These include the introduction of a new infotainment system, the inclusion of standard side airbags, and some mechanical modifications aimed at improving its off-road capabilities., it is worth noting that the current JL Wrangler will continue to be available for a few more years.

A successor known as the J70 is scheduled to be launched in 2028. The J70 will come with plug-in hybrid and all-electric power options, further expanding the Wrangler's capabilities and eco-friendly features.
