Jeep Wrangler Unlimited wins 'Off-roader of the Year' in the inaugural Car Middle East Awards 2007

Accepting the award, Trent Barcroft, Vice President, Chrysler International - Middle East Business Office, said, 'We're delighted that the Wrangler Unlimited has received such a prestigious award, particularly given the strong competition it faced. Ever since its launch earlier this year, the Wrangler Unlimited has proven to be immensely popular, and stocks are sold out almost as soon as they arrive at our showrooms across the region.'

'With the introduction of the Wrangler, Wrangler Unlimited, Patriot and Compass, Jeep now offers the most comprehensive range of SUV's available to customers anywhere in the world - we knew right away that the Wrangler Unlimited, which delivers exceptional performance both on and off-road, was something very special. This award is just the icing on the cake for us!' he added.

Jeep now gives customers the option of an SUV for every lifestyle, while every one of them stays true to the core values that have made Jeep such a legend - freedom, adventure, mastery and authenticity.

'The Jeep design and engineering teams are really at the top of their game,' said Barcroft. 'The current range is packed with vehicles that feature innovative technology, creative design and total functionality, all of which combine in Jeep's 'go anywhere, do anything' attitude - there are many more great Jeep vehicles in the pipeline, and the all-new Jeep Cherokee will join the range in the first quarter of 2008.'
