Jeep India has launched the hardcore Wrangler Rubicon in India for a price of Rs 68.94 lakh (ex-showroom, pan-India). The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon costs about Rs 5 lakhs more than the standard version of the SUV. Deliveries will only commence from March 15. The Rubicon is the most capable version of the Wrangler.
It is powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that makes 268hp and 400Nm of peak torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox and Jeep’s RockTrac 4×4 all-wheel-drive (AWD) system. This is the most hardcore version of the Wrangler and it of course comes with upgraded running gear and Rubicon badges and stickers.
It even features the ‘Trail-Rated’ badge on the front fenders and no other Jeep SUV deserves this badge more than the Wrangler Rubicon. The Rubicon features a two-speed transfer case with a 4:1 ‘4LO’ low-range gear ratio, full-time torque management, electronic locking differentials at the front and rear axles and an electronically operated sway bar that enhances articulation and travel. The ground clearance stands at 217mm and the approach, departure and breakover angles stand at 43.9, 22.6, 37 degrees respectively. That’s an improvement over standard Wrangler’s by 2.1-degrees, 1.6-degrees and 0.9-degrees, respectively.
In terms of design, apart from the Rubicon stickers, this version of the Wrangler does not differentiate itself much from the standard Wrangler. It comes in the same five colours – Firecracker Red, Billet Silver, Black, Bright White, and Granite Crystal. However, the Rubicon is shod with smaller 17-inch alloy wheels with wider profile 255/75R 17 Mud Terrain tyres. Like the standard Wrangler, the Rubicon comes with a fold-down windshield, a removable hard roof, and doors that can be dismantled and refitted.
