Jeep Bangladesh Director of Operations, Yusuf Aman, along with several stakeholders, unveiled the official club, Jeep Life Bangladesh. This club is for Jeep owners seeking new experiences and/or utilizing their vehicle’s true potential through such trips.
We went to bed early in preparation for the next day spent trying to find our way through by car. The owner learned the true capabilities of the jeep and eventually used the 4×4 outside of Dhaka’s familiar terrain.
High ground clearance and a four-wheel drive powertrain allow the Jeep to tackle difficult obstacles with ease. Ample torque and low-speed gear options give drivers extra control and power when navigating rough terrain.
