Rugged, Protective Style

All of our Wilderness models feature rugged exterior design with tough cladding to protect against rocks and other obstacles. Each vehicle offers available Geyser Blue exterior paint for a bold look that's exclusive to the Wilderness lineup. Eye-catching Anodized Copper finish accents and black exterior trim add unique style and an anti-glare hood decal helps improve your view of the trail.

Up to 9.5 Inches of Ground Clearance

Every Wilderness model features increased ground clearance to help you explore challenging terrain. With up to 9.5 inches of ground clearance, a Wilderness model can rise above rocks, ruts, mud, and snow that would force ordinary vehicles to turn back. The front and rear bumpers on Wilderness models are designed for improved approach and departure angles to help clear large obstacles and steep grades.

Standard Dual-Function X-MODE®

Get customized control over your traction with standard dual-function X-MODE. This traction enhancement system works with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and settings for dirt/snow and deep snow/mud that allow additional wheel slip to power through adverse conditions.
