The Cherokee’s conquest of the SUV segment continued last month
Throughout 2018, Jeep has proven itself to be the sales juggernaut of the automotive world. Where many automakers are losing ground due to diminishing interest in passenger cars, Jeep’s focus on rugged SUVs has awarded it with multiple record-breaking sales months.
November was no exception, as Jeep just surpassed its own November sales record.

The Wrangler managed to gain some sales. With a 20 percent sales increase, Jeep Wrangler sales came in at 15,963 units by the end of the month.
