I have watched a lot of Jeep JL Wrangler reviews and this is the best review I have watched so far. Very detailed, professional and thorough. Really appreciate the great effort put by the team to make this review happen. Keep up the great work. This review should be the benchmark for all other car reviews!!
as I am an American I enjoyed this reviewer, I bought the 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport S with cloth seats-reason leather seats will burn your butt sitting in the sun with the top off-automatic is a well worth option-and don't let the gas mileage get to you it is and never has been a great gas saver, but if you want that buy a Prius- The new JL is pretty good until you start lifting it and bigger tires as any vehicle; I have a 2015 Jaguar XF and have had no trouble with it, so all vehicles have issues take the good with the bad, anything man made does fail at some point. Just keep in mind a Wrangler is a good bit of fun. As much as I like the land rover you just can't take the roof off and in America it's more expensive than the Jeep as well as the G-wagon. Hope this helps.
Jeep side vents are functional. Used to decrease hood(bonnet) flutter at highway speeds due to upright flat grill. They also redesigned the hood latches to better secure the hood. Jeep is all about functinality.
Thank you this lengthy and in-depth analysis and insights about the Jeep Wrangler. I'd surely be looking to get one for myself in a time not long from now.

A proper car review. Thank you! I own a 2dr Jk that I use daily to/from town. My wife drives an older Land cruiser lc5 (with 7 seats and high spec) that cost me 50k brand new. Today , after 10 years of ownership, it will still fetch over 20k and has never had a fault. This JL looks a good car in Rubicon guise, but only makes sense in 2dr/SWB form. I will definitely upgrade the JK to this one. As for the JL 4dr vs Land cruiser, there is no comparison - the LC5 is THE ROLLS ROYCE amongst proper off roaders - the residuals do not lie (I could buy a 6/7 year old £90k RangeRover Autobiography for less than I would get for my 10 year old LC5!). Keep up the great work.
The 3.6 Litre Petrol Engine is available from Geiger Cars in Germany. They import them from the States and spec them for the European market. Super detailed report, thank you 👍
@@rivervalegroup Note that the 3.6 on the JL is NOT the same that was offered on the JK. As such, most of the components are not interchangeable. Even the amount of oil used is different. 6L down to 5L. Even the dealers in the US will overfilling all the new wranglers. It would be hard to get then engine serviced in Europe. My local dealer (in Germany) informed me that they would not be able to service that engine in their shop.
Not sure why but I find his accent rather amuzing. Thanks for the awesome vid. I went straight for the jl rubicon, an authentic track that delivers on its promises
Just got my first jeep this past weekend. 2019 Rubicon unlimited. Definitely a old school SUV. It's fun, no BMW like I had but interesting nonetheless.
you cant beat a rubi,,landies are still dinasours.depends if you want a show vehicle or a 4x4..look up lite brite you tube...only thing ive noticed,is they burn well.vid,trail recon, his rubi burnt to the ground,& one at intersection.petrol though..i own 4 f series,.& a challenger 1973..340 r/t.,best 4x4,is,a 1975 f250 highboy.all you need is a front locker,they go anywhere..might be old,but still going.&,sought after.basics are a 3m wheel base.1.60 low,2 diffs,diesel if available.5 or 6 sp manual, no auto..hard to come by these days...id like a jl but there 70 odd k here in aus...
I wouldn't mind purchasing a Rubicon,but due to the excessive flooding we've had here, the snorkeling option is a necessity. The diesel engine is a must have as well. Great video!
...oh, the vents (if you wanna call them that) are just for show...open on top, but its a box that collects rain water to drain out the sides bonnet cover :0)
I was about to write that until I saw this lol. Honestly, the MOLLE is one of the most versatile and convenient system ever conceived, as it allows your to adjust your equipment to your needs.
What your version is missing are the steel bumpers (not plastic) with a 12,000 lb recessed winch. The steel Rubi bumper has the bolts to add a 'bull rail' or brush guard. Also, includes the steel under-body skid plates...
Wonderful, detailed, professional review! One thing that isn't mentioned though is occupants protection in the event of a crash. This is the main (and IMO) the only disadvantage of the Wrangler to the other SUV's on the market today. I like it as an offroader, but as a family car had I got the money, I'd look elsewhere.
