2011 Jeep Wrangler: “Numerous” changes to “directly address” customer feedback, particularly that of off-roaders. Nothing specific was mentioned but the Wrangler has been put forward as Jeep's halo car — the vehicle that defines Jeep. As such, it seems that Jeep will be working hard to make it clearly superior to Toyota, Hummer, and Mahindra challengers.
2010 Jeep Wranger: tow hooks, fog lamps, full-length center console, front floor mats, and premium cloth trim are now standard on all models. Front seatback map pockets are included with the standard cloth seats. Sahara and Rubicon can now be ordered with leather-faced trim. Metallic green, orange pearl, detantor yellow were replaced by surf blue pearl, dark charcoal pearl, and natural green pearl. Islander and Mountain appearance packages available.
2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Aside from color changes, the main alterations for 2009 are switching right-hand-drive postal-unit models from two doors to four doors; making hill-start assist standard on all models, with all transmissions; and including trailer sway control with the Trailer Tow Group. Interior features we were told to expect, but have not confirmed, are a larger sun visor, another bin for the full center console, new storage nets, and a center dome lamp with switched directional lighting.
The 2007 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited had room for five adult passengers – a Wrangler first – and the most cargo space ever offered in a Wrangler.
“Combining four-door convenience with Wrangler’s unique open-air design and unmatched off-road capability, the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the only four-door convertible on the market,” said George Murphy, Senior Vice President – Global Brand Marketing, Chrysler Group.
The Wrangler Unlimited adds a full 20.6 inches to the standard 2007 Wrangler’s 95.4-inch wheelbase. The additional length allows for a larger rear seat with three positions, as well as more hip, leg and shoulder room, as well as nearly triple the rear cargo space.
In both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited utilizes the same five-link solid-axle suspension configuration as the standard 2007 Jeep Wrangler. The Unlimited also retains Wrangler’s removable full-framed or half doors, exposed hinges, fold-down windshield and innovative removable and convertible tops.
There are three models: Wrangler Unlimited X, Sahara and Rubicon, with hundreds of different top, door and windshield combinations. In addition, nine exterior colors and available 16-, 17-, or 18-inch wheels will be available.
“No other vehicle in the world can replicate the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s unique combination of best-in-class off-road capability, open-air fun and everyday convenience and versatility,” said Mike Donoughe, Vice President – Body-on-frame Product Team. “Whether it’s used as a daily driver or for extreme rock crawling, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited has the ability to turn mountains into mole hills, while comfortably carrying passengers and gear.”
Providing easy entry and exit, all four doors on the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited are front-hinged, with inside and outside handles, and windows that travel all the way down. Rear doors feature exposed forged hinges, open a full 90 degrees, and provide a 26.5-inch wide opening. Rear seat passengers have a 33-inch front-to-rear couple distance and 37.2 inches of legroom. Rear seats split 60/40, and easily fold flat, creating 83 cu. ft. of total storage volume.
With rear seats in the upright position, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited features 46.4 cu. ft. of cargo space behind the rear seat, providing more cargo space than the 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser, 2006 Hummer H3, or 2006 Nissan Xterra. A new lockable underfloor storage area secures personal items out of sight.
Identical to the standard 2007 Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited features an instrument panel, center stack and high-back front bucket seats. The front-seat area provides 54.6 cu. ft. of space, providing 5.1 inches more shoulder room and 4.6 inches more hip room compared to 2006 Jeep Wrangler models.
SEMA Jeep Wranglers for 2008 and 2009: Lower Forty and Overland Camper
The Jeep Wrangler Overland concept replaced the 2009 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon’s rear seats with a large, flat, rubberized utility floor. A new ARB two-person Simpson II rooftop-mounted tent and touring awning is mounted to the back. The interior of the Jeep Wrangler Overland features water-resistant Mopar front-seat covers, rugged Mopar slush mats, a Daystar dash bin and lower switch panel that powers added accessories.
