If you’re the kind of person who spends weekends in the great outdoors—or perhaps you just want to look like you do—the Jeep Wrangler is an SUV that will take you just about anywhere you want to go. Jeep Wrangler has come a long way from its military roots and offers plenty of creature comforts, and in fact, higher-end trims could be called luxurious. Now, that doesn’t necessarily mean the Jeep Wrangler will treat you to a pillowy ride or massage you on your way to the trailhead.
Jeep offers many more powertrain options than its rivals, including a plug-in hybrid variant and a 470-hp V-8 that’s exclusive to the Rubicon 392 model.
The Jeep Wrangler can be had with one of five different powertrains, starting with a 285-hp 3.6-liter V-6 that can be paired with a six-speed manual gearbox or a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic.
A turbocharged four-cylinder engine is optional and teams up with an electric motor to provide additional low-end power, but this powertrain is only available with the eight-speed automatic. In addition to the standard V-6 and optional four-cylinder hybrid, the Wrangler can also be equipped with a 3.6-liter V-6 with a similar hybrid assist, a 375-hp plug-in hybrid 4xe powertrain, or a 6.4-liter V-8.
Jeep Wrangler is born off-road ready, so part-time four-wheel drive is standard across the range and is controlled by a lever on the center console.
