Jeep Wrangler Pickup to Offer a Folding Softtop

–

We’re patiently awaiting the official unveiling of the 2018 JL-generation Jeep Wrangler, set to make its debut this week at the Los Angeles auto show. But over the long weekend, we got a little tidbit on what might be the most anticipated version of the new Wrangler: the Jeep pickup truck, due in 2019.

Automotive News reported, citing a source with direct knowledge, that the Jeep Wrangler pickup will offer an optional fold-down canvas softtop along the lines of the unit available on the two- and four-door Wrangler.

The report said that the Wrangler pickup will go into production in November 2018 at the same Toledo, Ohio, facility where the current JK-generation Wrangler is built. Rumor has it that the Jeep pickup will wear the Scrambler name, a reference to a rare and highly sought-after pickup variant of the Jeep CJ that featured a removable hardtop.

Our hunch is that the Wrangler pickup will be most popular in hardtop format but will offer the same removable roof and doors as the regular Wrangler. Regardless, we can’t wait to see the new Jeep pickup truck.
