Jeep has introduced a new and very special version of the Wrangler in India. It is called the Wrangler Willys ‘41 Special Edition and is priced at ₹73.16 lakh (ex-showroom). This version is inspired by the original 1941 Willys Jeep and comes with unique styling and added features. Jeep is only making 30 units of this edition, so it is quite exclusive.

What’s Different?

The Willys ‘41 Special Edition is based on the top-end Rubicon variant of the Wrangler. It costs ₹1.51 lakh more than the standard Rubicon, which is priced at ₹71.65 lakh.

This special edition comes in a unique “41 Green” colour, which gives it a classic military look. If you are not a fan of green, Jeep is offering other colour options as well. A large “1941” decal on the hood reminds you of its heritage.

To make getting in and out of the tall SUV easier, Jeep has added powered side steps. It also includes front and rear dash cameras for added safety and all-weather floor mats, which are useful if you plan to take it off-road.

Optional Accessories

Jeep is also offering some extra accessories for this edition. You can buy a roof carrier with a side ladder and a Sunrider rooftop. But be prepared to pay more—these optional add-ons cost around ₹4.56 lakh.

Inside and Under the Hood

Inside, the Wrangler Willys ‘41 Special Edition is just like the Rubicon. It has a tough and rugged design with large buttons and controls that are easy to use even with gloves. The SUV also features a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that shows all the important details you need while driving.

It is powered by a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that produces 270 PS of power and 400 Nm of torque. The engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Like the Rubicon, it also gets a full-time 4×4 system, locking front and rear differentials, and a sway bar disconnect feature that gives better wheel articulation on rough terrain.

Any Rivals?

The Jeep Wrangler does not have a direct rival in its price range in India. But if you want something even more premium, you can look at options like the Land Rover Defender or the Mercedes-Benz G-Class. That said, the Wrangler offers true off-road capability at a lower price point.

Final Thoughts

The Jeep Wrangler Willys ‘41 Special Edition is a special treat for off-road fans and Jeep lovers. With its heritage-inspired design, limited availability, and go-anywhere ability, it is a unique SUV that stands out from the crowd. If you want one, you better act fast—only 30 units will be sold in India.
