After launching the all-new Jeep Wrangler in the local scene a couple of weeks ago, Jeep Philippines has expanded its Wrangler line-up with the top trim Rubicon variant, the most off-road capable variant of the famous SUV.
The Rubicon variant of the Wrangler features more aggressive exterior designs bits, including a large Rubicon sticker and LT255/75R17C tires with all-aluminum wheels for better off-roading capability. Being the higher variant of the Wrangler line-up, the interior also features more premium appointments whilst still retaining the durability and hard-wearing all-weather nature of the interior. The Rubicon variant now gets a bigger UConnect 4 infotainment system with an 8.4” touchscreen display equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Under the hood of the Wrangler Rubicon is a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, producing 286 hp and 353Nm of torque. Also offered is a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine with a mild-hybrid system for better fuel efficiency, which produces 268 hp of power with 400 Nm of torque. Both engines are mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Equipped with a Trail Rated badge, the legendary Jeep Wrangler Rubicon features Rock-Trac 4×4 system with a “4LO” ratio of 4:1 and Tru-Lok locking differentials. The Rubicon is also equipped with skid plates, front and rear tow hooks, and available front and rear steel heavy-duty off-road winch-ready bumpers with removable end caps for water fording and towing.
The all-new Wrangler Rubicon receives a host of safety upgrades with more than 75 available active and passive safety and security features, which include blind spot monitoring, rear cross path detection, backup camera with dynamic grid lines, electronic stability control and multiple airbags.
