To kick off the 2013 model year, Jeep Wrangler debuts a limited-edition model named after one of the most popular off-road destinations in the world – Moab, Utah. The Jeep Wrangler Moab is based on the Wrangler Sahara model and is equipped with hardware popular with off-roading enthusiasts.
Official upgrades include 17-inch Rubicon alloy wheels painted gloss black running new 245/75R17 Goodyear Silent Armor off-road tires.
Unique exterior features on the Wrangler Moab include a Mopar power dome hood, premium rock rails, black fuel filler door. Other exterior touches include the new premium soft top, black wheel arches, a matte black Jeep grille badge and “Moab” decals on the hood. A body-color three-piece hard top is standard.
Interior modifications include black premium leather seats with black stitching, “Moab” embossed instrument panel grab handle, Mopar slush mats and Iron Gray trim on the vent rings, grab handles and steering wheel spokes.
Optional Mopar accessories are available, which include winch capable steel bumpers, tail lamp guards, and front and rear offroad bumpers.
The Jeep Wrangler Moab is available as a four-door Wrangler Unlimited model available in Crush, Rock Lobster, Gecko, Black and Bright White.
The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited MOAB comes with a 2.8L CRD engine.
Jeep® Wins Third Consecutive “Four Wheeler of the Year” Award from Four Wheeler Magazine
The new 2013 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited Moab Edition is the winner of the respected “Four Wheeler of the Year” award from the editors of Four Wheeler magazine.
“The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Moab is an extremely versatile vehicle, and was a hands-down trail favorite of the Four Wheeler judges,” said John Cappa, Four Wheeler editor. “The improved interior comfort, amenities, power and overall performance both on- and off-road make it worthy of being our 2013 Four Wheeler of the Year.” Paying homage to Jeep enthusiasts’ favorite off-roading destination, the Wrangler Unlimited Moab is the off-roader with increased capability.
Testing was conducted over more than a thousand miles on a variety of terrain, including pavement, gravel, dirt, sand, rocks and mud.
“The new Jeep Wrangler Moab edition is a perfect example of listening to our loyal Wrangler owners, who appreciate new levels of capability in a unique package,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO – Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “The Moab edition recognizes a die-hard off-roading destination Jeep owners love, while providing even more capability, including upgraded rock rails. We’re especially pleased that the influential Four Wheeler editors put our latest Jeep Wrangler to the test and clearly recognized its capability.”
The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab Edition’s “Four Wheeler of the Year” award comes a year after the new- for-2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon earned the award, two years after Jeep Grand Cherokee did so, and less than three years after the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon was named the Best 4×4 vehicle of the 2000-2009 decade by Four Wheeler magazine.
The “Four Wheeler of the Year” recognition is the latest in a list of several recent Jeep Wrangler awards. Other recent Wrangler accolades include:
• 4×4 of the Year, Petersen’s 4-Wheel & Off-Road magazine (Moab Edition)
