The K&N NextGen Cold Air Intake system is specifically engineered for Jeep Wrangler JL models from 2018 through 2026 and Jeep Gladiator models from 2020 through 2026 equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine. Designed to enhance your vehicle’s performance without requiring a tune, this intake system improves airflow and engine efficiency. It is an ideal upgrade for Jeep enthusiasts seeking increased horsepower and torque while maintaining reliability and ease of maintenance.
By optimizing the air intake path and reducing intake air temperatures, the NextGen Cold Air Intake delivers a noticeable improvement in throttle response and overall engine power. This system is perfect for drivers who want to maximize their Jeep’s potential on and off the road.
The K&N NextGen Cold Air Intake combines advanced engineering with durable materials to provide a high-performance upgrade for your Jeep’s 3.6L V6 engine. Key features include:
The intake tube is crafted from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) using a rotational molding process, which ensures a smooth interior surface for optimal airflow and increased durability. This material resists heat soak and maintains structural integrity under extreme conditions, helping to deliver cooler, denser air to the engine.
The custom NextGen air box is designed to isolate the intake air from the high temperatures of the engine bay, reducing heat transfer and improving combustion efficiency. The system’s components are precision-engineered for a perfect fit, ensuring reliable performance and long-lasting durability.
With up to a 65.4% increase in airflow, the K&N NextGen Cold Air Intake significantly enhances engine breathing, resulting in gains of up to 14.0 horsepower and 16.11 lb-ft of torque. These improvements translate to better acceleration, improved throttle response, and a more engaging driving experience.
The intake also produces a subtle, aggressive induction sound that enhances the driving experience without being intrusive, giving your Jeep a sportier tone under acceleration.
This cold air intake system is designed for a straightforward installation that typically takes less than 60 minutes. It is a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory intake, requiring no cutting, drilling, or additional modifications. The included hardware and detailed instructions make the installation process accessible for enthusiasts with basic mechanical skills.
Fitment is guaranteed for Jeep Wrangler JL models from 2018 to 2026 and Jeep Gladiator models from 2020 to 2026 equipped with the 3.6L V6 engine, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance.
This K&N NextGen Cold Air Intake is ideal for Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator owners who want to enhance their vehicle’s performance without complicated tuning or modifications. It suits daily drivers, off-road enthusiasts, and anyone looking to improve horsepower, torque, and throttle response while maintaining ease of maintenance and long-term durability.

ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
