If you are looking for a plug-in hybrid that meets the challenges of both the open road and off-road, the Jeep Wrangler 4XE may be ideal for you. Introduced in 2021, this Wrangler remains true to its roots while addressing the need to reduce gas dependency. In fact, this Wrangler can make a 20-mile round trip in Olean NY or anywhere else in America without relying on any gas to fuel its engines.
It’s a Plug-In Hybrid
The 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4X combines the conventional with the modern. It has two sources of power:
- A turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
- Two electric motors
The Jeep runs on batteries until the charge is gone. It then switches to the gas engine and keeps on motoring.
The result is a fuel-efficient car with smooth acceleration and power. It is more than capable of switching from lane to lane on the highway although, like most Jeeps, it prefers to go off-road where it continues to shine.
It Is Still a Jeep
No matter where you drive it, this 2023 vehicle is still a Jeep. Only available with 4 doors, its interior and exterior show its origins. Sure, there are modern touches including:
- LED lighting
- Supportive chairs
- Infotainment system with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, a Wi-Fi hotspot and Alpine premium audio
The Jeep Wrangler in Olean, NY, remains a formidable off-road vehicle – although it will take you to work and back over urban streets. It is also fun.
