November 4, 2022 , Auburn Hills, Mich. – Jeep® brand and ADDAX Overland are proud to co-launch the Jeep-branded Edition by ADDAX Overland Trailer.
Inspired by the U.S. military’s all-but-indestructible surveillance trailers and engineered by the team that set a world land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats, the Jeep-branded Edition has set the new benchmark for off-road overlanding performance, capability and comfort.
Boasting an unprecedented dry weight of just 850 pounds, Jeep adventure-seekers can now tow a 1,200-pound payload up previously unfathomable terrain—all without compromising a Jeep brand vehicle’s signature stability and efficiency. The Jeep-branded Edition’s high-strength, lightweight engineering makes it the perfect companion for technical rock climbers and beginner off-roaders alike. Thanks to the Jeep-branded Edition’s foldable tongue and compact 5-foot-by-6-foot dimensions, even those adventurers with limited garage space can always be ready to get off the grid.
The Jeep-branded Edition’s independent torsion axle trailer suspension system provides an aggressive 17 inches of ground clearance for maximum maneuverability, control and comfort. The 3/16-inch military-grade steel chassis and 14-gauge steel body are seamlessly bent, instead of welded, to deliver industry-leading durability.
The Jeep-branded Edition comes standard with:
- robust 35 cubic square feet of storage
- four 8,000-pound stabilizing corner jacks
- foldable tongue
- articulating hitch
- rear receiver hitch
- heavy-duty, custom rack for endless mounting possibilities
“We are proud to have earned the Jeep brand’s trust by creating a trailer that can conquer any terrain,” said ADDAX CEO Kirk Jowers. “We are excited to continue to engage with Jeep in engineering the most innovative and comprehensive line of overlanding products for the Jeep brand’s loyal community.”
“Together with the team at ADDAX, we are excited to announce the co-launch of the most cutting-edge overland trailer on the planet,” said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. “The Jeep-branded Edition by ADDAX can truly follow a Jeep Trail-Rated vehicle anywhere and demonstrates the Jeep brand’s commitment to empowering our community with the gold standard in overlanding performance. Thanks to the Jeep-branded Edition, adventurers can now enjoy the most beautiful and remote places on Earth even longer.”
Off-roading enthusiasts and Jeep brand loyalists will be able to secure a sneak peek of the Jeep-branded Edition by ADDAX at SEMA’s New Product Showcase, Overlanding Exhibit and Booth 60119 today, November 4, 2022.
