The very first Land Rover was built in 1947 as a prototype. Designer Maurice Wilks (UK, 1904-1963) was inspired by the multi purpose Jeep used by the American Army during WWII. Rover wanted to meet a need for a strong 4WD vehicle used on rough areas in the UK and Common Wealth countries abroad.
The final Land Rover version was launched at the RAI Amsterdam Motor Show, April 1948.
