Little history fact: American-made Jeep SUVS, are from the lineage of the Willys-Overland company that evolved into present day Jeep. The Willys-Overland company was known for their quality craftsmanship, and in 2003, Jeep reintroduced the name to describe the upscale version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Jump to present day and the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Edition is incredible. It’s the epitome of luxury performance.
This Jeep obviously delivers off-road, but the interior is where that Willys-Overland really comes to life, from the leather seats and dash, to the walnut inlaid steering wheel and dash panels, to the four-wheel disc brakes visible behind 20-inch alloy rims. Unlike the first Jeeps made by Overland, this limited edition comes loaded with GPS, USB ports, and Bluetooth. Of course there is an automatic start to bring the 360-hp 5.7-liter V-8 Hemi under the hood of the Overland Edition to life.
One satisfied test-driver commented, “When it comes to design and fit-and-finish, this Jeep really goes beyond the typical. The leather! The sunroof! The walnut inlays! (And did I mention the leather?)…”
The Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Edition is the perfect example of how Jeep has sustained their commitment to quality for over a century. If you’re interested in the Jeep Cherokee used, Bloomington dealer, Sam Leman will be more than glad to set you up.
