The JL/JLU Wrangler will offer more connectivity and better on-board infotainment system than ever before in a Wrangler, with multiple touchscreen options.
We can confirm that like the recently announced 2017 Jeep Compass, the JL/JLU Wrangler will feature the latest 4th generation Uconnect systems. The base system will feature a 5" touchscreen (the only one that will retain some physical radio buttons), the intermediate system will be a 7" touchscreen and the largest option will be a 8.4" touchscreen (available with or without navigation system).
The 8.4 inch screen will come with the new Off-Road Pages feature (recently introduced in the 2017 Grand Cherokee). The Off-Road Pages will provide useful info regarding the JL Wrangler’s off-road systems, including wheel articulation, transfer case status, pitch and roll, transmission temperature, suspension, and monitor the basic essentials like oil and coolant temperatures, oil pressure and battery voltage. We've posted a good video below briefly demonstrating Off-Road Pages in action.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto will be included. And don't worry, none of the screen eliminate the physical climate control knobs.
As a preview, here is how the three touchscreen sizes look and compare in the Jeep Compass.
Here some videos showing the 4th gen Uconnect system in action on the 8.4" screen.