An American Expedition Vehicles’ (AEV) Nth Degree, 3-inch suspension lift and a Full Traction rear sway bar increase off-road prowess. The lift allows aggressive 35-inch tires mounted on 17-inch steel Mopar winter/off-road wheels to fit under the Jeep. Additional off-road protection at the front and rear is provided by AEV steel bumpers and for added security, a Warn 9.5ti winch. An AEV Jeep Wrangler heat-reduction hood and snorkel kit provide desert resistance. Mopar windshield-mounted off-road lights and Daystar bumper-mounted lights provide additional lighting for nighttime and off-road driving.
Lower Forty
The Jeep “Lower Forty” has 40-inch x 13.5-inch tires mounted on Mopar’s 20-inch forged-aluminum wheels, on a stock Jeep Wrangler Rubicon without a suspension lift, adding ground clearance without dramatically altering the center of gravity. Body metal was removed to make room. Three inches were chopped from the windshield frame and a 10-degree rake was added.
Front and rear fender flares were 1-inch wider and higher than a stock Jeep Wrangler. A new one-piece carbon-fiber hood with a Jeep CJ-like power dome and a new drop-down tailgate complete the exterior design. The paint is Red Eye No. 3, a custom color.
Inside, a new roll cage is neatly tied directly into the frame rails. The spare tire is relocated to the cargo floor and a custom cargo rack holds extra gear. Custom touches include a color-matched center console and instrument panel. Seats are re-covered with Mopar’s Katzkin leather package. Replacing the carpet is a spray-in truck-bed liner.
Mechanical upgrades came directly out of the Mopar catalog. The Jeep “Lower Forty” has a new 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 engine and a Getrag 238 six-speed manual transmission. Powertrain installations were handled by Burnsville Off-Road using an AEV 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 conversion kit. The Mopar-supplied Dana 44 front axle and a Dana 60 rear axle, fitted with 5.38 gears and ARB air lockers, were assembled by Dynatrac.
Sunrider and Freedom Tops
A new, three-piece modular hardtop – Jeep’s Freedom Top™ – features three removable panels for a variety of open-air driving configurations. The left- and right-front passenger panels may be stored inside the vehicle, while the rear section can remain in place or be removed separately.
“Whether removing one of the Freedom Top panels or flipping back the Sunrider soft top, the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited provides owners the flexibility to conveniently experience open-air driving in less than 30 seconds,” said Donoughe.
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited also features a standard Sunrider™ soft top, which includes a “sun roof” feature as well as the full top-down option. This soft top provides a second open-air option by folding the soft top back completely over the first- and second-row occupants, creating a 55x60-inch sun roof opening – an opening 30 inches longer than the standard 2007 Jeep Wrangler Sunrider top.
Better Off-road Capability: Jeep Wrangler Unlimited for 2007
Even with the additional 20.6-inch wheelbase length, the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited achieves off-road leadership among all SUVs in its class. Superior ground clearance combined with short front and rear overhangs enable Jeep Wrangler Unlimited to navigate the most rigorous off-road trails.
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited features a best-in-class approach angle of 44.4 degrees, breakover angle of 20.8 degrees, and best-in-class 40.5 degree departure angle – all more than worthy of negotiating extreme obstacles. Additionally, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited offers an available electronic-disconnecting front stabilizer bar – Active Sway Bar System (ASBS) – delivering a 28-percent increase in wheel travel.
“A long list of proven 4x4 hardware – essential components among off-road enthusiasts – underscores the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s off-road capabilities,” said Donoughe. “From beefy axles and heavy-duty transfer cases with low gear ratios to locking differentials, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited has more mettle than any other vehicle, and more than enough to conquer a variety of off-road challenges, right out of the box.”
The highly capable underpinnings of Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X and Sahara models include an enhanced Dana 30 front axle and Dana 44 rear axle – each featuring larger pinion shafts, pinion bearings and axle joints for increased durability compared to its predecessor. Engineered to take on the most demanding trails, the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon model features enhanced heavy-duty Dana 44 front and rear axles, which also feature larger pinion shafts, pinion bearings and axle joints.
