Last year, we learned of Jeep India's plan to assemble the Wrangler locally, and the Indian-made model is now set to hit the road next month. Jeep India will launch a locally assembled Jeep Wrangler on March 15th and it will be sold in India as a completely knocked unit (CKD) instead of a fully built unit (CBU). The Jeep Wrangler 2021 will be assembled at the Ranganjaon facility and prices are expected to drop once it enters domestic production. Jeep India has also announced an investment of Rs. 180 crore in our market, part of which will go towards the local manufacturing of the Wrangler.rnrn
