Jeep® models have once again dominated the prestigious Readers’ Choice Awards of specialist German #4x4 magazine #offroad

The brand took five top honours in the awards after the title’s knowledgeable readers were asked to pick the very best #4x4 vehicles and SUVs of the market from a massive field of 248 models across 13 categories.

The big winner was the #jeep Renegade which was crowned ‘Best Compact SUV’ (D category) for an incredible sixth consecutive year.Beating 19 other models to retain the title, the Renegade was praised for its class-leading #4x4 capability combined with unmistakable #jeep design. 

The flagship #jeep Grand Cherokee meanwhile, was named the best imported luxury off-roader and was second overall in the ‘Luxury Off-Roader’ (B Category). 

Not to be outdone, the iconic #jeep Wrangler, achieved second place in the ‘Off-Roader’ A category, taking  28.4 percent of the expert readers' votes  –  only 0.6 percent less than the winner and well ahead of the third-placed model (15.1 percent).

Jeep Wrangler also took second place in the ‘Alternative Drives’ category  –  a particularly important recognition ahead of the launch of the  Wrangler 4xe model with plug-in hybrid technology. 

Also well in advance of its European market debut, the all-new #jeep Gladiator took the second place in the ‘Pick-up’ C category. 

The #offroad Awards were started in 1982, giving enthusiastic readers of the specialist #4x4 magazine the chance to vote for their favourite models. Over 41,500 readers took part in the 2020 edition of the #offroad polls (results will be in the print version of the #offroad magazine, issue 8/20 at kiosk from July 14th, 2020)
