Jeep introduces subtle yet striking enhancements to the Wrangler’s exterior. Changes include a sleek all-black grille, fresh alloy wheel designs, and a broader range of exterior paint options. Notably, the facelifted model now features a standard Gorilla glass windshield.
Interior Upgrades and Technology:
Inside, the Wrangler retains its familiar layout while embracing modern conveniences. The highlight is the introduction of a spacious 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system powered by the latest Uconnect 5 operating system. Complementing this upgrade are 12-way power-adjustable front seats and the convenience of wireless connectivity with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Safety Features and Off-Road Capabilities:
Safety remains a priority with the inclusion of a comprehensive suite of features such as multiple airbags, electronic stability control, and hill descent control. Off-road enthusiasts will appreciate the continuation of the capable 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and Selec-Trac full-time 4WD system.
Expected Pricing and Competition:
With the addition of new features, the facelifted Wrangler is anticipated to command a slightly higher price than its predecessors, currently priced at around Rs 62.65 lakh and Rs 66.65 lakh for the Unlimited and Rubicon variants, respectively. While there are no direct competitors, the Land Rover Defender 110 stands as a formidable alternative in a similar price range, ranging from Rs 97 lakh to 2.35 crore.
