In the Dominican Republic, a jeepeta is any SUV or off-road vehicle. The name comes from the Jeep brand, which was the first all-terrain vehicle to become well known. Because of this, the term is now used generically for all vehicles in that category, so even a Land Rover or a Toyota 4Runner is called a jeepeta.

Before, the Land Rover was the SUV for the rich and the Hummer was for the poor with money. Now both are SUVs for the poor with money.
