Detroit, Michigan - The Jeep Wrangler, known as the TJ in Canada, is now available in two distinct configurations - original Wrangler and the new longer Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.

The 15 inch longer 2004½ Jeep Wrangler Unlimited delivers 13 inches more cargo space and two inches more second row seating space for more passenger comfort.

"It has been more than two decades since we offered customers a choice in their wheelbase size with the CJ5 and CJ7 Universals," said Jeff Bell, Vice President - Chrysler/Jeep Marketing, Chrysler Group. "We're always listening to our customers by building on the Jeep heritage and giving them truly innovative products that others could never match.

"The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is an extension of the original Wrangler buyer group, and will appeal more broadly to younger buyers and those who select this as their primary, secondary or third vehicle with the added versatility."

The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited will be sold in North American markets only.
