The new optional Radar Red and Black leather-trimmed interior grabs attention, and includes standard heated front seats. The exclusive 10th Anniversary Edition logo is boldly embroidered on the front-seat backs, a mark of honor for this mighty trail warrior.
The front passenger grab handle is bolted on and quality stamped with the name that celebrates everything a hard-core 4x4 should be.
The custom badge says it all. There’s nothing tougher than ten years of trail-tested, rock-steady Jeep 4WD off-road Rubicon® love.
For the 10th Anniversary Edition, Rubicon® sports a specially designed hood that supports off-road adventures, thanks to a power dome, side vents, and a special drainage system.
Grab onto slick rocks, wet mud, sand, and deep dirt with equal measure. Standard BFGoodrich® KM2 tires with improved sidewall protection offer a 1/2-inch lift and are widely recognized by enthusiasts for their tough durability, optimized footprint, and tread design.
A bolt-on appearance gives the standard Black Mopar fuel filler door added style and durability. When the authentically tough get going on the Rubicon trail, they’re going in their Rubicon 10th Anniversary Edition, heading to places others only dream of reaching.
