In January, Jeep unveiled its first-ever electrified models for European market, the Renegade 4xe and Compass 4xe plug-in hybrids.
A dedicated web platform giving early-bird customers in selected European markets the first chance to pre-order the exclusive Jeep Renegade 4xe and Compass 4xe First Edition – until 30th April, has proved a resounding success.
Now, the wait is over and the Jeep brand has given the green light for full orders to be made.
To deal with the current difficult situation, Jeep showrooms are opening up to potential customers via the Google Hangouts Meet app, to continue doing business remotely. Without leaving the house, customers can discover the new models in the line-up, chat to a sales consultant and go ahead with the order of their vehicle. Italy is the first market to use this ‘remote’ contact technology, which will be extended to other countries.
Everything is now ready for the imminent arrival of these launch editions, heralding a new era for the American brand.
To celebrate, Jeep has paid tribute to the technicians and engineers who have made this possible, with an evocative video shot as the new models completed an epic 3,800-kilometer road test, from the Mirafiori plant in Turin to the Proving Ground in Arjeplog, Swedish Lapland.
Over the course of one thrilling week, the first Jeep plug-in hybrid electric models in the EMEA region were put through their paces in real-world scenarios that customers themselves could encounter as the vehicles’ advanced plug-in hybrid systems were tested to their limits.
To find out more, just watch the video, a fitting tribute to the daily commitment of the technicians and engineers who run tests, checks, validations and fatigue testing in very different scenarios every day.
Like all Jeep SUVs, the new Renegade 4xe and Compass 4xe have been subjected to a wide range of complex processes, to guarantee quality, safety, reliability and comfort in all conditions
