What a used Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara costs to keep in Singapore

The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara 1,995cc in Singapore: road tax, its COE category and car insurance prices from six insurers, dated.

The Wrangler Unlimited Sahara is now a used-market buy in Singapore, with no entry on the new-car list. That puts the focus on what it costs to keep. This guide walks through the bills that come every year, and the one-off COE rule behind the car's price.

All insurance prices here are examples for one stated driver, read on 1 November 2026. They are a way to compare insurers on equal terms. They do not predict your own premium.

Start with the car itself

With no current listing, this guide gives no list price, no power figure and no body type.

The price page quotes the Wrangler Unlimited Sahara with a 1,995cc engine, the version most of its insurers price. The figures that follow refer to that car only.

Insurance first: six insurers, one profile

Insurance is the cost that varies most between sellers of cover, so it comes first here. The Wrangler Unlimited Sahara price page uses this profile:

  • The car: Unlimited Sahara, registered 3 years ago, comprehensive cover for private use
  • The driver: 40 years old, married, in an office job, with 10 years' driving
  • The record: 50% NCD and no claims
  • Repairs: authorised workshop, with no options

On those details, 6 insurers offer 8 plans between them. The lowest premium is S$1,067.10 a year. The insurer whose lowest plan is dearest asks at least S$1,933.00, and that figure is an estimate. The difference is S$865.90, or 81% on top. All prices include 9% GST.

A further 13 insurers show no online price for this car. Even so, six prices give you a real choice. If you are choosing between Wrangler versions, check each one's price page. The number of insurers willing to quote can differ a lot from one version to the next, even within the same model line.

Reading the excesses

Excess is the slice of each claim you pay. On this page it goes from S$0 to S$3,000. The lowest premium has a S$1,200 excess. The next one up has S$500, the smallest figure among the cheaper plans. The dearest plan has none. One plan near the top carries the full S$3,000.

Several premiums are estimates. They are a guide to the likely level, not a firm offer.

How sensitive the price is

Change one thing, and the lowest price moves like this:

  • NCD drops to 0%: S$2,454.33, up S$1,387.23
  • NCD at 20%: S$1,792.73, up S$725.63
  • A 27-year-old with 3 years' driving and 30% NCD: S$2,474.59, up S$1,407.49, from just 3 insurers
  • A 65-year-old with 20 years' driving and 50% NCD: S$1,687.22, up S$620.12, from just 2 insurers
  • A car registered this year: S$1,135.19, up S$68.09
  • A car 8 years old: S$1,044.38, down S$22.72, from 5 insurers

For the young driver, the lowest price rises by 132%, the biggest move in the table. The NCD drop is nearly as large. Note how the field shrinks for drivers at either end of the age range. With two or three prices, there is less room to compare.

The car's age makes only a small difference. That is useful if the car you are looking at is older than the page's 3-year-old example.

Road tax each year

LTA's formula sets road tax for a 1,995cc engine at S$1,206.24 a year. That was checked on 2026-10-19 and is before any age surcharge.

Many used Wranglers are already well into their COE life. The surcharge rises with age:

  • More than 10 years: +10%
  • More than 11 years: +20%
  • More than 12 years: +30%
  • More than 13 years: +40%
  • More than 14 years: +50%

The road tax page has a calculator for other engines.

COE

The price page says that with a 1,995cc engine, above 1,600cc, the Unlimited Sahara needs a Category B COE. Category B closed at S$131,901 in the October 2026 2nd round.

That matters most if the COE on the car is near its end and you think about renewing. The COE page shows every recent round.

Six comparable cars

For the same driver and car age, the price page shows these lowest prices:

The six average S$844.64. The Unlimited Sahara sits 26% above that, and every one of the 6 is cheaper to insure on these details. Each also has 14 or more insurers pricing it online. The make's other models are on the Jeep car insurance page.

Day-to-day costs you set yourself

These depend on how you use the car:

  • Parking: season parking where you live, plus what you pay at work and in town. Taller vehicles may not clear every car park.
  • Petrol: mileage and pump prices decide it.
  • ERP: set by your routes and timing.
  • Upkeep: servicing, tyres and brakes over time. On a used car, ask for records of past work.
  • Depreciation: the purchase price against the COE life left.

Summary of yearly costs we can show

For the Wrangler Unlimited Sahara, 1,995cc:

  • Insurance, standard driver: from S$1,067.10 a year (1 November 2026)
  • Insurance, no NCD: from S$2,454.33
