In 1940. after World War II had broken out. the US general staff ordered various factories to design a light multi-purpose vehicle with all-wheel drive. The American Bantam Company. Willys Overland. and Ford Motor Co. competed with each other. A Willys prototype was chosen. which. after an initial run of 1500 vehicles. went into mass production at the beginning of 1941 and reached a total output of 640.000 units out of which 277.000 pieces were produced by Ford under a licensing agreement. This shows that the Jeep was the most widely produced light vehicle in the war industry during World War II.
