Chrysler has decided to bring the 2012 Jeep Wrangler Mojave, a tribute payed to the renowned, rugged Mojave Trail, to the 2011 edition of the New York International Auto Show. Following from the successful "Islander," "Mountain" and "Call of Duty: Black Ops Edition" models, the Mojave offers everything enthusiasts looking for factory-customized vehicles could want.

"The Mojave Trail is known for expeditions, exploration and a rugged environment that features elevation, sand, canyons, a river crossing and hill climbs – the perfect landscape for the Jeep Wrangler,"
said Mike Manley, President and CEO - Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. "By creating the Jeep Wrangler Mojave, we are able to deliver another specialized vehicle that Jeep enthusiasts will love, while drawing new customers into Jeep showrooms."

Based on the Wrangler Sport model, the Mojave's has a unique new desert theme that sets it apart from anything else on the road today. The exterior has been customized with a special paintjob that is paired with a body-colored hardtop and fender flares, plus lizard decals on the hood and rear, and the Sahara model's side steps.

The 2012 Mojave also gets aggressive Wrangler Rubicon tire and wheel package, with mineral gray 17-inch wheels shod with 32-inch tires, so you will tower over any sedan at the traffic lights. Finishing touches come in the form of a black fuel filler door and taillamp guards.

Open the door, and you are greeted by dark leather seats with lizard embroidery, so you will get the feeling this is no ordinary cold-blooded off-roader. Unique driftwood surrounds the vents, front-passenger grab handle, steering-wheel spokes and door-handle inserts.

The Jeep Wrangler Mojave is available in Sahara Tan, Bright White and Black, retailing at $29,195, excluding $750 destination, in the US.
