Jeep buyers eye the Mojito as a costly statement piece: a bright lime‑green shell that screams exclusivity, and a price tag that will sit above the standard ₹66–70 lakh range.
The edition is expected to mirror the Rubicon trim that powers the current Wrangler in India – a 2.0‑litre turbo‑petrol unit, eight‑speed automatic, and full‑time 4WD. No new powertrain or range upgrades have been confirmed, so the focus is on packaging and aesthetics, not on raw performance.
How does the Mojito stack against rivals? The standard Wrangler tops out at ₹70.8 lakh; the Toyota Fortuner sits at ₹1.42 crore, and the Mahindra Thar starts at ₹25 lakh. The Mojito will occupy the upper‑middle segment, offering the same rugged DNA but wrapped in a colour that few will see on a street.
In India, limited‑edition releases are a double‑edged sword: they create buzz but often come with a steep premium. Import duties on high‑end SUVs hover around 28 %, which explains the projected price bump beyond the domestic model.
Bookings are already live on Jeep’s website, but the official launch window remains vague. Enthusiasts can reserve now, though the exact delivery date and allotment numbers are still under wraps.
Keep an eye on the next couple of months for a firm launch date and any possible trim variations—Mojito might arrive in two versions, just like its South Korean counterpart.
The real question for buyers: is the extra ₹5 lakh worth a unique paint job, or should they wait for a future model that blends style with tech? The answer will unfold once the full spec sheet drops.
