August 30, 2023 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The Jeep® brand today announced the sale of the five-millionth Jeep Wrangler, a 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Rubicon 20th Anniversary Edition in Earl exterior paint, which was bought by a customer in Camden, New Jersey. The owner will receive $5,000 worth of Jeep Performance Parts (JPP) by Mopar and lifetime Jeep Wave customer care benefits.

This milestone achievement for the brand coincides with the introduction of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, which will be sold in markets around the world, and the launch of the “Famous for Freedom” global marketing campaign, featuring the celebrated 1995 track, “California Love.”

The Jeep Wrangler is the icon of the brand and one of the most recognizable nameplates in the industry, and has been since its unveiling at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show as a 1987 model, replacing the Jeep CJ and continuing the legacy established by the original 1941 Willys MB.

“With 5 million Wranglers sold, the Jeep brand continues to grow, fueled by the unwavering passion of the Jeep global community,” said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. “With legendary 4x4 capability, open-air-freedom and a timeless design, the Wrangler embodies the spirit and the soul of the Jeep brand.

“More than 80% of the 5 million Wranglers sold since 1986 are still on the road, having fun out there and showcasing the amazing staying power of the vehicle. Our new 2024 Wrangler raises the bar once again as the most capable Wrangler yet, with more technology, safety features and refinement,” Morrison added.

Five Generations of a Global Icon
The very first Jeep Wrangler, with the model code YJ, entered into production line 37 years ago at the American Motors Corporation factory. The YJ went on to sell 630,000 units between 1987 and 1995.

It was followed by the TJ in 1996, the JK in 2006 and the JL in 2017, each new generation building on a legendary history through an unmatched combination of off-road capability and authentic Jeep design.

Since the Wrangler YJ’s introduction as a single two-door model with two engine options – a 2.5-liter four cylinder and a 4.2-liter inline six cylinder – each subsequent iteration of Wrangler has been designed to be even more refined and comfortable for daily use, while providing customers with the world’s most off-road capable and most iconic SUV.

Today, the all-new 2024 Jeep Wrangler offers more capability, more advanced technology features and more refinement than ever before, with a lineup that includes Sport, Sport S, Sahara, Willys, Rubicon, new Rubicon X, High Altitude and Rubicon 392.

From the 49 MPGe electrified 4xe plug-in hybrid to the V-8-powered 470-horsepower Rubicon 392, the new 2024 Jeep Wrangler offers the most diverse powertrain options in the off-road segment, giving Wrangler customers the ability to choose the propulsion system that best suits their lifestyle.

The 2024 Jeep Wrangler arrives in North American dealerships this quarter.

Found out the fuses weren't properly seated...

Dealership probably dumped in 6 quarts of oil, cracked the plastic filter housing, cross-threaded the drain plug and charged $20 to rotate the spare during the "free" lifetime Jeep Waves. That poor fifth-millionth Wrangler never stood a chance 😬

I highlighted some discrepancies of note, detailed below:

1. How does Stellantis know 80% of the 5 million Wranglers sold since 1986 are still on the road? I could understand the JL and possibly JK due to wireless technology... but how would they know how many TJ's and YJ's are still on the road?

2. It looks like Stellantis is counting the first generation Wrangler as the YJ introduced in 1986. 2nd would be TJ. 3rd was JK. 4th is JL. The mild refresh for 2024 does not count as "all new" and definitely doesn't count as the 5th generation of Wrangler.

What do you all think?

PS--The $5000 of free JPP stuff is a nice bonus for the owner. However, the lifetime Jeep Wave customer care are a debatable benefit.

Vehicle registration records. This is rather easy to figure out although there is likely some extrapolation for international sales.

Just the marketing department sticking in their two cents of BS like they always have. Let it go.

[...] are still on the road?
Hopefully, a few of them are off-the-road off-roading, too!

I think it's cool that they sold number 5M and 4M are still there. I am sure they can figure this out, the data exists in various DMV's. Whether it is tabulated or estimated, it is still cool to think about.

"a 2.5-liter four cylinder and a 4.2-liter inline six cylinder" The YJ was also offered with 4.0L fuel injected 6 cylinder in 1992 until the end of the run. The 4.2L was a BBD carbureted nightmare.
