New Jeep Wrangler to feature reconfigurable hardtop
New details have emerged about the next-generation Jeep Wrangler, which we first reported on last week. Sources say the off-roader — which will be offered in two- and four-door configurations — will feature removable t-tops for the front, and a regular hardtop for the rear. It will also feature a flip-down windshield and removable doors. Recent published reports also indicate it will feature a higher ground clearance and added skid-plates. In our last report, we noted that the new Jeep would be “considerably wider and longer than today’s Wrangler, with exterior styling said to resemble that of the Jeep Gladiator concept truck unveiled in January at the Detroit auto show.” And while the Wrangler’s exterior becomes more rugged, its interior will reportedly become more luxurious and upscale. As with the previous-generation Wrangler, Jeep will continue to offer a Rubicon Edition. Jeep is also rumored to be planning a CRD diesel powerplant in addition to the 2.4-liter, 3.7-liter, and 5.7-liter gasoline offerings.
