JK Wrangler
In 2007, the JK Wrangler was released as a complete redesign from the ground up. Available with the traditional 2 door setup, as well as a 4 door option. The Rubicon option is still available, in both 2 and 4 door models, with similar axle upgrades. Readily noticeable changes are the sloping grille, a more swept back windshield, and a more sloped hood, all aimed at improving the aerodynamics. It is also the first wrangler available with power windows and locks. Available overseas is the J8, a military grade variant of the JK. The J8 does not meet US emissions standards for a production vehicle, and is therefore not street legal there.
