Jeep Revives The Islander Name For Special Edition Wrangler And Renegade

Jeep has introduced the 2021 Wrangler and Renegade Islander.

Designed to combine “upbeat style” with “summer-fun features,” the special editions have unique touches inside and out.

Starting with the Wrangler, the Islander name is making a return after an absence of 11 years. The special edition is based on the Wrangler Sport S and features a unique exterior with Tiki Bob hood decals as well as Rubicon rock rails and 17-inch Rubicon wheels. The model can also be equipped with a white hardtop and an Islander Plus Package that adds a Tiki Bob spare tire cover, grab handles, a cargo liner and a “solid sunbonnet top.”

Interior changes are limited, but buyers will find ceramic white trim and black cloth seats with surf blue stitching as well as embroidered Islander logos. The model also comes equipped with a dual-zone climate control system and a 7-inch Uconnect 4 infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility.
