee S Limited. There’s a reason why it’s the most awarded SUV ever and is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports.

New Jeep Grand Cherokee S Limited Announced!

Jeep has been rolling out variant models on its most popular vehicles. Just recently, they have shown off the Jeep Compass Black Edition, the Jeep Wrangler Mountain, and even a special edition made to go with the release of the Call of Duty games. Jeep is readying another new version of their car to join this roster, the Jeep Grand Cherokee S Limited.

Inautonews.com has more details about the decision. Jeep is looking to get the youth into their vehicles. The break down of the vehicle shows that it will still sport the iconic front grille with a black gloss. It will also have a rear diffuser and 20-inch alloy wheels. The inside of the new Grand Cherokee will now have a heated steering wheel, racing pedals, and will be fitted with Ventilated Nappa leather.

The engine underneath the hood is a 3.0 liter V6 turbo diesel engine. This provides the Grand Cherokee with a total output of 238 HP at 4,000 rpm and a peak torque of 406 lb-ft. The engine is also being offered with a lower output of 187 HP and 325 lb-ft of torque.

For all those Jeep enthusiasts, there always seems to be something new and exciting right around the corner.

Jeep Partners with the Boys and Girls Club of America to Offer a Dream Adventure

Jeep and the Boys and Girls Clubs of America had a question for 4 million kids. The questions was, “What would you do in this big world if you could do anything you wanted?” A tall question, one that I have plenty of answers to, and one that I’m sure anyone reading this has an immediate answer to. To the children who decided to answer the call, however, a prize package awaits them with the “Dream Adventure Contest.”

To enter, children ages 6-12 shared their illustrations of the answer, and ages 13-18 had 60 second videos that went over what their dream adventure would be. The contestants were then graded on creativity, visual impact, and if there was a compelling title. The top four winners in each of the age groups were then given the prizes that they could enjoy with family and friends.

“Like the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the Jeep brand believes it is essential to encourage today’s youth – our future leaders – to dream out loud; and that with commitment and determination there is possibility,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO of Jeep Brand. “The Jeep brand is proud of all the participants who submitted entries and we congratulate all of the grand prize winners as well as the Clubs who will enjoy the Jeep-themed events on behalf of their winner.”
