JEEP® ANNOUNCED AS OFFICIAL TOW CAR PARTNER TO THE MOTORHOME & CARAVAN SHOW 2017

It's best-known as the company that builds world-class ‘Go Anywhere, Do Anything' 4x4 vehicles, but its models also make superb tow cars. And Jeep is set to demonstrate this, after being announced as official tow car partner for next week's Motorhome & Caravan Show 2017.

Jeep will mark the official support of the popular show with free one-to-one towing experiences, brought in conjunction with The Camping and Caravanning Club. A fleet of Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles will be available for show-goers to learn how to hitch up a caravan and tow it safely.

The brand will also have a stand at the show, displaying its current range of award-winning vehicles: Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Renegade and Wrangler.

The Grand Cherokee's 247bhp 3.0-litre V6 turbo diesel engine and 3500kg towing capacity is more than enough to cope with a wide variety of caravans, as this Motorhome & Caravan Show event will prove. Specially trained tutors will demonstrate how to get the most out of the vehicle, whether the guests are newcomers or experienced tourers. More information on the towing capability of Grand Cherokee can be found on Jeep's website: http://www.jeep.co.uk/grand-cherokee/capability/

"We are delighted to be official tow car supplier for the Motorhome & Caravan Show, for the third time - we have supported the show previously and it has been a highly successful partnership for us," says Andrew Tracey, Country Brand Manager, Jeep UK.

"Jeep is well known for its award winning off-road vehicles, but our cars also make outstanding towing vehicles, as we will be happy to demonstrate at next week's show."

The Jeep Grand Cherokee range starts at £47,580 OTR for the 3.0 CRD V6 Limited Plus, rising to £69,830 OTR for the high performance 6.4 HEMI SRT. A range of excellent offers are currently available on Grand Cherokee until the end of the year. For details see: http://www.jeep.co.uk/promotions/grand-cherokee/.

The Motorhome & Caravan Show takes place at the NEC, Birmingham and runs from 17-22 October 2017.
