2022 Models - Press Release Dates

[TxJeepers]

That is $oo true...lol
Since I found this site I read so many posts that one post talks me into ordering now and the next has me thinking ahh wait another week...lol

If I order a 2022, it will be my ninth brand new Wrangler since my first in 1999, a TJ Sport. Yes, every one of them cost more than the last one.

There was a Jeep Press Event at the Chicago Auto Show. They said the Xtreme Recon will start production next month. I think the Xtreme Recon package starts with the 2022s? That might mean the 2022s start next month? I guess we will see next month...

They also mention Uconnect5 having 5X faster processing.

The only guarantee about the '22 is that it will cost more.

The Rubicon will definitely cost more if you order today. You get more though. You just don't get a choice. This month anyway. The $4K Xtreme Recon package is required on all Rubicons orders this month. That was reported by a few forum members who are ordering.

No, the Xtreme Recon now shows up on July 6, 2021 order guides. If 2022 models were starting next month we would not have seen a July order guide for the 2021 model year. In the past Jeep will have a cut off date for new orders, they build out the orders for that model year which usually is a couple months. Usually after the order cut date, a new model year order guide will come out shortly after. Multiple source say December 6th is the day 2022 start production. Based on the past, the 2022 order guide will likely be in October.

Any chance the xtreme recon package will be available for the 4xe?

I don't know?

It shows up on this forum a week or two later. I am not sure of the source.



A lot of automobile prediction websites are notoriously bad at predictions. I highly doubt 37" tire will be available. Jeep doesn't even have 35" tires, which would be the next logical step up. The rest of options besides the winch are available in the Diesel, Rubicon or the 392 already. May be it will trick down. Given the trending of the price increases the last 4 months, it is likely Jeep will continue to raise the price.

I would expect a couple different colors, a price increase and some option variations. Maybe a new option, maybe a special model. The could also restrict options to higher selling models with semiconductor shortage. Some manufacturers are making much more of the higher level higher level vehicles to make up for lost sales.

XR package will have 35”

XR package will have 35”

LOL, I wrote that post in April well before the XR package was available.

I’m sorry if this has been answered already. From my research here it looks like new year models hit the dealers between august and October. That’s great. Here’s what I want to know.

What’s the earliest/common time frame new model year changes/updates are released to the press? May? June?

Im in the market for a new car and would like to know if there’s anything major coming like U Connect 5. If so, I can wait another 6 months from today. If not, I may just buy something now. Thanks!

I just received my 2021 model 4XE. I need to go pick it up tomorrow. I should cancel the order and order a 2022 model. it's already 1 year old.

I’m not following. Even if you order October 4th 2021 you’ll be lucky to have it by mid December. Since it’s luck the draw, it could also be as long as February or March 2022. Take your 4xe, use it for now and place an order for a 2022 model. Sell it the 4xe when you take delivery for the 2022 . Also, 22 is going to be a short run year with little to no changes.

How do we know its a short model year run? Is that because there is a refresh for 2023?

Fact check source?

Most of us here are assuming it will be a short run. That’s all.

Could it run all the way through till December 2022? Sure! Most of us here assume it will be a short run. Geez lol.
