Jeep has unveiled a new line-up to commemorate its 75th birthday. Called the 75th Anniversary special-edition, all models will come with low gloss bronze wheels, bronze and orange exterior accents, seats embossed with a 75th Anniversary logo or ombre mesh fabric and a 75th Anniversary exterior badge.
Starting off with the Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited. Exterior items include front and rear tow hooks, steel bumpers in low gloss bronze in the front and rear, a body-colour grille with low gloss bronze grille throats and headlamp rings, a power dome hood with functional air vents and off-road rock rails. It also gets 17-inch wheels wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armour tyres.
Inside, one can find a 6.5-inch touchscreen head unit with Uconnect handsfree phone and SiriusXM radio. Other items include a rear locker, Jeep Command-Trac 4×4 transfer case with a 2.72:1 ratio, Dana 30 front axle and heavy-duty Dana 44 rear axle, a 3.21 or an optional 3.73 axle ratio as well as 75th Anniversary grab handles, all as standard.
Next up is the Jeep Cherokee, which receives badges, trim accents and 18-inch wheels, all of which come in low gloss bronze. A dual-pane sunroof is also present, while the interior features Gode-Tex (not a typo) seat insert cloth with tangerine accent stitching.
As for the Jeep Grand Cherokee (based on the Cherokee Latitude model), the special-edition gets a new front fascia, grille and headlamps and gloss black body accents. Tow hooks, grille rings, fog lamp bezels, a lower fascia applique, roof rails and badges as well as a choice of either 18- or 20-inch wheels, all come in a low gloss bronze colour too. Heated leather seats with Gode-Tex cloth inserts, tangerine stitching and a 75th Anniversary logo also feature.
Over on the special edition Jeep Renegade (based on the Latitude variant), a host of items can be found outside. The additions include, grille surrounds, fog lamp bezels, tail lamp applique, badges and rear fascia, also in low gloss bronze. The SUV also gets a MySky open-air roof system along with a Beats audio system.
Onwards to the Jeep Compass. The 75th Anniversary model is decked out with a front fascia applique, rear step pad, badges, tow hooks (for the 4×4 models), 18-inch wheels and roof rails, all in low gloss bronze. Inside, it gets a light bronze interior bezel paint, remote start, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and a power sunroof, as stock.
Last but not least, the Jeep Patriot, based on the Sport variant, completes the brand’s celebratory line-up. Save for 17-inch wheels, the Patriot receives the same low gloss bronze exterior items and interior enhancements as the Compass.
