Speaking of SUVs, Jeep must be mentioned. All the models under the brand have excellent off-road capabilities, reliable mechanical performance, and at the same time have the wildness and roughness of American off-road vehicles. The Wrangler is the most complete inheritance of the essence of American off-road vehicles in the Jeep brand. Its roughness, durability, excellent off-road capability, and its advocating mechanical rather than electronic characteristics also make it have loyal customers. When you mention the Wrangler, you have to talk about the originator of the SUV-Willis.
Recently, a German tuning company called Geiger Cars has launched a Willys-inspired Wrangler. In fact, due to the sacred status of the Jeep Wrangler in the hearts of off-roaders, the market can be said to be full of modifications for it, with different styles and various heights, especially in the United States, the birthplace of Jeep, where the modification culture is extremely strong. I believe that those who have seen this year’s SEMA modified auto show can understand what the Jeep Wrangler means to them. So what kind of sparks will this German company collide with the Wrangler? In what form will the Willis style be presented?
Geiger Cars named this modified version of the Wrangler “Geiger-Willys”, which intuitively shows a tribute to the Willys MA model that originated in 1940. Subsequently, this two-door version of the JK Wrangler was painted in military-style olive green from beginning to end, and the letters and Logo on the engine cover and the side of the body seemed to draw people back into World War II.
From the front of the body, the front bumper style is very similar to another famous modification company Rugged Ridge, which is equipped with an electric winch. The tire size is 265/70 R17, and the rear is also equipped with a reinforced spare tire, and the exhaust system has also been modified to imitate the exhaust sound of the time. The steering wheel and seats in the car also use olive green color matching to coordinate with the whole car. In terms of power, this “Geiger-Willys” modified version is still equipped with the reliable 3.6-liter V6 engine with a maximum output of 284 horsepower and a peak output torque of 347 Nm. It is matched with a six-speed Automatic/manual gearbox.
As for the price, Geiger Cars said that each unit is about 80,700 US dollars (equivalent to about 530,000 RMB), and this Geiger-Willys Wrangler only provides 10 units, which is worth buying for collectors or Jeep enthusiasts. Today, when comfort and luxury are emphasized, the Wrangler still maintains those seemingly too simple designs and “rough” interiors, still uses a non-load-bearing body, and still cannot touch luxury, but the Wrangler has extraordinary off-road capabilities Ability, this ability allows the Wrangler to be fearless in a cruel environment.
