When you own a Jeep® vehicle you're bound to be far off the beaten path at one time or another, so fuel efficiency becomes all that more important.
And with Jeep Wrangler's six-speed manual transmission delivering an economic worry free experience, you'll appreciate it when the time comes.
The removable front air dam:
- Streamlines airflow around, rather than under, the vehicle
- Provides a low-pressure area directly behind the cooling system components to aid in desired airflow

- Driving Range

Reach out into the wilderness with up to 388-mile driving range.
- Eco-Friendly

Paints, adhesives and plastics often contain considerable quantities of solvents. Unhappy with emission levels, the engineers and paint specialists at Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited’s Assembly Plant set about devising methods of eliminating solvents.
The outcome is a dramatic reduction in solvent consumption and emissions, and cutting the impact on the environment. The Wrangler Unlimited's manufacturing plant is super green, thanks to a chrome-free phosphate, a lead-free E-coat process, a powder coating prime coat and a waterborne basecoat. The assembly plant is continuing the company's efforts to push powder coating and other technologies to higher levels of quality, performance and environmental friendliness.
- Aerodynamics

Wrangler Unlimited was extensively tested in Chrysler’s state-of-the-art Aero-Acoustic Wind Tunnel for maximum slipperiness.
There was a 20% overall noise reduction over previous generation Wranglers.
Some of the major enhancements:
- Curved windshield
- Sloped front grille
- Redesigned side view mirrors
- Refinements to both hard and soft top
- Improved door sealing
Wrangler Unlimited's design places greater emphasis on improved aerodynamics and reducing wind noise. Several aerodynamic aids include:
- Lower air dam and upper fascia that manage airflow and reduce the effects of aerodynamic drag at the front end
- Leading edges of the hood surfaces were aerodynamically tuned
- The interface between the windshield frame and removable top was positioned from in front, to above the header for improved airflow, reduced wind noise and better weather sealing
