Last year was good to Jeep. Chrysler
has announced its trail-rated brand set an all-time global sales record
in 2012 by moving 701,626 units. That number easily surpasses the
previous record set in 1999 when Jeep sold 675,494 models. All told, the
brand saw a 19-percent sales increase worldwide over 2011, and much of
that swell can be traced directly to the Wrangler. While the Grand Cherokee
led Jeep sales, the Wrangler posted record numbers both globally and
within the US, moving 194,142 and 141,669 units in each market,
respectively.
