What could be more exciting than a fresh snowpack and the four-wheel-drive 2017 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited Winter Edition? How about the addition of a dogsled team and professional snowboarder Chase DeMeulenaere?
2017 X Games Aspen, a celebration of winter action sports and music, begins January 26 on Aspen, Colorado’s Buttermilk Mountain. The Jeep brand will be there for all the festivities, but we’ve decided to take the scenic route on our way to the slopes. Fortunately, we have sled dogs by our side, and the off-road capability of the 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Winter edition to carry us to the summit. The 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Winter was designed with winter athletes in mind — those who tackle the mountain’s snowy challenges and inclines with don’t-hold-back attitude and eye-catching style, athletes like Chase and his … driver.
The Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited Winter editions take winter head-on with trail-conquering features like premium off-road rock rails, steel bumpers, BFG KO2 All-Terrain Tires, and the Jeep Command-Trac® 4×4 System. These special-edition winter Jeep Wrangler models look and act the part, ready to conquer a snow-capped mountain, with black McKinley leather-trimmed seat bolsters with sport mesh inserts for comfort and support, heated front seats with diesel gray accent stitching, and piano black front and rear door grab handles and vent rings. Perfect for getting a snowboarder up the mountain pass, and for keeping the sled dogs running.
