Jeep Wrangler Willys ’41 Special Edition: what’s new?
Based on the top-spec Rubicon variant, the Wrangler Willys ’41 Special Edition comes painted in a unique “41 Green” paint shade which is exclusively reserved for this special edition variant, and is reminiscent of the military green of the original Willys Jeep. There’s also a ‘1941’ decal on the hood which marks the year the Willys MB – the military-spec Jeep – went into mass production. This special edition can also be had with the regular colours available on the Wrangler – white, black, red and grey.
The special edition Wrangler also comes fitted with a powered side step, new interior grab handles, all-weather floor mats and front and rear dashcams, which can be useful accessories on off-road trails. For an additional Rs 4.56 lakh, customers can also opt for a sunrider rooftop and a side ladder with a roof carrier for that extra dose of the adventure aesthetics.
