Jeep – other models: the collective page of Jeep models registered as commercial vehicles outside the named ranges, from the CJ series through the Comanche to the Grand Cherokee, 59 to 160 kW
This page gathers Jeep vehicles registered as light commercial vehicles (class N1) that the register could not assign to a named range – from the off-road CJ models through the Comanche pick-up to Grand Cherokee versions with commercial registration. The CJ (Civilian Jeep) series traces back to the World War II military jeep and was built as a civilian off-roader into the 1980s; the Comanche was Jeep's only pick-up from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s, based on the Cherokee, while the Grand Cherokee and Commander as estate-bodied vehicles with high towing capacity were sometimes registered as commercial vehicles too.

The register lists here 118 versions with 59 to 160 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 1,956 to 6,417 cm³, unladen weights from 1,011 to 2,925 kg, gross weights up to 3,500 kg, lengths from 4,240 to 5,540 mm and widths from 1,500 to 2,150 mm.
Commercial registration on the SUV models is usually down to tax or registration reasons rather than body style; Jeep thus sits alongside the Land Rover Defender or Toyota Land Cruiser as an off-roader with a commercial-use option.
On the CJ classics, what counts is rust on the frame and body and the condition of the transfer cases and axles; on the Comanche, additionally the load bed and tailgate; on the Grand Cherokee and Commander, the condition of the air suspension (where fitted), the automatic transmission and four-wheel-drive system, plus the parts supply, which varies greatly by model year and engine variant.
