The Jeep

  • Four Jeep® vehicles customised with Jeep Performance Parts from Mopar were displayed on the brand’s SEMA Show stand in Las Vegas from October 30 to November 2

 

  • The display included unique concept vehicles that were created for the latest edition of the annual Easter Jeep Safari - Nacho Jeep, Jeep Jeepster, Jeep Sandstorm and Jeep Wagoneer Roadtrip 

 

  • The iconic Jeep Wrangler was named SEMA 4x4 / SUV of the Year for the ninth consecutive year - the only vehicle to earn this honour since the launch of the SEMA Awards in 2010

 

The Jeep® brand showcased four Jeep vehicles transformed with Jeep Performance Parts and accessories on the Mopar stand at the 2018 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show - the premier automotive specialty products trade show in the world - in Las Vegas from October 30 to November 2.

 

A dedicated display within the Mopar brand’s stand hosted some of the most significant custom-built Jeep concepts that were first revealed at the 52nd annual Easter Jeep Safari - the event for off-road enthusiasts that takes place in Moab the week before Easter - in March this year. Three of them - the Jeep Jeepster, Nacho Jeep and Jeep Sandstorm - are unique, extreme customisations of the all-new Wrangler and pay homage to the icon of the Jeep brand, while the Wagoneer Roadtrip is based on the legendary Jeep Wagoneer. 

 

The Nacho Jeep concept also sported JPP Ultimate Dana 44™ AdvanTEK® axles. These all-new axles are built strong, so hardcore Jeep Wrangler off-roaders can go where others fear to tread. High-strength features include AdvanTEK Gear technology that reduces gear set packaging with more strength and durability, improving ground clearance. JPP Ultimate Dana 44™ AdvanTEK® axles will be available in the Middle East from the end of 2018.  

 

In addition, for the ninth consecutive year, Jeep Wrangler has won SEMA’s highly coveted 4x4 / SUV of the Year award. This recognition confirms how the Jeep Wrangler continues to lead the way in the customisation world following the Mopar brand’s introduction of more than 200 exclusive Jeep Performance Parts and accessories, created to increase all-new Jeep Wrangler customisation possibilities and complement the individual lifestyles of its owners.

 

The SEMA Awards, launched in 2010, are the SEMA Show’s definitive Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) awards, shining a light on the hottest vehicles that showcase and launch aftermarket parts. Jeep Wrangler remains the only vehicle to earn the 4x4 / SUV of the Year accolade since the 2010 launch of the SEMA Awards and earned its crown in recognition as the most accessory-friendly vehicle in its class, as voted for by SEMA Show exhibitors.
