The Jeep was patented 75 years ago on April 7th, 1941.
75年前的1941年4月7日,吉普轎車成功申請(qǐng)專利。
The actual production of the first American Jeep was a joint effort, with American Bantam creating the winning design and receiving the patent.
第一輛美國吉普實(shí)為“合資”品,由美國班塔姆汽車公司設(shè)計(jì),并獲得專利權(quán)。

But their engine didn't have enough kick, so the U.S. Military insisted that Willy-Overland's engine design had to go into the Jeep for Bantam to keep their military contract.
但吉普引擎后勁不足,美軍為保證合同,堅(jiān)持使用“Willy-Overland”公司設(shè)計(jì)引擎。
From there, Ford had to step in to make sure enough Jeeps were being made to ship off to World War 2.
福特公司保證二戰(zhàn)吉普供給。
Since then, the Jeep has been a classic part of America's off road vehicle collection.
自此以后,吉普就成為了美國越野車的經(jīng)典。
