Jeep Auto Show Coverage

Jeep is the off-road brand of Chrysler Group LLC, which emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2009. The heritage of Jeep begins with an off-road vehicle designed and built by the Willys-Overland company for the US military during World War II. Willys-Overland evolved into the Jeep marque, which has been owned by several automakers and expanded its lineup to include SUVs, CUVs and even performance models. Jeeps are known for being "Trail Rated" and their iconic grilles with seven vertical slots.

New York: 2014 Jeep Cherokee dreams of Moab, crawls on stage [w/video] 1364416080

The all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee inched its way onto the stage at the New York Auto Show today, proving that at least the "Trail Rated" version of the SUV is more than just a controversial unique odd fresh face in the mid-size segment. After the short, simulated Moab run by the Trailhawk model, the gray four-door was joined on the stage by a burgundy ...

Official: 2014 Jeep Cherokee flaunts its new contemporary curves 1364356860

Only slightly more than one month ago, undisguised (and less-than-flattering) shots of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee were leaked online. Later that day, in an effort to suppress the uprising, Jeep countered with its own official photography offering us much clearer front and three-quarter views. We've been left to digest those pictures for ...

Report: Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models 1358377080

Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime – certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing. It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And ...

Spy Shots: Jeep Liberty replacement takes shape 1358374500

Now that the Liberty has left us for greener pastures, it's time to start looking into the future of the midsize Jeep model. The next all-new vehicle for the off-road brand will be the SUV you see here, effectively replacing the Liberty, and not necessarily carrying on with that name. From the sides, the prototype you see here sort of looks like a ...

Detroit: 2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic 1358287620

Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks ...

Detroit: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel and SRT climb onto stage 1358183100

This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that. For starters, the 2014 Grand Cherokee marks the return of a diesel ...

Deep Dive: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power 1358139720

Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms – and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings – ...

Los Angeles: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 10th Anniversary Edition is a trail-eating off-road beast 1354132680

Difficult as it may be, the reality of the matter is that there are a lot of vehicles in the United States that can make it through the daunting stretch of dirt, rocks and elevation changes that is the Rubicon Trail. That said, there isn't a single production vehicle available today that can navigate the off-road playground with as much aplomb as the Jeep ...
