Jeep® and United Motors Company, - the sole distributor for Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Fiat Professional, Jeep®, Ram and Mopar® in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia - are continuing to support and empower women drivers across the Kingdom with a programme that has been created so that they can experience the “go anywhere, do anything” Jeep range.

 

Throughout February, an all-new Jeep Wrangler along with modified Jeeps owned by members of Jeepers clubs will be displayed at Universities in Jeddah (Betterjee University, from February 4-7), Riyadh (King Faisal University, from February 11-14) and Dammam (Prince Mohammed Bin Fahed University, from February 18-21). 

 

Female students can register to take two very different Jeep test drives - the first is around the University campuses, and the second as part of special family off-road events to be held in the desert where the legendary capability of the Jeep range can be fully demonstrated with the reassurance that expert off-roaders are on hand to give advice and make sure that everything is safely managed.

 

These off-road events, which will be great fun, take place at Jeep Desert Camps in Jeddah (February 9, Bahra area), Riyadh (February 16, Thamana area) and Dammam (February 23, Half Moon area). In addition to the driving, there will also be entertainment and dinner as well as the chance to meet existing Jeep owners.

 

Attendees of the desert off-road camp events will receive a voucher that entitles them to some very special offers, including 5,000 SR discount off the normal showroom price of the all-new Wrangler, a free three year / 60,000 km service contract by Mopar®, 30 % discount on Mopar accessories plus an exclusive “Drive at Ease” 3-year roadside assistance package for female drivers, which is redeemable on the purchase of an all-new Wrangler.

 

And to make things even more exciting, you will also be automatically entered into a draw to win one of six experience of a lifetime prize packages - the chance to fly like a falcon on the Jeep-sponsored Jebel Jais Flight in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE.

 

At 2.83 km long, it’s the world’s longest zipline as certified by Guinness World Records, and zipliners travel at speeds of up to 150 kph at a height of 1,680 metres above sea level. The prize is for the winner and a guest, and includes return flights, transportation and a hotel stay - the lucky winners will be announced at the off-road family events.

 

The undisputed off-road champion and a unique vehicle for everyday urban adventures, the fourth generation of the iconic Jeep Wrangler offers excellent levels of comfort and superior driving dynamics. The all-new Jeep Wrangler is a one-of-a-kind vehicle that writes an exciting new chapter in the legendary history of the Jeep brand, a story which began in 1941.

 

It is with this clear objective that the iconic Jeep Wrangler has been completely renewed while remaining true to itself, with legendary off-road capabilities, authentic Jeep styling and advanced technology features.  

 

The result is the most capable Wrangler ever, courtesy of unmatched technical contents, which, depending on the trim, include two advanced four-wheel drive, active, on-demand full time systems - Selec-Trac and Rock Trac, plus Tru-Lock electric front- and rear-axle lockers, Trac-Lok limited slip differential and electronic front sway-bar disconnect. 

 

From the roughest terrain to city streets, the all-new Jeep Wrangler is perfectly at ease, and delivers a more modern design, that stays true to the original, combined with more open-air freedom and advanced technology features in terms of safety and connectivity. 

 

Its upgraded 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine delivers 285hp @ 6,400 rpm and 347 Nm of torque @ 4,100 rpm, and now features Stop-Start (ESS) as standard equipment. It was engineered to provide a broad torque band with a focus on low-end torque - an essential trait a vehicle with extreme off-road performance levels such as the Wrangler.  

 

The new eight-speed automatic transmission enables the vehicle to optimise engine output while on the trails or enjoying smooth, efficient power delivery at highway speeds. Uniquely suited to the requirements of the all-new Wrangler, the new automatic gearbox delivers unmatched off-road capability. 

 

The all-new Jeep Wrangler is offered in three different trim levels in the Middle East: Sport, Sahara and Rubicon - all available in two- or four-door configuration.
