Heritage-inspired special edition pays tribute to the legendary 1941 Willys MB with exclusive ‘41 Green’ paint and period-correct styling cues.
Limited to just 41 units in India, with Rs 2 lakh worth of standard accessories and optional adventure-ready upgrades available.
The Jeep Wrangler has always worn its military lineage with pride, but the Willys '41 Special Edition takes this connection to another level entirely. This isn't simply another trim variant with a few extra decals slapped on; it's a carefully considered homage to the vehicle that quite literally created the Jeep brand.
What Makes It Special?
At the heart of the Willys '41's appeal is authenticity. The exclusive '41 Green' exterior shade directly references the military olive drab worn by those original wartime workhorses. It's a colour you won't find on any other Wrangler variant, making this special edition instantly recognisable.
The '1941' bonnet decal serves as a constant reminder of the vehicle's heritage, marking the year when the Willys MB transformed from prototype to production reality.
Kit and Caboodle
Standard equipment worth Rs 2 lakh comes included, featuring motorized side steps, upgraded grab handles for easier ingress and egress, all-weather floor mats, and front and rear dashboard cameras.
For those seeking the full adventure experience, an optional accessories package priced at Rs 3.6 lakh, notably Rs 1 lakh cheaper than last year, adds a roof carrier with an integrated side ladder and a Sunrider rooftop for open-air motoring.
The Mechanical Package
Under the bonnet, the Willys '41 carries over the standard Rubicon's proven 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, producing 272 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels through a full-time four-wheel-drive system, ensuring the special edition retains all the legendary off-road prowess that made the Wrangler famous. It's mechanically identical to the regular Rubicon, which means buyers are paying a Rs 2 lakh premium purely for the heritage styling and exclusive accessories package.
Rarity Factor
With just 41 units allocated for India, a figure that directly references the vehicle's namesake year, this represents one of the most exclusive Wranglers ever offered in the country. Last year's batch of 30 units reportedly sold out within seven days, suggesting demand for heritage-inspired special editions remains robust among enthusiasts and collectors.
