Today during a press-only viewing prior to the Los Angeles Auto Show, Jeep announced two new trim levels that will be added as range-toppers for the Liberty and Grand Cherokee.
The two new trim levels are unique in the Jeep family, and neither have been applied to any other models. The Jeep Liberty Jet is an appearance package that can be added to either the Liberty Sport or Limited models, while the Overland Summit trim level is a stand alone level.
“While core Jeep enthusiasts will certainly love these vehicles, the new Grand Cherokee Overland Summit and Liberty Jet models are in direct response to consumers in the premium end of the spectrum asking us for our unique, benchmark capability in stunning, luxurious packages,” said Mike Manley, president and CEO – Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “These new vehicles deliver the premium attributes that a growing portion of our customers are asking for, and at the same time, are certain to draw new customers into Jeep showrooms.”
