American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) already contributes to vehicles like the\u00a0Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison,\u00a0GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X AEV Edition,\u00a0GMC Canyon AT4X AEV Edition, and other rugged off-roaders. The company is now expanding the availability of its upgrades by offering the\u00a0Upcountry, Upcountry+, and Level II upfit programs for the 2024 Jeep Wrangler.<\/p>\n
The Upcountry pack is available for the Wrangler Rubicon and Willys and adds\u00a0$7,476 to their price. It includes a 2.0-inch suspension lift, larger fender flares, and a spare tire relocation kit. The truck rides on AEV Pintler wheels with a satin-black finish and\u00a035-inch BFGoodrich All-Terrain T\/A KO2 tires. The ProCal unit corrects the speedometer and gear ratio for the larger rubber.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Upcountry+ is also for the\u00a0Rubicon and Willys and costs\u00a0$11,599. In addition to the parts from the regular\u00a0Upcountry pack, this one has a new front bumper, skid plate, and non-winch cover plate. There’s also an off-road camera relocation kit.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0Level II is at the top of the range and costs $20,049. It’s exclusively for the Rubicon. The package adds to the\u00a0Upcountry+ by including AEV’s 2.5-inch DualSport suspension with Bilstein 5100 shocks and a steering damper. The SUV has 37-inch BFGoodrich All-Terrain T\/A KO2 tires on\u00a0AEV Savegre II wheels. The upfitter also adds a new rear bumper and tire carrier.<\/p>\n
The Level II upgrade for the\u00a0Rubicon 4xe plug-in hybrid is\u00a0$22,099 and adds a\u00a04.56 gear upgrade.<\/p>\n

The AEV upgrade packages will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Buyers can order the improvements from dealers. After the initial assembly at the\u00a0Toledo Assembly Complex, the SUVs go to AEV for the additional work.<\/p>\n
AEV previously worked with Jeep for the 2023\u00a0Wrangler Rubicon 20th Anniversary by offering the SUV with its Level II package. The limited-run model sold out in just two hours. The companies decided to expand the availability of the offerings this year.<\/p>\n