which would have been OK if they were at least keeping the Defenders offroad prowess, but alas, it seems to be build on the discovery platform and is there not suitable for real offroad use. Pity.
The hardtop comes off pretty easily. I have a top lift on the ceiling of my garage. It's a few bolts, connect 4 hooks and hit a button. The freedom top is fiberglass and has a lot of aftermarket headliner options.
The curious ripped panels mentioned (located on the back of the driver and passenger seat) are in fact a MOLLE system. For people like me that spent many years in the armed forces, the term is familiar. You might have seen this system on bags, backpacks etc. This is nice because you can buy a lot of pouches, flashlight holder, emg stuff, first aid etc. that you can now attach to the MOLLE behind the seat of course with the usual struggle. But once installed, it hardly ever falls off. I love your video and thought I might add this comment to explain what these weird looking stripe thingies are...
The “pretend vents” behind the fenders and functional to help with airflow, even in the video you can kinda see that they are real, this makes me feel you didn’t fully look into some aspects of this vehicle
This was an excellent and very enjoyable review to watch. I like your perspectives and really helped my decision on the Rubicon. Keep up the great work.
Hey don't knock the TJ, having driven JK's and JL's they are great I'd buy one if I could ever afford one, but I have a awesome TJ that has been modified quite a bit, it looks awesome, its so simple to maintain myself and I love it.
RL. And the side vents are to let engine heat out. USA gets three maybe four engine choices and four models, the cheapest being a sport with steel wheels.. We (Australia) get the 2.2 diesel from the Alpha Stelvio (are they any good? The old VM wasn’t that great) and 3.6 Pentastar and three models but not the cheapest the USA gets, here we’re paining $80,000 AUD for the Rubicon and what we call the “Overland” which has leather interior, the Sport has vinyl. Not cheap anywhere but the USA. Are they reliable over time? FCA here aren’t known for customer service either... The JK’s that came with a hard top also came with the soft one albeit in a bag.
Good comprehensive video. A few questions: Does this model include a roll cage within the main structure? If the jeep rolled, would the body crush, or has there been improved strength in the body that is effectively an incorporated roll cage? Does this model come with a fixed sold steel body with opening sun roof rather than removable hard tops - similar to a land rover defender rear body? Can the wheels and tires be changed for the 37" with the 5" lift and upgraded suspension for the trails? thanks
Absolutely wonderful and informative video. Professionally done. Plus, I enjoy listening to British English which is very articulate and precise. George Bernard Shaw put it best: "England and America are two countries divided by a common language". We say, a-lu'-mi-num. The Brits say, "al-u-min-i-um. We say trunk and the Brits say boot. All in all, this video has been most enjoyable.
Yep, that is how you do a succinct car review that give you all the nuts and bolts you need if you want to consider a purchase. I will follow this man for sure. And yes, I want want the Rubican..The acid test is, how reliable is it over a long trip? One would always but a Toyota for reliability, so that is the bench mark for long trips.
Watched the whole video and subbed.. great points and very informative. I am looking to buy 19' JL Rubicon 4 door, just can't decide whether to get auto or manual..any advice you can give? My dealer said I have to wait 4 weeks for manual since over 90% sold are auto... I test drove auto ..it wasn't bad at all..but I feel manual is special in general.
I have driven, on roads and off, both manual and automatic Jeeps and my vote is to go with the automatic! Far less worries, especially when one is off-roading and one wants/needs his attention concentrated on the trail conditions ahead. Surprisingly, new(er) Jeeps with automatic transmissions get better (though negligibly so) gas mileage. Good luck with whatever you decide on...you will not be disappointed. Keep on Jeeping!
Depends what your primary use of the Jeep will be. For roads, manual all the way, but if you plan on doing more serious offroading, definitely get an automatic. There's a reason why most Jeeps at Moab are automatic.
AUS HERE,,,IF your a yuppi city ite,,get auto,if your using the rubi for what its meant,get manual.diesel..unless the auto goes down hill at 1/2 mile an hour.no brakes.then raise 3",fit 35" tyres.unstopable.

