With its undeniable Jeep DNA and exceptional off-road performance, the Wrangler is arguably the most iconic of all Jeep vehicles. Despite initial doubts, the Wrangler 4xe (pronounced “four-by-e”), the plug-in hybrid version released three years ago, has gained immense popularity with the public thanks to its impressive capabilities and resemblance to its ICE cousins.

There have been a few changes from previous years. The outer rim has been painted on the front grille to match the exterior colour. The seven-slot array remains, but the ridges between the slots have now been opened to allow more air through, as the vertical dimension of the slots has been shortened.
The Rubicon trim now has a factory-installed, crash-tested Warn winch as an optional extra. The Wrangler also has ten new wheel designs, and the cabin now boasts a 12.4-inch infotainment screen with the latest infotainment software from Jeep. The PHEV is now available in Sport and Rubicon X trims and gains a 3.6-kilowatt battery to power accessories.
The highlight of the infotainment system is the new 12.3-inch touchscreen that has been horizontally cantilevered off the dash. The instrument clusters and centre screen are wrapped together, forming a type of cockpit that flows into the rest of the dashboard.
The dash has been subtly upgraded with different textures and colours, highlighting some of the accents in the cabin. It has inbuilt mounting screws that allow the attachment of accessories, such as cameras, without having to glue them in place. The infotainment system is Uconnect 5, with the standard features of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There’s also an inbuilt subscription to Trails Guide, offering directions for over 200 trails.
The Wrangler 4xe has a 2.0-litre, turbo, inline-four motor connected via a belt to a 44-horsepower electric motor at the front and a 134-horsepower electric motor at the rear. The electric motors draw their power from a 400-volt 17 kWh lithium-ion battery pack fitted under the rear seats.
This power is directed to the road through an eight-speed automatic transmission and transfer case. Irrespective of running in pure electric or as a hybrid, the Wrangler 4xe dives in rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and a high or low four-wheel drive for off-roading.
The Wrangler 4xe has 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The Wrangle 4xe is rated at 4.8 L/100 km combined city and highway driving. The Wrangler 4xe, using its 2.0-litre engine only, returns 11.6 L/100 km around town and 11.9 L/100 km on the highway. In electric-only mode, the Wrangler 4xe will travel up to 35 kilometres.
The Wrangler 4xe has all the standard passive safety features, but many active safety features are contained in the optional groups. These driver assistance include Adaptive Cruise Control, Adaptive Cruise Control, and Adaptive Cruise Control.
The Wrangler 4xe has come a long way from its original military roots. Today, it is a competent and comfortable SUV at home on the blacktop as much as in the wilderness. Come into Diamond Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and drive this eco-friendly Wrangler today!
