The iconic 2024 Jeep Wrangler strides confidently into a new era with a comprehensive revamp, showcasing a blend of heightened performance and innovative technology.
The return of the esteemed 4xe plug-in hybrid variant marks a transformative moment for the Wrangler lineup, delivering a seamless integration of efficiency, strength, and state-of-the-art tech features.
As a beacon of innovation, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler stands out, especially when measured against its off-road-centric rivals. The new Uconnect 5 interface, showcased through a 12.3-inch touchscreen, is the most advanced system to grace the Wrangler. It is laden with features such as Trails Offroad, customizable settings, and improved dual Bluetooth connectivity. Added to this is a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot and the comprehensive SiriusXM 360L service, offering passengers a continuous stream of entertainment and connectivity. The in-built TomTom navigation ensures easy travel with smart search functions and real-time traffic updates, essential for any expedition, whether on well-trodden paths or new territories.
The Wrangler enhances its tech suite with a versatile Driver Information Digital Cluster Display and the convenient Remote Vehicle Start, available through the Connect Vehicle subscription. The Uconnect 5 NAV, with its expansive touchscreen, transforms the navigation experience for off-road enthusiasts. For those choosing the 4xe PHEV, the Uconnect 5's Hybrid Electric Pages provide a window into the vehicle's hybrid performance, showing details on energy consumption and regenerative braking. This array of sophisticated features underscores Jeep's unwavering mission to offer a captivating, connected, and informed driving experience.
Marrying the timeless charm of Jeep with modern flair, the exterior of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler has been masterfully updated. The redesigned front fascia now sports a bold black and silver motif, serving to not just captivate onlookers but to also enhance thermal management—a critical upgrade for the Rubicon models equipped with the Warn winch. The array of new paint choices, alongside the sleek, integrated antenna now positioned on the windshield, bolsters the vehicle's aesthetic and utility, ensuring uninterrupted performance in rugged landscapes. The Wrangler also introduces an expanded wheel portfolio, featuring ten unique designs that underscore its versatility across various terrains.
Customization remains at the heart of the Jeep experience, with the 2024 Wrangler offering numerous options for open-air driving. This includes a new default premium soft-top, a selection of hardtops, and the innovative Sky One-Touch powertop, all of which offer enthusiasts the chance to personalize their ride for any outdoor escapade. The enduring body-on-frame construction and advanced five-link suspension setup maintain the Wrangler's legendary off-road prowess while refining its on-road poise. Strategic application of aluminum materials and underbody skid plates fortifies the structure while augmenting the vehicle's overall efficiency.
Inside the 2024 Wrangler, luxury meets state-of-the-art technology, illustrating Jeep’s dedication to practical luxury and versatility. The cabin is adorned with a reimagined dashboard that pays homage to Jeep's rich history, showcasing an instrument panel enveloped in premium soft-touch materials accented by detailed stitching. The cabin's luxury is matched by thoughtful features like the integrated AMPS bracket on the dashboard. Higher-tier trims, including the High Altitude, Rubicon X, and Rubicon 392, are further insulated from noise with advanced glass and sound-absorbing materials, offering a tranquil driving atmosphere.
The technological heartbeat of the Wrangler is the brand-new 12.3-inch touchscreen interface, which brings the Uconnect 5 system to life. This Android-powered platform operates with quintuple the speed of its predecessor and is consistently updated over-the-air. Its capabilities include hands-free Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, personalized user settings, and Alexa compatibility, ensuring a dynamic and interactive driving experience. The functionality is elevated with the inclusion of multiple USB Type C fast-charging ports, additional USB connections for both seating rows, and an optional AC power outlet to accommodate all passenger needs.
With the most varied powertrain selection in its segment, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler caters to diverse driving styles. The range includes the environmentally-conscious 4xe plug-in hybrid, the muscular V-8 Rubicon 392, a spirited turbocharged 2.0-litre inline-four, and the robust 3.6-litre V-6. The 4xe and Rubicon 392 are exclusively mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, while the V-6 offers a choice between a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic. The engines deliver varying performance metrics: the 4xe PHEV boasts 375 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque, the inline-four provides 270 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. of torque, the V-6 outputs 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque, and the V-8 unleashes a formidable 470 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque.
The Wrangler 4xe PHEV shines with its eco-friendly design, offering a pure electric range of 35 kilometres and a combined hybrid range of 592 kilometres. Its Turbo PHEV engine and 17 kWh battery pack are tuned for impressive off-road performance. With the available Level II charger, the Wrangler 4xe can be fully charged in two hours. All powertrains uphold the Wrangler's storied 4x4 capabilities, bolstered by systems like Command-Trac, Rock-Trac, and Selec-Trac, which deliver unparalleled crawl ratios, water fording, and clearance.
Joining the 2024 Wrangler family are two exciting new additions: the Sport S 4xe and the Rubicon X. The Sport S 4xe cements its place as a leading plug-in hybrid in North America, featuring amenities such as the 12.3-inch digital display, advanced cruise control, forward collision warning, and a deluxe soft-top. Meanwhile, the Rubicon X is a premium interpretation of the classic Rubicon, outfitted with 12-way power-adjustable seats, an elite Alpine sound system, Nappa leather upholstery, and a built-in off-road camera. These new entrants reinforce the Wrangler as a top pick for those seeking a versatile and technologically advanced off-road companion.
