ZR2 is the peak off-road performer-engineered for extreme terrain where Trail Boss is just the starting point.

Key upgrades: Multimatic DSSV dampers (advanced suspension), front and rear electronic locking differentials for maximum traction, specialized off-road cut front bumper, large underbody aluminum skid plates protecting vital components, and massive 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires.

Inside: 13.4-inch color touchscreen, 12.3-inch enhanced Driver Information Center.

ZR2 is for serious enthusiasts tackling rock crawls, deep mud, and demanding backcountry trails. Trail Boss handles typical off-road adventures and weekend exploration comfortably. If you plan extreme terrain regularly, ZR2 justifies its investment. For typical off-road fun, Trail Boss is ideal.
