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. 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.
