Just 140 vehicles stand between Japan and the closing of an entire chapter in Jeep Wrangler history. Stellantis Japan began sales of the Rubicon 2-Door Final Edition on September 10 for 8.99 million yen — about $58,500. The manufacturer is blunt about it: this is the final shipment of the current-generation two-door Wrangler to the Japanese market.
A year ago, that ending hardly looked inevitable. In November 2025, Jeep brought 150 two-door Rubicons to Japan at 8.54 million yen. After an economic surcharge took effect in January 2026, the price rose to 8.74 million yen. Now the Final Edition asks another 250,000 yen — roughly 2.9% more. And what does the buyer get for the increase? No technical revolution.
The real value of the farewell series lies in the body style itself and its special trim. The two-door Wrangler is 550 mm shorter than the four-door both overall and in wheelbase, while its minimum turning radius is just 5.3 m. Yet the Rubicon keeps its off-road arsenal intact: the Rock-Trac system, differential locks and a disconnecting front stabilizer bar. The Final Edition adds body-color fender flares and the hardtop from the Rubicon Appearance Package.
The run is split between two colors: 90 vehicles will be finished in Anvil gray and another 50 in Bright White. The Wrangler itself is not disappearing from Japan. What is leaving is the short two-door version of the current generation — the one that stayed closest to the proportions of early Jeeps while also gaining a real advantage on difficult terrain from its shorter wheelbase.
It is fitting that the farewell arrives in Jeep's 85th-anniversary year. Just a month earlier, the brand unveiled the Wrangler 85th Anniversary Edition, but that model is based on the four-door Unlimited Rubicon. Production is limited to 100 vehicles and the price is 9.44 million yen. It feels like a historic turn: once the Final Edition sells out, the Wrangler story in Japan will continue without the current generation's short two-door body.
And this is where things get interesting. Stellantis Japan has confirmed only the end of deliveries for today's two-door Wrangler and has said nothing about whether the format will return with the next generation. So it is too early to bury the two-door Jeep forever. But for the current Wrangler in Japan, the final chapter is already written — only 140 vehicles remain to be sold.
