Etymology

The term 'Jeep' is believed to have originated from the phonetic spelling of the letters 'G.P.' for 'General Purpose' vehicle during World War II. It was used by the U.S. Army to refer to the versatile, all-terrain vehicles produced by various manufacturers, including Willys-Overland and Ford. The name 'Jeep' became synonymous with off-road vehicles as these durable and capable machines saw widespread use in military operations. After the war, the Jeep became a civilian vehicle, appealing to outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking adventure. Over the decades, the Jeep brand evolved, with new models and variations being introduced, cementing its status as an iconic automobile in both military and civilian spheres.
