@FCA: Jeep® Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition Brings Heritage Style to Legendary Capability to Canada

January 12, 2026 , Windsor, Ontario –  The Jeep® brand continues its yearlong Twelve 4 Twelve celebration of 85 years of off-road leadership with the introduction of its third exclusive model, the Jeep Wrangler 85th Anniversary. This special edition pays tribute to the brand’s legendary heritage while delivering modern capability and premium touches designed for adventure. 

Following the November debut of the Wrangler Moab 392 and the December reveal of the 2026 Wrangler Whitecap, the Wrangler 85th Anniversary edition marks a milestone moment, combining distinctive design elements with premium features for an unmistakable look and feel. 

“For 85 uninterrupted years, every Jeep vehicle has been built with purpose, designed first for capability, engineered for real world use and shaped by the needs of those who rely on it,” said Bob Broderdorf, Jeep brand CEO. “The Wrangler 85th Anniversary special edition reflects this enduring mindset, translating into thoughtful details and authentic design cues that honour the past while continuing to deliver confidence and capability for today’s adventures.” 

The Wrangler 85th Anniversary special edition makes its mark with a bold nod to Jeep heritage, with plaid taking the spotlight, channeling generations of hardworking tradition, outdoor freedom and classic style for modern adventure. Inside, exclusive plaid seat inserts proudly feature an 85th seat tag, complemented by matching plaid accents on the instrument panel and mid bolster for a look that is both adventurous and iconic. These heritage-inspired details are paired with exclusive touches, such as an 85th shifter medallion and cupholder plaque, along with durable Berber floor and cargo mats designed to stand up to life on and off the trail.  
 
Exterior highlights include exclusive Steel Oxide-painted 17-inch wheels, bronze tow hooks, Blue Agave 85th anniversary badges and decals, and body-colour fender flares for a refined yet rugged stance. 

Other notable features include:  

  • Standard Convenience Group with heated front seats and heated steering wheel, remote start and keyless passive entry 
  • Standard Alpine premium audio
  • Standard deep‑tint windows, Gorilla Glass windshield, heated mirrors and automatic headlamps 
  • Standard LED headlamps, LED daytime running lamps and LED fog lamps
  • Standard advanced safety technologies, including adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and advanced braking 

Optional upgrades include a black molded-in colour hardtop or a body-color hardtop, providing additional personalization options straight from the factory. Customers may also upgrade to all-terrain tires at no cost, furthering capability and appearance. 

Also debuting is the Jeep Gladiator 85th Anniversary edition, which brings the same heritage-inspired plaid design cues and commemorative details to the brand’s only open-air pickup, giving customers even more ways to celebrate 85 years of legendary Jeep capability.
