Jeep Unveils 2nd Wrangler Buzz Model, the 2026 Wrangler Whitecap

Honoring 85 uninterrupted years, the Jeep brand continues its Twelve 4 Twelve celebration with the reveal of its second exclusive Wrangler buzz model: the Jeep Wrangler Whitecap. The new Wrangler Whitecap draws inspiration from the classic CJ-Universal and its iconic Arctic White top, a design that has long symbolized individuality and adventure, company officials stated in a press release. This modern interpretation carries that tradition forward, offered exclusively on Sahara and Rubicon trims.

Following the November debut of the 2026 Jeep Wrangler Moab 392, the Whitecap brings a fresh look to the lineup.

“The Jeep Wrangler Whitecap is more than a special edition; it’s a statement,” said Bob Broderdorf, CEO of the Jeep brand. “It honors Jeep brand heritage while introducing a striking two-tone look that turns heads on any trail. Just like every model in the Twelve 4 Twelve series, Whitecap is designed to stand out—a true tip of the hat to the brand’s legendary legacy. With more ways to personalize and customize than ever before, we’re giving Jeep owners the freedom to make their Wrangler truly their own.”

2026 Jeep Wrangler Whitecap Is Built to Conquer Any Terrain

The 2026 Jeep Wrangler Whitecap combines the advanced technology of the Sahara and Rubicon models with legendary 4×4 capability, noted the release. Powered by either the 2.0L turbo or 3.6L engine, every Whitecap delivers Jeep 4×4 performance through the brand-exclusive Selec-Trac part-time or full-time transfer cases.

Other notable features include:

• Bright White painted hardtop roof
• Bright White painted iconic seven-slot grille, with body-color fender flares (standard on Sahara and packaged on Rubicon)
• Bright White 1941 side stripe decal (Sahara and Rubicon)/Bright White hood decal on Rubicon
• Optional Sky One-Touch powertop in Bright White accent.

Orders for the new 2026 Jeep Wrangler Whitecap are now open.
