It has the incredible performance and off-road capability you expect from a Jeep Wrangler, with fuel economy that will keep you on the road longer between stops for gas.
For many, the big question with the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe and its hybrid powertrain is performance: can it deliver an amazing driving experience?

It is an absolute beast that is a ton of fun to drive and gives you the kind of impressive off-road performance you demand from a Wrangler.
While its off-road capabilities and overall power let you conquer both the road and the trail, the plug-in hybrid design is really the star of the show. With the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, you get 370 miles of total range on a full tank, with an estimated 25 miles of all-electric range for making short trips.

When considering any vehicle, you should take a good look at the engine and powertrain to get a sense of what kind of performance it has to offer. Whether you are looking at a small car or a large SUV, it should be powerful enough to make it fun to drive and get you where you need to go. This is particularly important when looking at a model with an alternative powertrain or similar system to ensure it still has the muscle you need. There were some concerns among Jeep fans that a plug-in hybrid version of the Wrangler would lack that kind of power, but fortunately, Jeep really came through in this regard.
The 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is powered by a 2.0L turbocharged engine that delivers up to 375 hp and up to 470 lb-ft of torque for excellent overall performance. This is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission that smoothly shifts through gears to provide you with a responsive, quick ride that is very enjoyable. You get access to instant torque with the Wrangler 4xe, which allows it to accelerate from 0 to 60 in just 6 seconds: quite impressive for an SUV of this size. All of this means that whether you are on the highway or on the trail, the Wrangler 4xe is a lot of fun to drive.
One of our favorite aspects of the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is the fact that you can select between three different modes at the simple push of a button. You can choose “Hybrid” mode to optimize fuel efficiency over long drives, “Electric” mode to use only the electric battery, or “E-Save” mode to reserve battery power for later and use gas power primarily. This gives you total control over your vehicle’s performance, so you can adapt to any situation and really get the most out of the Wrangler 4xe in a way that few other vehicles can match.
If you are interested in a plug-in hybrid like the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe, then fuel efficiency is probably at the forefront of your considerations. While you will not get the kind of fuel economy that an all-electric vehicle offers, a hybrid like the Wrangler 4xe is a great middle-way between conventional vehicles and EV models. And with its excellent range and overall efficiency, the Wrangler 4xe certainly comes through with what we had hoped to see.
Your fuel economy with the Jeep Wrangler 4xe is really going to depend on how you are driving and what kind of driving you are doing. If you are on a long road trip or need to get somewhere that is a good distance away, then you can use its Hybrid mode to optimize your overall fuel efficiency. This will get you an estimated 370 miles or more of total range on a fully charged battery and full tank of gas, which is fantastic for making long trips. Despite its impressive power and performance, while driving in hybrid mode, you get an estimated equivalent to 49 MPG fuel efficiency, thanks to the use of both gas and electric power.
Best of all, since this is a plug-in hybrid, you are able to choose to drive only with electric power and not touch your gas tank at all. The 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe has a maximum all-electric range of about 21 miles. While that certainly does not compare to an EV model, it lets you run errands around town or even get to and from work each day––if you live near your job––without using any gas. Then, you can plug the Wrangler 4xe into a standard 120v outlet or a home charging unit to easily recharge the battery when not in use.
There are plenty of plug-in hybrid models on the market; even if you only look at SUV options, you still have quite a few different ones to choose from. What really sets the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe apart from many of the other ones out there is the fact that it is a Jeep through and through. For many Jeep fans, off-road performance is the most important factor in deciding on a vehicle and why they keep coming back to Jeep year after year. Fortunately, the Wrangler 4xe delivers everything we had hoped for in terms of off-road design.
Some people were concerned that a focus on hybrid performance would mean sacrificing the off-road capability that Jeep is so famous for, but those fears were clearly unwarranted. The 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is an off-road machine, first and foremost, with an impressive performance that has clearly earned its Trail Rated badge of honor. Even though it is a plug-in hybrid, it is also a 4x4 vehicle with two different options for hardware, depending on the model you choose. You can either get a Wrangler 4xe with part-time Selec-Trac, which lets you choose when you need 4WD or full-time Rock-Trac 4WD for those who are seriously dedicated to hitting the trail.
You get true 4WD performance with the Wrangler 4xe, with power systems in both the front and rear to send power to all four wheels. With the plug-in hybrid engine and design, you get instant acceleration that is fun on the road and really helps with navigating rough terrain when you leave the city behind. Whether you are crawling over rocks, working your way across sand and slippery conditions, or blazing a trail through the wilderness, the Wrangler 4xe can handle it and keep you in control.
In order to really prove it has earned its Trail Rated badge, the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe has up to 30 inches of water fording depth. Even though there is a battery pack and other advanced equipment for its plug-in hybrid performance, you can still navigate streams, creeks, and shallow rivers with ease and not have to worry about flooding the Wrangler 4xe’s mechanical systems. This is not something you will find on other plug-in hybrid models and really demonstrates Jeep’s commitment to bold, off-road design, amazing performance, and advanced power systems for the future of their brand.
