For World War II, the US general staff knew they needed a light multi-purpose vehicle with all-wheel drive. Willys Overland's prototype was chosen. After an initial run of 1500 vehicles, it went into mass production at the beginning of 1941 and reached a total output of 640,000 units. This made the Jeep the most widely produced light vehicle of America's war industry during World War II.
