First Electrified Jeep Has Dealers Wanting More

Coming off their best market share year ever, Jeep has entered the EV game with their first hybrid-electric, Jeep Wrangler 4XE. The question is still raised: will the rugged expectations of Jeep fans be satisfied by an electric option? Head of Jeep, Jim Morrison, says electrification has been well accepted by the Jeep community with the new hybrid Wrangler accounting for a quarter of all Wrangler sales.

An upgrade to electric? How does the Wrangler 4XE compare to the ICE Wranglers?

  • Offers 470 lb.-ft torque and instant torque
  • Performs many off-roading tasks in all-electric mode
  • Gives Jeep customers the "Upgraded performance" they want, despite being a hybrid.

Jeep has many pots on the stove, with updated Grand Cherokee, Wagoneer, and Grand Wagoneer also in the mix. Morrison is confident the future has what will keep existing fans and attract new customers along the way.
