When most people think of the Mojave Desert they think of Death Valley, mule teams and heat. The folks at Jeep® want to change all that and make you think of yet another special edition Wrangler.
The Jeep® Wrangler “Mojave” Special-edition pays tribute to renowned, rugged Mojave Trail and features a desert-themed exterior and interior design. This newest version of the Wrangler is expected to arrive in Jeep showrooms in June, just in time for those 120 degree Mojave lazy days of summer.
“The Mojave Trail is known for expeditions, exploration and a rugged environment that features elevation, sand, canyons, a river crossing and hill climbs – the perfect landscape for the Jeep Wrangler,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO — Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “By creating the Jeep Wrangler Mojave, we are able to deliver another specialized vehicle that Jeep enthusiasts will love, while drawing new customers into Jeep showrooms.”
Using the Wrangler Sport model as a base, the Mojave Special Edition is designed to create a unique desert theme that conveys off-road desert fun. Hopefully, the folks at Jeep® know what “desert fun” is and will share that with those of us who live in more habitable climates.
From the sidewalk, exterior features include a body-color hardtop and fender flares, “Mojave” and lizard decals on the hood and rear, and the Sahara model’s side steps. Jeep Wrangler Mojave also offers Wrangler's Rubicon tire and wheel package, with mineral gray 17-inch wheels shod with 32-inch tires. Finishing touches on the exterior include a black fuel filler door and tail lamp guards.
From the driver’s seat you'll notice the Mojave’s seats are dark saddle leather with a lizard logo embossed on the front seats. Driftwood surrounds the vents, front-passenger grab handle, steering-wheel spokes and door-handle inserts. Mopar® tread pattern slush mats and overhead grab handles complete the Mojave package.
The new 2011 Jeep Wrangler Mojave is available in Sahara Tan, Bright White and Black, a color not recommended for desert trail expeditions.
The Jeep Wrangler Mojave option is available at a U.S. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $29,195, excluding $750 destination