Providing armor for the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s underbody components are three skid plates – protecting the fuel tank, transfer case and automatic transmission oil pan. Two-wheel-drive Jeep Wrangler Unlimited models feature one skid plate to protect the fuel tank.
Four-wheel-drive Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X and Sahara models feature the second-generation Command-Trac® NV241, part-time, two-speed transfer case, featuring a 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio. An optional Trac-Lok® limited-slip rear differential provides extra torque and grip during low-traction situations.
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon model features an Off-Road Rock-Trac™ NV241 two-speed transfer case with a 4.0:1 low-range gear ratio, as well as electric front- and rear-axle lockers, Active Sway Bar System and 32-inch B.F. Goodrich Off-road tires.
Wrangler Refinement ?
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited features an even more refined on-road experience courtesy of its 116-inch wheelbase, 100-percent stiffer frame, 50-percent stiffer body and refined five-link coil suspension. In addition, new steering and suspension geometry provides precise ride and handling characteristics, while new sound-deadening techniques reduce cabin noise by more than 20 percent.
Ride balance in the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited achieves minimal body lean when cornering and braking due to the five-link coil suspension’s new upper and lower control arms and full-width forged-steel track bars. Also, lower suspension spring rates provide a softer, more comfortable on-road ride.
Standard on the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X model, low-pressure twin-tube shock absorbers are tuned to match softer coil rates, achieving optimum balance between advanced on-road handling and rugged off-road capability. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara and Rubicon models feature standard high-pressure monotube shocks, utilizing Low Speed Tunable (LST) valve technology.
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s new recirculating-ball steering configuration features a robust cross-car steering linkage system, providing the stiffest possible steering linkage in a solid-axle vehicle. A decreased scrub radius significantly reduces steering wheel inputs, such as bump steer from uneven road surfaces.
Standard on the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is an Electronic Stability Program (ESP), which aids the driver in maintaining vehicle directional stability in severe driving maneuvers on any type of surface. ESP features three modes – “full on,” “full off” and “partial on.”
Even More Powerful and Fuel-efficient Engine
New on all 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited models is a 3.8-liter overhead valve V-6 engine, with 202 horsepower and 237 lb.-ft. of torque – producing more horsepower and torque than its predecessor with improved fuel economy. A standard six-speed manual transmission or an available four-speed automatic transmission is offered.
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited features a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs. and an optional towing package that includes a 4.10 axle ratio, class III trailer hitch and two front tow hooks.
For key diesel markets outside North America, a diesel engine will also be available – for the first time in a Jeep Wrangler – with a five-speed manual transmission.
Jeep design and styling
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited takes on a radical four-door open-air design with Jeep-signature design cues – classic round headlamps, seven-slot grille, trapezoidal wheel flares and exposed forged hinges merged with Wrangler Unlimited’s longer wheelbase, front-hinged rear doors, exposed B-pillar and larger sport bar – creating a stance that commands attention like no other Wrangler in its 65-year history.
“The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited extends Jeep design cues into a four-door, open-air form that is unmistakably Jeep Wrangler and unmistakably new,” said Trevor Creed, Senior Vice President – Design. “The Wrangler Unlimited’s appearance is simple and pure, yet signals a new design approach to this familiar icon. Every angle reflects its boldly expanded posture and adventurous spirit, constructed in a head-turning silhouette that is authentic Jeep.”
Several Jeep concept vehicles – the 1997 Jeep Dakar, 2004 Jeep Rescue and 2005 Jeep Gladiator – that explored the combination of added space and utility with Wrangler’s rugged off-road character, inspired the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s design.
The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s 20.6-inch longer wheelbase with full-framed or half rear doors is encompassed by taut lines, sharp angles and planar surfaces, appearing not so much styled as constructed. The result is a design that is simple, strong and purpose-built, giving Wrangler Unlimited a military quality: upright and rugged, and imposing without being intimidating.
