Jeep brand has just introduced the launch of the new limited-edition series of 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude, 2012 Jeep Compass Altitude and 2012 Jeep Patriot Altitude.

In January, Jeep introduced a distinctive, “blacked-out” production-intent concept Grand Cherokee. With this introduction, the brand decided to leave an important part to the customers themselves. They had to give a name to the model. With more than 100,000 entries from enthusiasts, what emerged as a name was “Altitude”.

Both three new models will be at dealerships in beginning of May.

2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude limited edition combines a variety of exterior design changes, which result in a unique model with an aggressive chrome and “blacked-out” look.

The vehicle’s grille surround appears in black gloss, and mesh grille texture in platinum chrome. The front-end appearance is completed by a platinum chrome lower fascia appliqué.

In addition the “blacked-out” theme throughout the vehicle’s exterior is continued by a black headlamp bezels and a black liftgate light bar. The SUV sits on 20-inch tires which surround black-gloss aluminum wheels.

Furthermore the interior of this model features standard leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, a 9-speaker 506-watt amp sound system with subwoofer, iPod/MP3 connectivity, Parkview™ rear back-up camera, ParkSense® rear-park assist system, Keyless Enter-N-Go, Chrysler Group’s Uconnect hands-free communications system.

2012 Jeep Compass Altitude is one of the two newly developed limited edition models. It is a continuation of the “from-the-factory” customized look first seen in the Grand Cherokee concept.

What is typical about it is that it has a distinctive black gloss finish which surrounds Compass’ trademark seven-slot Jeep grille and headlamps.

The same style continues with black roof rails and a black step pad. In addition the 2012 Jeep Compass Altitude rides on the outstanding 18-inch black gloss aluminum wheels wearing Firestone BSW all-season performance tires.
