The excitement of the upcoming model year is in the air, especially for those who are looking for an exciting off-road option that can facilitate both the daily commute and the adventures that take place on the path less traveled. The good news is that here at Jeff Perry Chrysler Jeep, we’ve got the essential information on one of the hottest items for the latest model year, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler.
The past few decades have seen the Wrangler remain as the standard-bearer for off-roading efficiency as well as the daily commute, and today we’ll be taking a closer look at the vehicle that has certainly evolved with the ever-growing needs of consumers, yet has still retained the same poise and passion of its predecessors. No matter where your journeys might take you, visiting your favorite Jeep dealer is the first step to a daring and exciting adventure.
It’s been remarked that “the more things change, the more they stay the same.” When it comes to the specifics of performance in the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, this is certainly the case. The Wrangler has always maintained a reputation for performance, and there are four unique powertrains to choose from. Depending on what you’re looking for, there’s something that’s perfectly suited just for you.
The standard engine for the Wrangler embraces the tradition of the vehicle’s past, as it fires on six cylinders and puts forth a desirable effort. The 3.6L V6 propels the Wrangler forward with the benefit of 285 hp and the capacity to generate an impressive 260 lb-ft. of torque. As Jeep has a long-standing reputation for catering to many different types of drivers, the engine can be paired with either an eight-speed automatic transmission or a six-speed manual for maximum control. For drivers who are looking for just a little bit more in the performance sector, a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine with an increased capacity of 295 lb-ft. of torque can be upgraded to.
Exclusive to the PHEV version for the Wrangler, known as the 4xe, is a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that pairs with an electric motor for an impressive output of 375 hp and 470 lb-ft. of torque. The 4xe is perfectly suited for the discerning city driver, as it offers up to 21 miles of electric-only driving, which can be very advantageous when it comes to saving money on the daily commute. And finally, for those who want to maximize the performance of their Wrangler, eight cylinders are available and will push capability to the absolute limit. A 6.4L V8 possesses a magic number of 470, as this is the amount of horsepower and torque that the engine is capable of.
At the very start of this examination, we were sure to mention that the Wrangler has remained largely unchanged since its debut. This comes as a delight to the legions of Jeep traditionalists who have always relied on the Wrangler as a solid foundation of consistency. And perhaps why the vehicle is as venerable as it is; it changes when necessity dictates, and that’s more than apparent with the technological updates that have taken place for the 2024 model year. After just a few moments behind the wheel, you’ll quickly realize how effective these implemented changes are.
Just like similar offerings on the marketplace, the gateway to many of the technological attributes that the Wrangler possesses is accessible through the infotainment screen. In the past, the Wrangler was equipped with one that stretched out to either five or seven inches. As a testament to the excitement of the upcoming model year, every Wrangler, regardless of trim, comes with one that spans out to a generous 12.3 inches.
Jeep has gone the extra mile (literally and figuratively) to include a load of extras that are made with the modern Jeep owner in mind. Equipped with Uconnect 5, Jeep’s comprehensive software program, the Wrangler’s infotainment setup is compatible with both Apple and Android products and includes wireless connectivity. Because the journey is always more important than the destination, the Wrangler also offers navigation software with over 3,000 trails that are ready to be explored and conquered. Active noise cancellation ensures that your entertainment masks the worries of the working world as you traverse a multitude of locations.
There was a palpable feeling of excitement that was generated a few years ago when it was announced that a PHEV edition of the Wrangler was going to begin rolling off of the assembly lines. As the whole scope of the automotive industry repurposes its efforts to be more environmentally conscious, the 4xe has proven to be one of the most impressive breakthroughs in the continuing evolution of the hybrid powertrain. The excitement continues with three unique driving modes for the 4xe that Jeep refers to as E Selec, which customizes the powertrain configuration depending on the circumstances.
As the name of this driving mode suggests, the electric motor and engine work in unison with each other to deliver exquisite performance. The battery is used first; then, the engine takes over when power from the electric motor runs low or is depleted. This is best utilized for lengthy stretches of highway commuting.
Some of the situations that EV owners have attested to benefit the most from have been found in the stop-and-go patterns of city driving, where fuel can burn up quicker than usual. In electric mode, the 4xe will only use power from the electric motor, making it ideal for short stints of city driving.
This driving mode is most likely what off-roaders will want to take advantage of, as it places the propulsion from the engine as a priority. This allows electric power to be conserved for a moment that necessitates it.
As the new model year quickly approaches, the Jeep Wrangler continues to do what it’s always done since its inception, which is awe, inspire and provide a way for adventures to be undertaken. With its host of powertrains that cater to the whims of any type of driver, Jeep once again proves that they’re the very best at adapting to the needs of the many and not just the few. With on-board navigation and more advanced technology than we’ve seen from the Wrangler, it appears that this is one vehicle that has its fingers on the pulse of what the masses are looking for, both on the road and off of it.
And when it comes to the pulse of what drivers are looking for, you can rest assured that this is what you’ll find when you shop with the experts at Jeff Perry Chrysler Jeep.
