Throughout the SUV boom, Jeep stayed fairly true to its product line. Bent on expanding the Jeep brand, Jeep has recently added a 7 passenger SUV, the Commander to its lineup. This year the Jeep brand adds 2 new entry-level vehicles. Based on the same platform, the Jeep Patriot and Jeep Compass have very different executions. The Compass is a wagon-like vehicle intended for more on-road duty like the Dodge Caliber. The Patriot with its more traditional styling will add a more rugged version that will be "trail-rated". The definitive Jeep Wrangler is all-new for 2007 and features some shocking new features as well. A V6 engine becomes standard, replacing the 4-cylinder and inline-6 cylinder engines of its predecessors. The Unlimited model now sports 4 doors and and 5-passenger seating. A removable hardtop helps place the new Unlimited model in competition with other similar vehicles like the Xterra and FJ Cruiser.
