Jeep has revealed the facelifted Wrangler.
Top story for this new Wrangler is the fact that its seven-slot grille has been updated. The slots are now slimmer, and made more prominent thanks to the use of bezels.
A redesigned front grille not only offers more cooling, but is made more prominent thanks to the addition of bezels in its slots The new grille is said to improve cooling, while also allowing for fitment of a new 3,600kg factory installed Warn winch, which is available on Rubicon models.
The Jeep Wrangler also now comes with a new trail-ready stealth antenna which is integrated into the front windshield. This replaces the previous steel mast antenna, streamlining the Wrangler's appearance while eliminating the chance of brush or tree limb snags on the trail.
In the cabin, meanwhile, the Wrangler now gets a new 12.3-inch touchscreen that houses the fifth generation Uconnect 5 system. This system is said to deliver operating speeds that are five times faster when compared to the previous generation and will be able to receive over-the-air updates.
