Jeep Launches UK-Only Limited-Edition Wrangler 1941 Costing $80,000
The Jeep Wrangler 1941 is a limited-edition SUV celebrating its 80th anniversary, but unfortunately only in the United Kingdom.
Jeep celebrates its 80th anniversary this year by releasing a host of special editions of its existing line-up. The latest is the Wrangler 1941 edition that comes with unique styling, 80th anniversary badging, and a host of upgrades to improve its off-roading prowess.
The Wrangler 1941 is a customized Rubicon that will only be available in the UK. It will also be super exclusive, with Jeep making only 41 examples. With a host of new equipment and design cues, the company has brought out the most capable Wrangler available. The new Jeep Performance Parts include a 2-inch suspension lift kit and wider wheel arches, making the Wrangler 1941 taller than the current Rubicon spec. Moreover, Jeep has included an even tougher rear underbody protection.
Jeep has also included various design elements that give the Wrangler 1941 a clean and exclusive look. The hood sees unique 1941 decals, with Rubicon and Wrangler written on the sides, along with a black fuel cap to distinguish the special edition from the standard ones. Door sill guards, front and rear splash guards, hardtop headliner, and all-weather floor mats are also present.
However, Jeep didn't upgrade anything under the hood. Like the standard Wrangler, the special edition comes with the same 2.2L Multijet four-cylinder diesel engine that pumps out 200 HP and 332 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox, sending the power to all four wheels. The setup comes with average WLTP-cycle fuel consumption of 29.4 mpg and a 253 g/km carbon-emission rating.
Along with the new styling and performance parts, the Jeep Wrangler 1941 is available in 4 colors: Brilliant Black, Granite Crystal, Firecracker red, and Billet Silver. The special edition is available only with the four-door option. Pricing in the UK starts at £58,050 ($80,770), which is way more expensive than the US-spec Wrangler Rubicon, which starts at $38,695.
