Jeep Wrangler 4xe Willys ’41 Blends WWII Spirit With 375 Horsepower
by AutoExpert | 19 November, 2024
Jeep’s Wrangler 4xe Willys ’41 Special Edition is like a love letter to its iconic WWII ancestor, the Willys MB. This $59,930 tribute features olive-drab paint and Drab Blue decals that replicate the stenciled markings of the original Army workhorse from the 1940s.
The retro vibe doesn’t stop there. The 17-inch aluminum wheels are painted to match the body and come fitted with 33-inch all-terrain tires, ready for any adventure.
Inside, and the cabin keeps the nostalgia alive with tan Heritage cloth seats, an olive fabric dashboard insert, and a special ’41 medallion on the shifter. Roof options include a body-color hardtop or Jeep’s Sky One-Touch power roof, with a tan soft top coming soon for that authentic vintage touch. Add let's not overlook that 12.3-inch touchscreen and digital instrument cluster.
In fact, this Willys-inspired Wrangler surpasses the original in every aspect. The 1940s Willys MB relied on a modest 54-hp 2.2-liter engine. Meanwhile, the 2025 Wrangler 4xe Willys packs a 375-hp punch from its hybrid powertrain, which combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with two electric motors. It even offers 21 miles of electric-only range!
