Plaid with purpose. The 2026 Jeep® Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition marks the third exclusive model in the Twelve 4 Twelve celebration.
The Jeep® brand has launched the Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition, a special model that celebrates 85 years of its off-road heritage. This edition is the third in the yearlong Twelve 4 Twelve celebration, which honors the brand’s legacy of authenticity and purpose-built design. With a starting price of $46,300 (excluding $1,995 destination fee), this limited-run vehicle combines modern features with classic Jeep Americana style.
The Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition follows the recent introductions of the Wrangler Moab 392 and the Wrangler Whitecap, showcasing a blend of distinctive design elements and premium features. According to Bob Broderdorf, CEO of the Jeep brand, “For 85 uninterrupted years, every Jeep vehicle has been built with purpose, designed first for capability, engineered for real-world use, and shaped by the needs of those who rely on it.”
Distinctive Design and Features
This special edition stands out with its tribute to Jeep’s heritage, prominently featuring plaid designs that evoke generations of outdoor freedom and hard work. Inside, the vehicle showcases exclusive plaid seat inserts adorned with an 85th seat tag, complemented by matching accents on the instrument panel. The design also includes an 85th shifter medallion and durable Berber floor mats, designed for both style and practicality.
The exterior boasts exclusive features such as Steel Oxide-painted 17-inch wheels, bronze tow hooks, and Blue Agave badges that highlight the model’s commemorative nature. Additional standard amenities include heated front seats, remote start, and advanced safety technologies like adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning.
Customers can personalize their vehicles with options like a black molded-in color hardtop or a body-color hardtop and can upgrade to all-terrain tires at no additional cost.
Expanding the Celebration
The Jeep Gladiator 85th Anniversary Edition will also be available, reflecting similar design themes and offering customers a unique open-air pickup option. The Gladiator model starts at $45,820 (excluding $1,995 destination fee) and is priced $1,005 above a comparably equipped Sport S Gladiator.
The Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition is available for order now, and additional Jeep models are expected to debut throughout the year as part of the ongoing celebration of the brand’s storied history.
Jeep has long been recognized as a leader in the SUV market, providing exceptional off-road capability and advanced technology. As it approaches its 85th anniversary, the Jeep brand reaffirms its commitment to innovation and adventure, continuing to set the standard for rugged, versatile vehicles designed to meet the needs of its customers.
