Jeep Wrangler 4×4
In the middle of Manhattan’s urban energy, Camp Jeep delivered, once again, a true off-road experience that transported nearly 30,000 guests out of the city and into the wild—without ever leaving Hell’s Kitchen! Set up just outside the Jacob Javits Center, the open-air track gave the activation a distinctive feel, turning heads from passersby and drawing crowds throughout the 10-day event.
Gordinier Group’s precision driver-product specialists were behind the wheel, guiding attendees through a rugged and technical course featuring steep inclines, and articulation challenges—all designed to showcase Jeep’s legendary 4×4 capability. Despite a few bouts of unpredictable spring weather, the team kept rides running smoothly and safely, ensuring the experience never missed a beat.
Guests were especially wowed by the electrified performance of the Wrangler and Grand Cherokee 4xe models. The ability to switch to electric mode mid-course and the surprising smoothness of the suspension over obstacles gave many a new perspective on hybrid and plug-in hybrid technology.
The New York setting amplified the contrast between Jeep’s trail-tested performance and the city’s steel skyline—making Camp Jeep not just a drive, but a statement. Once again, Jeep proved that adventure doesn’t stop at the pavement—and that no one does off-road like Jeep.
After a notable absence from last year’s LA Auto Show, Camp Jeep made a triumphant return as thousands of automotive enthusiasts experienced the legendary capability of Jeep vehicles firsthand. Gordinier Group’s precision drivers guided nearly 30,000 attendees through an engineered off-road course demonstrating a range of Trail Rated features that define the Jeep lineup.
Gordinier Group’s Team provided expert commentary throughout each run, educating riders about specific Trail Rated capabilities being showcased at each obstacle. From the ground clearance displayed during stair crawling segments to the maneuverability exhibited in tight, banked turns, the course highlighted the engineering that makes Jeep vehicles capable of conquering extreme terrain.
The dynamic course, designed and built by our partners at George P Johnson, challenged vehicles and thrilled passengers with a series of purpose-built obstacles. Participants experienced impressive articulation and traction control systems as Jeeps navigated steep grades and uneven terrain. Making its debut in LA, the new 28-foot tall Jeep Mountain with a 40-degree incline/decline tested each vehicle’s climbing ability and hill descent control, while the off-camber bridge showcased suspension and ground clearance.
The immersive Camp Jeep experience coupled with our elite team of drivers gave Auto Show attendees a deeper appreciation for Jeep’s off-road heritage and innovative technology. For many participants, the adrenaline-pumping ride marked their first time experiencing the full potential of a Jeep vehicle’s capabilities in a controlled yet exciting environment.
An absolute mecca for enthusiasts, Jeep Beach has been drawing faithful “Jeepers” to Daytona for over 20 years. Part car show, part party, and all-Jeep, Gordinier Group makes the trip each year to add to the fun by building a challenging off-road course on the infield of the iconic Daytona International Speedway. Once complete, our precision drivers showcase both the capabilities of new Jeep vehicles and proper off-road driving techniques to thousands of Jeep loyalists.
In the months before the event, our experienced logistics team secured everything needed to make this build happen. From permits to dirt delivery to heavy equipment, it’s all taken care of before the team hits the ground. With a short two-day build window, attention to detail is essential for this exciting event.
Once up and running, even the most seasoned enthusiasts are impressed by Jeep’s prowess throughout the model lineup as the vehicles effortlessly traverse the rugged terrain, affirming its dominance in the off-road arena.
The constant growth in popularity of this event serves as a testament to the enduring strength of the Jeep brand. We consider ourselves lucky to play a small role in helping to fuel the passion shown by the fans attending this event. And we always strive to do it on time, on budget, and on brand.
