Gulf Weekly Latest model makes its mark in India

The fourth-gen Wrangler will finally be launched by Jeep India on Saturday and motorists in the country are quite excited about it.

According to Autocar India, it will be sold in the five-door body style with equipment levels similar to the Jeep Wrangler’s Unlimited Sahara that is being sold in international markets. It will of course carry Jeep’s original DNA although the tail lamps are larger as well as the rear window that’s placed a little lower for improved visibility out. The front looks similar to the iconic Jeep CJ5 and the beltline is lowered by about an inch.

The interior still manages to look similar to the outgoing model but with more cabin room and a lot more features including a 7.0-inch multi-info display, an 8.4-inch infotainment screen, dual-zone climate control, rear AC vents, more storage spaces, and multiple 12V sockets and USB ports.

Globally, the new Wrangler will be available with two petrol and two diesel engine options although there is no news on which engine option will make it to the Indian market.

The new Wrangler is manufactured at Jeep’s Toledo facility in the US and is expected to be priced slightly higher than the older model.

In addition to this model, Jeep will introduce the 9-speed automatic-equipped standard Compass SUV in the coming months.
