    Jeep India has revealed prices for the refreshed Wrangler. The updated SUV is now priced from Rs 67.65 lakh for the Unlimited, with prices going up to Rs 71.65 lakh for the Rubicon, which means the Wrangler range costs about Rs 5 lakh more. Here’s what you get for the premium.

    1. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited gets new grille, 18-inch alloys
    2. Wrangler Rubicon also sports blacked-out grille, new 17-inch alloys
    3. Both get new 12.3-inch touchscreen, 12-way powered front seats

    Jeep Wrangler Unlimited: 2024 design changes

    The most noticeable changes on the outside of the Wrangler Unlimited are the new blacked-out grille (it used to be body-coloured) and the new 18-inch alloy wheels. Jeep says the windshield is also new, and is now made of Gorilla glass. In addition, the Unlimited now comes with five exterior colour options – Sarge Green has been added to the line-up of Bright White, Black, Granite Crystal and Firecracker Red.

    Jeep Wrangler Rubicon: 2024 design changes

    Like the Unlimited, the Rubicon also now sports an all-black grille and new 17-inch alloy wheels. The previous portfolio of colours continues – Sarge Green, Bright White, Black, Granite Crystal and Firecracker Red. The Rubicon continues to get all the badges and decals that mark it apart as the more hardcore Wrangler.

    Jeep Wrangler: 2024 interior changes

    There’s not too much that’s different on the inside of the Wrangler facelift when compared to the outgoing mode. The layout is more or less the same, but for the adjustments made to fit the new 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, which runs on Jeep’s latest Uconnect 5 OS – the round central air vents are now thin slits that are positioned below the aforementioned touchscreen. The Unlimited and Rubicon also now get 12-way powered front seats, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and six airbags, which is two more than before.

    Other safety kit includes electronic stability control, hill start assist, hill descent control, electronic roll mitigation, automatic headlamps, a tyre pressure monitor, and rear parking sensors and camera.

    Jeep Wrangler: 2024 powertrain, off-road gear

    As before, both variants are powered by the 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, which is shared with the Grand Cherokee. In the Wrangler, it produces 270hp and 400Nm of peak torque, and is mated to an 8-speed torque convertor automatic. Jeep’s Selec-Trac full-time 4WD system is standard, and the design changes see the approach, departure and breakover angle remain unchanged at 36 degrees, 31 degrees, and 20 degrees (21 degrees for the Rubicon), respectively.

    The Wrangler Rubicon also gets a Rock mode for the Selec-Trac system, locking front and rear differentials, a front sway bar that’s able to be electronically disconnected, and a 240 Amp alternator.

    Jeep Wrangler: 2024 rivals

    Despite the increase in price, the Wrangler is still more affordable that the closest SUV it has as a rival in our market, the Land Rover Defender 110 (Rs 97 lakh-2.35 crore).
