This according to an autonews.com report, which states: "With the news, the design of the next-generation Wrangler -- which must shed weight and improve its aerodynamics to improve its fuel economy -- is beginning to come more fully into view. The SUV will have a lighter, aluminum body and be smaller than the current model. It will have a fixed windscreen with a significant rake to improve its aerodynamics." From this article: http://www.autonews.com/article/20150215/OEM03/302169971/next-gen-wrangler-will-keep-solid-axles

I am so effin glad I get my JK next month.. so frickin glad.

Yes, I agree. I just saw this part and did not realize it was 2015 versus 2016.



I hear you. My concern was how ugly that was and it is hoped that the Italians decide against that. This article is a bit more up to date: http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/...-diesel-hybrid-and-pickup-truck-variants.html

I guess I am still happy though. I like the idea of diesel, but hybrid? It will be interesting to see.
