Pune: History, as they say, never really retires — it just upgrades its suspension and comes back with a dash cam. Jeep India has officially reintroduced the Wrangler Willys ’41 Limited Edition, a heritage-inspired tribute to the original 1941 Willys MB, the combat-tested 4×4 that laid the foundation of the Jeep brand’s global reputation.
Returning after the previous Willys ’41 Special Edition sold out nationwide in just seven days, the new Wrangler Willys ’41 arrives with deeper historical detailing, additional premium equipment and extreme exclusivity — with only 41 units allocated for the entire country.
And yes, in a nation where limited editions often mean “limited until next month,” this one genuinely means limited.
A Rolling Tribute to Jeep’s Wartime Roots
The Wrangler Willys ’41 celebrates Jeep’s military origins through distinctive heritage styling. It features exclusive WWII-themed Willys graphics, special design cues and a unique “One of 41” collector’s badge, turning each SUV into what is essentially a factory-built collectible for hardcore off-road enthusiasts and Jeep loyalists.
According to Kumar Priyesh, Business Head and Director – Automotive Brands, Stellantis India, the edition represents more than just styling nostalgia.
“The Willys legacy is the foundation of Jeep’s character. The Wrangler Willys 41 reflects the spirit of the original 1941 Willys MB while blending timeless heritage cues with contemporary engineering, capability and emotional connection that Jeep owners value deeply.”
Built for Real-World Adventure, Not Just Instagram Trails
Beyond heritage aesthetics, the Willys ’41 Limited Edition adds practical upgrades aimed at serious adventure use.
Key enhancements include:
- Motorized side steps for easier entry during real off-road use
- Integrated digital dash cam for added safety and documentation
- Premium accessory package designed for expedition readiness
Jeep is also offering an optional adventure kit featuring:
- Roof carrier with integrated side ladder
- Sunrider rooftop system for enhanced open-air driving
Together, these additions aim to strengthen Wrangler’s reputation as a vehicle that is equally comfortable crawling over rocks, climbing mountain trails or simply dominating weekend highway road trips.
Availability, Pricing and Exclusivity
The Wrangler Willys ’41 Limited Edition will be offered on the Rubicon variant across Jeep dealerships in India.
- Special edition premium: ₹2,00,000 over standard Rubicon
- Optional adventure kit price: ₹3,60,000
- Total production: Strictly limited to 41 units nationwide
Given the previous edition’s one-week sell-out record, prospective buyers may need to move faster than a convoy escaping a desert mission.
A Collector’s Jeep for India’s Hardcore Off-Road Community
With the Willys ’41 2.0, Jeep India isn’t just launching another cosmetic special edition — it is reinforcing the brand’s historical identity while offering a rare collectible for enthusiasts who value authenticity, capability and legacy.
Because sometimes, the best way to celebrate modern engineering… is to salute the machine that started it all.
