Why is a jeep called a jeep?

A question that people often ask is: How did the name Jeep come from? Many people think that the origin of the name Jeep can be traced back to the cartoon image of 19 in the 1930s. That is a rather naughty slender animal named Eugene Jeep. Eugénie Jeep likes to run around. It is resourceful, brave and fearless, good at dealing with all kinds of unexpected dangers, and often saves the day-just like a jeep.

Others say that the pronunciation of "Jeep" is birdsong, which is the result of the continuous pronunciation of two English words "GP", the name of a quarter-ton American reconnaissance vehicle.

1On June 27th, 940, an unusual thing happened in the history of automobiles: the American government invited 135 automobile factories to participate in the competition, and designed and produced a flexible and sturdy all-wheel drive military vehicle. The driving force of this car is three times that of similar cars at that time, and the speed is 65 miles per hour.

The name of this kind of car is GP, which is a common abbreviation. Its pronunciation is very similar to the "Jeep Jeep" cry of a magical bird in the cartoon image created by American cartoonist Scott in 1937. Therefore, American soldiers call this small off-road vehicle "Jeep".

1In June, 944, Jeep crossed the Atlantic with American soldiers to participate in World War II. When the allied forces landed in Normandy, the commanders all took jeeps, which also made jeeps famous.

According to another legend, as early as 1934, people called an oil drilling truck with special equipment "Jeep". Where Jeep's name came from is still a topic of public debate. However, there is no doubt about one thing: despite many changes in the company and market, the Jeep trademark has existed for decades. Its trademark rights and global recognition are enough to prove this. The following is the history, inheritance, cars and trademarks of Jeep in the past decades.
