Which automotive conglomerate has owned Jeep since 2021?

The automotive conglomerate that has owned Jeep since 2021 is Stellantis.

Stellantis was created through the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, or FCA, and France’s Groupe PSA. The merger became effective on January 16, 2021, bringing the Jeep brand into the new multinational company. Jeep is operated within Stellantis North America and remains one of the group’s best-known brands.

The ownership history is easy to confuse because Jeep spent several decades within Chrysler-related companies. Chrysler acquired Jeep from American Motors Corporation in 1987. Chrysler later became part of DaimlerChrysler, and its successor assets eventually formed FCA. Thus, “Fiat Chrysler Automobiles” was Jeep’s immediate pre-Stellantis corporate owner, not its current owner.

Jeep itself is an American brand rather than a separate automotive conglomerate. Its lineup is associated primarily with sport-utility vehicles, including the Wrangler, Grand Cherokee, Compass, and Renegade, while Stellantis also owns brands such as Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, Peugeot, Citroën, and Alfa Romeo. The 2021 change was corporate ownership, not a change in Jeep’s American brand identity.
