Also, it gets a longer list of feature which make it more safer, convenient and comfortable. Some of its main highlights include trailer sway control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, park assist, rear back-up camera, TPMS (Tyre Pressure Management System), 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with CarPlay and Android Auto, keyless entry, cruise control, dual-zone climate control, and much more.
The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon gets its name from the famous 'Rubicon Trail' which is situated near Lake Tahoe in California, USA. This trail is famous for providing a highly demanding 4x4 off-roading experience.
