Juventus jumps on board the Jeep® Grand Cherokee 4xe

At the Allianz Stadium in Turin, with Eric Laforge, Head of the Jeep_® Brand Enlarged Europe, and Novella Varzi, Country Manager of the Jeep_® brand in Italy the fleet of Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe for Juventus players and staff was delivered.

“Jeep and Juventus are a perfect match, combining an iconic brand like Jeep and a legendary team like Juventus. A match-up of successes that fully embodies the values of the Jeep brand: Freedom, Adventure, Authenticity and Passion. I’m proud to be able to deliver to the Juventus players the new Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe to the Juventus players, an iconic model that stands out in the category of “big SUVs” as the epitome of refinement and technology, combined with a perfect balance between on-road dynamics and off-road capabilities. And with the introduction of the 4xe, our exclusive version of 4x4 electrification, the new Grand Cherokee enhances legendary off-road capabilities and Jeep’s unique DNA” said Eric Laforge.

The partnership between Jeep and Juventus is a ten-year success story, begun in the 2012-2013 season with similar values in mind. It led to taking 18 titles between the League, the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana, and has enabled to write unforgettable chapters in the history of Italian football. After all, when considering Jeep and Juventus, we can only but think of their hallmark glorious history, increasing their appeal all round the world.

The Jeep_® logo on the kit states the case for the journey of electrification
In recent seasons, the iconic black and white kit has stated the case for the electrification of the Jeep brand: first with the initials “4xe”, the new 4x4 in the Jeep way, followed by the black lettering adorned with a lightning pattern, to emphasize Jeep’s evolution towards sustainable mobility.
Jeep is speeding up this process: the launch of the Renegade and Compass 4xe in 2020 was followed by the Wrangler 4xe in June 2021. Today, the Avenger – “Car of the Year” 2023 – is the first 100% electric SUV, and the Grand Cherokee 4xe also completes the electrified range for the Jeep flagship, the first model to bring the idea of “Premium 4x4” on to the road over 30 years ago, as well as having received more awards than any SUV ever.
