JEEP SA LAUNCH

passengers to enter or exit the vehicle.
The Summit Reserve adds to this with
Quadra-Drive and an electronic Limited
Slip Diff as well.
For the SA market, Jeep has ensured
that the models are packed with technology
and luxury spec – such as selective modes
for every condition or terrain, quality
Macintosh sound system on top models
and an extra screen for the front seat
passenger that can show many functions
or even movies! Another feature on the
Overland and above is the ‘kiddie camera’
allowing you to watch the rear seats on the
infotainment screen – perfect for when you
have little ones in the back.
The top Summit Reserve adds items
like Nappa leather, individual Captain’s
Chairs in the middle row and pedestrian
or animal detection technology that works
even in the dark.
Considering the specification levels,
space and all-round abilities, pricing is highly
competitive too. Starting at R1 299 900 for
the ‘base’ limited version, the Overland as
tested is R1 479 900, and the super-luxury
Summit Reserve is priced at R1 679 900. A
5-year/100 000km maintenance plan and
warranty are included. n
