The iconic Jeep® Wrangler – the most capable and recognized vehicle in the world – kicks off the new model year with the Rubicon X special-edition. The combination of open-air freedom, off-road capability and on-road refinement has brought Jeep Wrangler’s popularity to an all-time high. Special-edition models are a staple for Jeep Wrangler enthusiasts. 

The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X is new for 2014 and brings added off-road capability above the already-legendary Rubicon model with a winch-capable bumper, wider rock rails and higher level of standard content. 

Jeep Wrangler has always had a unique variety of colours to choose from, and 2014 is no different. New exterior colours include: Amp’d, Copperhead, Granite Crystal Metallic and Hydro Blue. Billet Metallic, Bright White, Black, Anvil, Flame Red, and Dune continue on for 2014 are also available.  

Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X
Available as a two-door Jeep Wrangler or four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, the Rubicon X is the most capable Jeep Wrangler in the line-up. Based on the Rubicon model, it is equipped with Jeep Wrangler’s part-time four-wheel-drive system that has electronic-locking front and rear Dana® 44 axles that receive power through a Rock-Trac® transfer case with a “4-Low” ratio of 4:1.  A 4.10 axle ratio, front and rear, is also standard as are Tru-Lok locking differentials. With a six-speed manual transmission, the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X has an impressive crawl ratio of 73.1:1 making it a breeze to negotiate any obstacle. 

The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X has many features that make it distinctive, as well as the most off-road capable Jeep Wrangler. BF Goodrich® 255/75R17 tires are mounted on 17-inch Rubicon aluminum wheels painted Satin Black with polished faces and a red Jeep Wrangler “icon” logo on the inside pocket. 

Black front and rear steel off-road bumpers toughen up the exterior, with the front bumper featuring removable end caps and a winch-capable design. These removable end caps help the Jeep Wrangler climb obstacles without hindrance, and reduce the damage potential to the bumper system. A dual-intake Power Dome hood helps aid in engine cooling and gives Jeep Wrangler a more menacing appearance. Red tow hooks adorn the front and rear, and Mopar® rock rails give added protection from trail damage. Mopar also supplies the Black fuel filler door. A red-silhouette “Rubicon” decal, on both sides of the hood, adds the finishing exterior touches to distinguish the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X model’s added capability. 
 
The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X comes standard with a Premium Sunrider soft top and is available with either a Black or body-colour three-piece Jeep Freedom Top® hardtop.  

The interior has special touches as well.  Black leather seats are standard, as are seat heaters for the front passengers. A unique gauge cluster features Rubicon X exclusive styling and also features a premium Electronic Vehicle Information Centre (EVIC) with added read-outs such as oil pressure, transmission and coolant temperatures, digital speed and individual tire pressure. The passenger grab handle features Quick Silver accents that are also found on the vent rings, steering wheel spokes and door pulls. 

Final design touches include Mopar slush mats and unique axle locker and sway-bar disconnect switches.

Powertrain
Chrysler Group’s 3.6-litre Pentastar™ VVT V6 engine – three-time winner of the prestigious Ward’s Automotive “10 Best Engines” in the industry award – delivers 285 hp and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. It is engineered to provide a broad torque band with a focus on low-end torque, an essential trait needed for extreme off-roading. Engineers also designed the oil sump to provide oil to the pump even at extreme vehicle angles, and the alternator was placed up high so Jeep Wrangler can maintain its water-fording capability. 

Available with a six-speed manual or an available five-speed automatic, the Jeep Wrangler can achieve up to 9.3 L/100 km (30 mpg) highway1. 

Engineering
The 2014 Jeep Wrangler delivers unmatched off-road capability with legendary four-wheel-drive and is produced with more than seven decades of 4x4 engineering experience. Jeep Wrangler continues to offer a body-on-frame design, front and rear five-link suspension system, live axles, electronic lockers, and is one of the few mid-size SUVs to offer a six-speed manual transmission – in addition to its five-speed automatic transmission.

Jeep Wrangler is available with several axle gear ratios allowing customers to optimize fuel economy and/or vehicle capability. Jeep Wrangler is available with 3.21, 3.73 or 4.10 ratios depending on the model. Also, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited offers a towing capability of up to 1,587 kg (3,500 lb.).

A best-in-class approach angle of 42.4 degrees, break-over angle of 22.3 degrees and departure angle of 33.4 degrees, helps Jeep Wrangler scale the toughest terrain. 

The capable driveline of the Sport and Sahara models include a Dana 30 front axle and Dana 44 rear axle. The Command-Trac™ NV241, part-time, two-speed transfer case, features a 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio. In addition, an optional Trac-Lok limited-slip rear differential provides extra torque and grip in low-traction environments such as sand, mud or snow. 

The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon model features heavy-duty Dana 44 front and rear axles and the Rock-Trac NV241 two-speed transfer case with a 4:1 low-range gear ratio. Rubicon also includes electric front and rear locking differentials, disconnecting front sway bar and 32-inch tires, taking the Jeep  Wrangler to the highest level of capability. 

Design
Jeep Wrangler’s interior combines functional styling, versatility, comfort and intuitive feature use. Highlights include available automatic temperature controls, heated premium leather seats, power mirrors and steering wheel controls for audio and cruise control. Large rear windows are engineered for greater visibility. A USB port connects to the media centre, while a 12-volt accessory and an available 115-volt AC outlet are available to power electronics.

Jeep Wrangler’s signature exterior features include: classic round headlamps, seven-slot grille, trapezoidal wheel flares, removable doors, exposed hinges, a fold-down windshield and innovative removable tops and half doors that allow the Jeep Wrangler to retain the brand’s iconic appearance and function. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and Sahara models share a modular body-colour hardtop option, offering a premium appearance. 

With room for five adults, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited remains the only four-door 4x4 open air vehicle on the market.

Safety, Security, and Connectivity