@@mandytuning Depends on the terrain...I'm a Jeep-lover, but not all-terrain is equal. Rock-crawling, yes, Jeep Rubi will reaign, but the Toy Tacoma or Forerunner TRD can roll in some sand!
@@rivervalegroup I don't understand that score... Is it because the base model lacks some of the safety features of the higher spec models? Especially if you opt for the reasonably priced safety pack (which admittedly should be standard) then most safety concerns seem to be covered and most of the main modern safety technology is included. One star therefore seems ridiculous and very unfair to me, Curtain airbags I imagine couldn't be included in a car which is capable of having its doors removed !
Great video. Very informative. Over fifty minutes long though. ...50 min long dude. I would have broke this up into three separate videos. 50 minutes is a stretch.
Much roof confusion with this reviewer.The jeep truck is a available in the USA yet the UK lacks pictures of it. He showed a concept or aftermarket jk truck.
The 4 door Wrangler showed up on Consumer Reports 'most complaints' list a couple of years ago. My biggest complaint was my knees always banged into the lower dash and it hurt when off road.
jeep,should only build the rubi,in petrol,or diesel.no other variants..why would you want anything else..cummins has the 2.8tdi,& a 5lt v8 tdi.they should fit that to the rubi,sales would be out past pluto...
I have the 2018 Jeep JL 4-door Sport. I'm not doing actual 'rock-crawling', just everyday driving with an occasion on the beach or snow. I've tried to get it stuck (without driving it off a cliff), and had a very difficult time doing so (with stock tires and no lift).
Micah Harford nothing wrong with that brother. I have a 2019 rubi 2dr, and I drive it on CA highways to and from work during the week. Other than that, we’ll be taking it up to the snow in the winter, and I’ll be using it out on the trail whenever I have time....but no major rock crawling planned. To each his own. Love the Jeep, and that’s MY purpose for having one. 🤘🏻👍🏻 🇺🇸
A number of factual errors in this video. Two glaring ones: 1. Side vents next to front wheels are functional. At speed, it disperses heat from engine bay, reducing heat buildup. 2. Top speed is limited due to tire rating, not window rake. Not that you’d want to be driving that fast in a brick anyway.
not after you guys are done with one, that things is a mess rusted bottom torn fenders not a good option wrangler too be trying too sell too the public .. besides that decent review
Edgar Ben Joseph The Strongest 4x4 is the old Land Rover. Nowadays Mercedes G wagon is the best. You can stick in the back two land cruiser and drift them easy!!!! There is a video as well in desert that Mercedes G wagon outperform Toyota Land Cruiser. Regarding the Jeep one is good if you are not using highway roads.
in EU and countries connected to EU, the "steel" bumbers are not allowed to be sold as part of a vehicle from a dealership, but the car owner can purchase one himself and pay for the installation or install it him/herself.
Would you consider a Wrangler?
OSV only if they could improve the fuel consumption
Bought this exact model in a soft top.
I really want one. And that's coming from someone who wanted a JK (as a second car) and now feels even more tempted...haha.
Great review, many thanks.
Simon Overland is gas too expensive in Europe?
Yes, glad to see right hand drive models are available now (or soon).
I have watched a lot of Jeep JL Wrangler reviews and this is the best review I have watched so far.
Very detailed, professional and thorough.
Really appreciate the great effort put by the team to make this review happen.
Keep up the great work.
This review should be the benchmark for all other car reviews!!
Feedback like this is great to see 👍 thank you
Im three years late but i agree, perfect review 👍
The side vents allow under hood de-pressurization, eliminating hood flutter at highway speed.
DAMN ..... gotta love the Brit sense of humor and manner of expressing things
Great review
🤣 Thanks George
Those little strands behind the rubicon seats are to attach military or military style molle pouches etc.. very cool 😎
By Far The Best Reviewer EVER , thank you
Great to see comments like this 👍 thanks for the feedback Kourosh
"A superbly commanding driving position" is music to my ears.

