Jeep Wrangler DIESEL in 2016
« on: January 10, 2013, 10:06:12 AM »
2015– plans to introduce a VM Motori diesel engine in the Wrangler which will run on urea for the environment.

Have been using VM Motori diesel engines in European Jeeps and Minivans for a long time.

Looks like the 2014 Grand Cherokee US model gets a diesel engine.  TOW PIG LOL!

I always said if they ever build a Diesel Wrangler I would bite the bullet. We'll see if they actually bring it to the US

As others have said, I'll believe it when I see it. Land Rover has pulled the same thing for the last 15 years. Bringing diesels to the US.

Also I hope the engine has decent power. Having driven some diesels over in Europe, many of the cheaper cars have an "adequate" engine for flat land. Even a parking deck ramp begins to challenge them (then again the diesel they put in the mercedes cabs over there are completely opposite, who needs coffee when you have a Frankfurt Taxi driver trying to kill you!!). So if they put a decent engine in it, it should be good.

Danny, it will be real easy to pull that cage and drop it in a 2015 right.

Your factory cage isn't even removable!! </LMAO/> That's what makes doing this cage a huge pain. The factory cage is welded to the tub in the rear
