    Full test-drive experience: • 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4XE...
    Thank you to:

    Wrangler 4xe’s advanced turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, two electric motors and robust TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission combine to deliver an estimated 50 MPGe
    400-volt, 17 kWh, 96-cell battery pack mounts beneath second-row seat to protect it from outside elements and to preserve the interior space.
    The Wrangler 4xe’s plug-in hybrid powertrain is capable of up to 25 miles of nearly silent, zero-emission, electric-only propulsion.
    Key elements of the Wrangler 4xe powertrain include 375 horsepower (280 kW), 470 lb.-ft. (637 N•m) of torque and an estimated 50 MPGe from the following components:
    2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 Engine-mounted motor generator unit Transmission-mounted motor generator unit integrated into eight-speed automatic transmission (ZF 8P75PH)
    400-volt, 17-kWh, 96-cell lithium-ion, nickel manganese cobalt battery pack
    The 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 engine is part of FCA’s Global Medium Engine family. The high-tech, direct-injection engine uses a twin-scroll, low-inertia turbocharger mounted directly to the cylinder head, along with a dedicated cooling circuit for the turbocharger, intake air and throttle body for exceptional responsiveness, performance and fuel efficiency.
    A high-voltage, liquid-cooled motor generator unit mounts at the front of the engine, replacing the conventional alternator. A robust belt connects the motor generator to the engine crankshaft pulley. The motor generator spins the engine for nearly seamless, fuel-saving, start-stop operation and generates electricity for the battery pack. The Wrangler 4xe does not use a conventional 12-volt starter motor. The Wrangler 4xe is equipped with a 12-volt battery to run accessories.
    The second high-voltage motor generator is mounted at the front of the transmission case, replacing the conventional torque converter of an automatic transmission.
    Two clutches work to manage power and torque from the e-motor and engine. A binary clutch (on/off) is mounted between the engine and the motor. When this clutch is open there is no mechanical linkage between the engine and the e-motor, which enables it to propel the Wrangler 4xe in electric-only mode.
    When the binary clutch is closed, torque from the 2.0-liter engine and the e-motor flow combine through the automatic transmission. A variable clutch mounted behind the e-motor manages engagement with the transmission to improve drivability and efficiency.
    The Jeep Wrangler 4xe’s 400-volt, 17-kWh, 96-cell lithium-ion battery pack uses nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) graphite chemistry. The pack and controls mount underneath the second-row seat, where it is protected from outside elements. The Wrangler 4xe’s second-row seat is redesigned, allowing the bottom cushion to flip forward for access to the battery.
    Encased in an aluminum housing, the pack is fitted with a dedicated heating and cooling circuit to keep the battery at its optimum temperature for best performance. The temperature control circuit includes a dedicated heater unit and a chiller that uses the Wrangler air-conditioning refrigerant to reduce coolant temperature when needed.
    All high-voltage electronics, including the wiring between the battery pack and the electric motors, are sealed and waterproof.
    The Wrangler 4xe hybrid powertrain has three modes of operation, known as E Selec. Regardless of the mode selected, the Wrangler 4xe operates as hybrid once the battery nears its minimum state of charge.
    -Hybrid: The default mode blends torque from the 2.0-liter engine and electric motor. In this mode, the powertrain will use battery power first, then add in propulsion from the 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 when the battery reaches minimum state of charge
    -Electric: The powertrain operates on zero-emission electric power only until the battery reaches the minimum charge or the driver requests more torque (such as wide-open throttle), which engages the 2.0-liter engine
    -eSave: Prioritizes propulsion from the 2.0-liter engine, saving the battery charge for later use, such as EV off-roading or urban areas where internal combustion propulsion is restricted. The driver can also choose between Battery Save and Battery Charge during eSave via the Hybrid Electric Pages in the Uconnect monitor.

    4H Auto is effectively AWD; it engages the front axle but sends power to the rear wheels, only giving power to the front when it senses traction loss. 4H Part Time is the setting is 4 wheel high range. 4H Auto can be used all the time (at the cost of decreased gas mileage) where using 4H Part Time should only be used off road. I believe your explanation was reversed.

    Good review except you missed one of the most unique and impressive features. The removable rear hard top quarter panels. No other vehicle has this excellent feature, therefore it should have been featured or at least mentioned. Removable doors too.

      Don't forget there is a 7,500 tax credit which may become 12,500 if the new EV legislation is signed since it is made in USA and made by union workers. Both make is less than the gas version. My girl and I like it so much we bought one each, but went with the Sahara model instead. At the rubicon price why spend the extra for a mall crawler...

      I just leased a 4xe sahara in Columbia SC w MSRP $57080 for 3800 down 350/mo. Effective lease payment $455/mo.
      36/36.
      Lease payment is $180 more than my $25000 2019 Civic Si but I'll save approx $80/mo on gas.
      Insurance is a wash.
      For net $100 a month more I get to drive a $57k jeep for 3 years.

    The gas tank is pressurized. Pushing the button on the dash releases the pressure so you don’t accidentally take a shower.

    4wd part time means it's in 4wd no centre diff so will get tire scrub as front and rear axle speed locked together. 4wd auto likely has electric clutch or similar to auto switch in and out of 4wd... You should have researched this for your explanation. Generally good overview. Thanks.

    Looks great but I think it sacrificed so much cargo space for the sake of getting more mileage. Cool concept but would probably look better as a full EV.

    • @MikesCarInfo
      @MikesCarInfo  Год назад

      Jeep sells a lock for the hood if that is what you want.
      Another way to look at it is.. anyone can slash tires, break windows, scratch paint, damage lights, dent metal.
      Best not to park your vehicle in a place where people are inclined to do these types of things.