The interior design of the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited draws from the exterior, with gray and khaki colors and new grain patterns delivering a technical appearance with geometric themes.
The instrument panel features an analog instrument cluster, four round airflow registers, six speakers and a 32-percent-larger locking glove box. Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s tweeter speakers are located on top of the instrument panel and face each opposing occupant for optimal left- and right-channel clarity.
The center stack provides easy-to-reach controls for audio system, HVAC, power window and Electronic Stability Program (ESP) switches. An available 368-watt Alpine stereo with optional navigation system is located at the top of the center stack for better visibility. Radios feature an auxiliary jack for portable MP3 compatibility.
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited’s available navigation system provides real-time guidance and a virtual breadcrumb trail that shows where the vehicle has driven off-road, enabling the driver to retrace the route and return to the trailhead.
Safety and Security
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited includes the highest level of safety features in the vehicle’s history:
- Advanced Multi-stage Air Bag System: This system inflates with a force appropriate to the severity of an impact. It includes the occupant classification system (OCS)
- Anti-lock-braking System: Electronic sensors help detect impending wheel lockup. The standard ABS system offers improved steering control under extreme braking and/or slippery conditions
- Brake Assist: The vehicle senses a panic brake condition and applies maximum braking power, providing the shortest possible stopping distance
- Child Seat Anchor System: Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH) make it easier to install compatible aftermarket child seats in the rear seat
- Electronic Roll Mitigation: A system that observes and monitors the vehicle speed and steering rate to estimate the potential for a rollover situation. If necessary, the engine torque is reduced and a short burst of full braking is applied to the appropriate wheel to immediately limit lateral force, providing improved roll stability
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP): ESP aids the driver in maintaining vehicle directional stability, providing oversteer and understeer control to maintain vehicle behavior on various road surfaces. This standard feature has three settings, allowing the driver more control over the vehicle during spirited driving
- Energy-absorbing Steering Column: Manual-adjust collapsing steering column includes two hydroformed coaxial tubes that move relative to each other, which allows the column to move forward and provide more energy absorption during an impact
- Occupant Classification System (OCS): Measures conditions for activation or deactivation of the passenger-side front air bag based upon the weight of the occupant
- Pretensioners: During an impact, the impact sensors initiate front seat belt pretensioners to immediately remove slack from seat belts, which reduces the forward movement of the occupant’s head and torso
- Seat-mounted Side Air Bags: Available seat-mounted side air bags extend protection to driver and front passenger
- Side-impact Door Beams: Door beams are made of high-strength steel mounted in the vehicle’s doors to help prevent passenger compartment intrusion
Hot on the trails of the newly introduced 2007 Jeep Compass, 2007 Jeep Wrangler and 2007 Jeep Patriot, the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited again underscores the brand’s commitment to its core attributes of freedom, adventure, mastery, authenticity and capability with its first-ever four-door convertible.
The Jeep Wrangler customer is truly unique in that many have wanted a Wrangler for years. “I’ve always wanted one” is a commonly expressed sentiment. The 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited effectively grows Jeep Wrangler’s appeal by offering authentic off-road capability to those who desire more space and versatility.
Jeep’s global lineup now includes Jeep Commander, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Liberty (Cherokee outside North America), Jeep Compass, Jeep Patriot and the legendary Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.
The Jeep brand continues to gain momentum, with 2005 sales up 12 percent over 2004. More than 400,000 Jeep SUVs were sold in the U.S. last year.
The Jeep Trail Rated badge on the 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited verifies that the vehicle has been designed to perform in a variety of challenging off-road conditions identified by five key off-road performance categories: traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation and water fording.
Jeep Trail Rated is an industry-leading methodology that objectively measures and consistently predicts off-road performance for all Jeep vehicles. Through a combination of natural and controlled field tests, as well as computer-simulated environments, Jeep Trail Rated provides a repeatable and consistent measurement of off-road performance for Jeep vehicles. Only Jeep vehicles are Trail Rated.
