The 2020 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Recon: A Powerhouse of Off-Road Capability

The Rubicon Recon is back. The new trim level is now available on the 2020 Jeep Wrangler, showcasing striking red and black accents along with serious off-road capability.


Distinctive Features and Design

Jeep offered the Rubicon Recon on the previous JK Wrangler; however, this marks its debut on the new-generation JL model. The trim is equipped with:

  • Standard LED headlights and taillights
  • A Recon badge prominently displayed on the fender
  • Black accents adorning various parts of the exterior, including the grille, hood stripe, and new 17-inch wheels
  • Front and rear steel bumpers with bumper loops
  • Rubicon gray grille accents and headlamp inserts

Color Options and Interior Enhancements

Buyers have a wide selection of exterior colors to choose from, such as:

  • Black
  • Granite Crystal
  • Sting-Gray
  • Billet Silver
  • Ocean Blue
  • Bikini (bright blue)
  • Firecracker Red
  • Punk’n (orange)
  • Hellayella
  • Bright White

Inside the cabin, a striking red theme is evident, featuring red stitching and new red seat belts. Additionally, the Recon models come equipped with a Jeep trail bag for those outdoor adventures.

Performance and Off-Road Features

Like the standard Rubicon, the Recon offers impressive off-road capabilities thanks to:

  • Dana front and rear heavy-duty axles
  • Enhanced off-road rock rails
  • A two-speed transfer case with a 4:0:1 low-range gear ratio
  • Electric front and rear locking differentials
  • A disconnecting front sway bar
  • Standard 33-inch mud terrain tires

However, it’s important to note that this model does not offer a diesel or a gas V-6 option. Instead, all Rubicon Recon models come equipped with Jeep’s 2.0-liter turbo-four engine, featuring mild hybrid technology. This powertrain generates an impressive 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Pricing Insights

As for the pricing of this robust off-road vehicle, according to Jeep’s configurator, two-door models start at $42,875, while four-door models begin at $47,875. In comparison, the standard Rubicon starts at $40,120 for the two-door variant and $43,620 for the four-door configuration.
