The hybrid electric vehicle class seems to be expanding more and more by the day. One of the newest members in the segment is the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe! The all-new plug-in hybrid electric vehicle provides plenty of power and loads of instant torque from a 2.0L turbocharged I4 engine linked to two electric motors and a 400-volt battery pack. Keep reading below to learn more about the 2021 Wrangler 4xe and Jeep's first endeavor into the PHEV world!

RANGE

CHARGING MADE SIMPLE

It’s easier than ever to get a charger into your home, like the simple-to-use Level II Jeep® Branded Charger. It can fully charge the Wrangler 4xe battery in approximately 2 hours versus 12 hours using the included Level I charging cable.

SAY GOODBYE TO RANGE ANXIETY

Whether you want to take off-road adventure to new places or simply get around town on all-electric power, the Wrangler 4xe is ready with an EPA estimated 49 MPGe rating. E-Selec driving modes that utilize Power Routing enable you to optimize performance while eliminating range anxiety.

HYBRID TECHNOLOGY

ESAVE MODE

eSave Mode prioritizes the 2.0L engine. This saves the battery charge for later use. When power demand is low, the engine shuts off. It can also be reconfigured to increase the battery charge as well.

REGENERATIVE BRAKING

This feature allows the battery to be charged when decelerating and braking. The Max Regeneration feature remaps the accelerator pedal to command more aggressive regen at low pedal positions. It allows you to slow the vehicle down without the brake pedal, but a complete stop always requires the brake pedal. It also stays selected until you turn it off.

CAPABILITY

A 4X4 FIRST AND FOREMOST

The Wrangler 4xe system is paired with a 2.0L I4 DOHC direct-injection Turbo PHEV engine to bring out the best in already proven Jeep® Brand 4x4 capability. A 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, regenerative brake booster and eight-speed automatic transmission work together to send impressive amounts of power and torque to each wheel, maximizing the capability of every component. The sealed and waterproof battery pack and electronics even perform in tough conditions like fording creeks and streams up to 30 inches in depth. Preproduction model shown.

POWER THROUGH

Climb over tough obstacles and go an electrifying 0-60 mph in 6 seconds. A plug-in hybrid turbocharged engine gives the Wrangler 4xe an impressive 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of instant torque for heart-pounding performance off-road and on-road.

What gives the Wrangler 4xe its power?

The 2021 Wrangler 4xe comes with a turbocharged 2.0L I4 engine and two electric generators, one mounted on the cylinder head, the other mounted in front of the transmission. Powering the electric generators is a 17-kWh, 96-cell, 400-volt lithium-ion battery pack under the second-row seat. The engine is mated to a sturdy TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission. The 4xe offers 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of instantly available torque for a 6-second 0-60 time! What's more, the Wrangler 4xe gets a combined 49 MPG, a total driving range of 370 miles, and 21 miles of all-electric driving. The E-Selec buttons put the driver in control of the engine by allowing them to choose between hybrid, electric, and E-Save. E-Save mode disables the two electric generators allowing the battery pack to charge and save for a time when fully electric power is desired. Drivers can monitor fuel economy, battery charge, and usage on the Hybrid Pages displayed on the Uconnect touchscreen.

What are some standard and available features?

Based on the upper-level trims of the gas-powered Wrangler, the 4xe trim lineup comes with no bad options. Just some of the Wrangler 4xe Sahara's standard features include body-color fender flares, 20-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry/ignition, leather-trimmed upholstery, an 8.4-inch infotainment touchscreen, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a 9-speaker Alpine premium audio system. The Rubicon focuses on off-road capability, just like the gas-powered Rubicon. It brings 33-inch all-terrain tires under high-clearance body-color fender flares, a Rock-Trac 4x4 transfer case, FOX suspension parts, electronic locking front and rear differentials, an electronic disconnecting front sway bar, and more. The High Altitude dials up the luxury with Gloss Black 20-inch alloy wheels, LED exterior lighting, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, quilted leather upholstery, and heated front seats.

The Wrangler 4xe is still a Wrangler!

The 2021 Wrangler 4xe certainly doesn't miss out on the capability of any other Wrangler! All 4xe trims have earned Jeep's coveted Trail Rated badge. It still has full-time four-wheel drive with a transfer case, the standard Dana 44 solid front and rear axles, a high-strength steel frame, 10.8 inches of ground clearance, underbody skid plate protection, and more. The hybrid powertrain of the 4xe actually extends the Wrangler's legendary capability. The electric motors offer all 470 lb-ft of torque instantaneously. This gives drivers maximum control when crawling over rugged terrain at low speeds. Crossing shallow streams up to 30 inches is easy for the 4xe, thanks to sealed electrical connections, a high-placed air box, and a fully protected battery pack.