Keep up the great work.
Thanks for the feedback 👍 its grat to hear back from an owner and someone with so much experience in the sector
Good review, better than most US reviews.
These reviews are very often lacking critical analysis. Check out Consumer Reports lists of dud vehicles to avoid the 'lemon'.
I watch a lot of car review videos. This is how you do a car review video.
Thanks for the feedback James Jones 👍 great to see comments like this
Yes
Extremely thorough
Best review I’ve watched..great detail..thank you! I bought a JL Rubicon last week after I watched this instead of a old and tired LC200 Sahara

Same here
jl rubicon tires are 33 inches stock. 32 was the jk rubicon size

42:05 Everytime I park my two ton Jeep next to a Prius or Leaf, I will yell at them for killing my planet.
@OSV "curious rib panels" on back of front seats are MOLLE-compatible strappings that can be used to secure various equipment such as military bags.
Thanks for the information Birch 👍

Does it available in manual gear shift system?
The best jeep
I LIKE WRANGLER
Pretend vents? I thought they were functionable to keep the hood from moving about
Why do British reviewers always have to repeat the whole Jeep history thing? (and screw it up so!)
I would love to see the jeep compared (offroad) next to a modern range rover.
A fair comparison will be a rover to a 4ruuner trd pro and my money is for the runner, the jeep will kick both ass
@@mandytuning Depends on the terrain...I'm a Jeep-lover, but not all-terrain is equal. Rock-crawling, yes, Jeep Rubi will reaign, but the Toy Tacoma or Forerunner TRD can roll in some sand!
The vents are not pretend on the side behind the fenders. They are pretend atop the bonnet.
How is it safety score?
It got a 1 star from EuroNCAP which is pretty horrendous. If safety is a priority this vehicles not for you 👍
@@rivervalegroup I don't understand that score... Is it because the base model lacks some of the safety features of the higher spec models?

I would love a Wrangler and have it as my only car if only it were acceptably priced in India...
The rear “ribbed” part of the seat are for molle pouches
i thought the 4-h-auto was only available on the sahara edition?
Great video. Very informative. Over fifty minutes long though. ...50 min long dude. I would have broke this up into three separate videos. 50 minutes is a stretch.
is that a blinker light on the side mirrors?
yes, it is. Also, it blinks when when someone drives up the historical blind-spot.
Much roof confusion with this reviewer.The jeep truck is a available in the USA yet the UK lacks pictures of it. He showed a concept or aftermarket jk truck.
susceptability to cross winds,.....vw beetles are bared from crossing the golden gate bridge....sideways...
You are incorrect, those vents are not fake and are functional.
0:21 whats up with the paint chippings.
The 4 door Wrangler showed up on Consumer Reports 'most complaints' list a couple of years ago. My biggest complaint was my knees always banged into the lower dash and it hurt when off road.
Fuck he called it a car
JEEP is a JEEP not a SUV
Rubi all day long....simply put, no other “suv” compares, period. Rubi is a purpose built beast....so the only question is, what is YOUR purpose?
jeep,should only build the rubi,in petrol,or diesel.no other variants..why would you want anything else..cummins has the 2.8tdi,& a 5lt v8 tdi.they should fit that to the rubi,sales would be out past pluto...

2. Top speed is limited due to tire rating, not window rake. Not that you’d want to be driving that fast in a brick anyway.
Many thanks for the feedback 👍
RHD?
Ever since the Gladiator came out, JL just look so much cleaner and compact than the mess of the Gladiator.
Europe gets a 3.2L Ecodiesel? Stateside we get a 3.0L ecodiesel.

We ALL know jeep has it.
It's good and maybe the best in 2019, but after 200 000 miles, don't tell me it's better than a Land Cruiser lol
Edgar Ben Joseph The Strongest 4x4 is the old Land Rover. Nowadays Mercedes G wagon is the best. You can stick in the back two land cruiser and drift them easy!!!! There is a video as well in desert that Mercedes G wagon outperform Toyota Land Cruiser. Regarding the Jeep one is good if you are not using highway roads.
It’s batter at all miles
The EU spec bumpers really look weird.
Yeah, and apparently the hood (bonnet) is steel, not aluminium as in North American market - some pedestrian protection issue.
@@thabonchu1568 I like the steel Rubi bumpers...
European SUV's also don't resemble anything that would handle anything more than the backyard.
hmm.. Mercedes G-Class G300 professional?
The bumpers on the European model are atrocious. Ruins the entire look of the JL.
in EU and countries connected to EU, the "steel" bumbers are not allowed to be sold as part of a vehicle from a dealership, but the car owner can purchase one himself and pay for the installation or install it him/herself.
Why doesn't jeep downsize rubicon's engine to make it more affordable to run
gas 3.8 only USA
That moment when you make a nearly 1 hour video review of a Wrangler without any offroad test whatsoever...
