If you are looking for a vehicle that can take you anywhere and do anything, you should check out the new 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys. This model is one of the latest additions to the Wrangler lineup, which has been updated with more capability, technology, and safety features for the 2024 model year. The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys pays tribute to the original WWII Jeep that started it all while offering modern amenities and performance that make it a formidable off-road machine.
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys is based on the Sport trim level but adds some unique features that set it apart from the rest of the Wrangler family. For starters, it has a distinctive black grille with slimmer slats that give it a more aggressive look. It also has black 17-inch wheels with 32-inch mud-terrain tires that provide more traction and ground clearance on rough terrain. The Willys model also comes with a standard Trac-Lok limited-slip rear differential that enhances grip in low-traction situations.
But the 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys is not just about looks. It also has some serious off-road credentials that make it a worthy successor to the original Willys MB. It comes with the Command-Trac part-time four-wheel-drive system that allows you to shift between two- and four-wheel drive on the fly. It also has a two-speed transfer case with a low-range gear ratio of 2.72:1 that enables you to crawl over rocks and obstacles with ease. The Willys model also benefits from the use of rugged tubular steel rock rails that protect the body from potential damage while out on the trail.
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine that delivers 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Depending on your preference, you can choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed automatic transmission. The V6 engine also features stop-start engine technology that helps save fuel by shutting off the engine when the vehicle comes to a stop. The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys has an EPA-estimated fuel economy rating of 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway for manual transmission and 18 mpg city and 23 mpg highway for the automatic transmission.
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Willys is not only capable but also comfortable and safe. It has a new interior that features available power front seats, standard side curtain airbags in the first and second rows, and a standard 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen radio that supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, and wireless charging. The Uconnect system also offers access to various apps and services, such as SiriusXM satellite radio, navigation, Wi-Fi hotspot, and more. The new Jeep Wrangler also comes with standard safety features such as blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-path detection, rear park assist, and a rear backup camera.
