2017 Jeep Wrangler Updates: Company Planning A Massive Production Next Year; New Strategy to Proceed With The Plan

The Jeep Wrangler had limited production scale in the past years. This led to a not-so-productive growth in international zones. Just one factory had been operating to fulfill the needs of the customers. But, now the 2017 Jeep Wrangler is going to get a big production through a new plan.

Promotion in the domestic market has been targeted by the company in the U.S. till now. But according to a new report, 2017 Jeep Wrangler is produced in much greater numbers than before this time. For this Jeep has officially invested $750 million at its Ohio-based Toledo plant.

An estimated number of 450,000 units per year will be manufactured this time. The previous number was 240,000 units per year. For achieving these numbers, there are plans to relocate the production department from Jeep Cherokee to the Belvidere factory in Illinois. The estimated costs for this change is more than $300 million.

Another Sergio Marchionne, the FCA CEO, the strategy would open up 700 more employment vacancies in the factory, though this has nothing to do with the Ohio-based workers.
