Jeep Wrangler 4xe 2024: A Benchmark in Advanced Off-Roading
July 19 2023,
Combining legendary 4x4 capability with sustainable design, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe ushers in a new era for the revered SUV. The Wrangler brand, which has sold nearly 5 million units globally, aims to maintain its indomitable reputation while concurrently fulfilling the Stellantis Dare Forward 2030 strategic plan.
The cornerstone of this endeavour is the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, a prominent player in Jeep's electrified lineup. Championing the brand’s Zero Emission Freedom goal, the Wrangler 4xe adds a sustainability angle to Jeep's famed off-roading prowess. Notably, the 4xe model was the best-selling plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) in both the US and Canada last year.
Equipped with a 2.0-litre turbocharged PHEV powertrain, the 2024 Wrangler 4xe boasts a hefty 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. This eco-friendly monster is all set to bolster its on- and off-road dominance with the launch of two new models: the Wrangler Sport S 4xe and the Wrangler Rubicon X.
Technological advancements are equally impressive, with features such as a standard 12.3-inch touchscreen, power seats tested for water fording, and forward collision warning among others. A first full-float Dana rear axle enables Wrangler owners to effortlessly upsize tires, ensuring both function and form harmoniously coexist in this fresh take on the iconic seven-slot grille SUV.
The new Wrangler also takes a major step forward in safety with the introduction of standard side-curtain airbags. Despite the enhancement in safety and technology, the design remains faithful to the original, upholding the timeless charm of the Wrangler series.
As the North American Jeep brand lineup moves towards full electrification by 2025, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe stands as a testament to Jeep's commitment to environment-friendly propulsion systems, aimed at halving Stellantis' global carbon footprint by 2030. The 2024 Wrangler 4xe is not just a vehicle; it represents a crucial stride towards a more sustainable future in automotive innovation.
