2022 JeepWrangler 4xe Unlimited Rubicon For Sale

Price: The 2022 Wrangler 4xe starts at $52,530.

The 2022 Wrangler 4xe SUV is where the worlds of low emissions and high ground clearance collide. As a top-notch off-roader, the Wrangler 4xe can get down and dirty or as rough and rocky as the rest of its stablemates. It will wade through water 30 inches deep. But this 4-door Jeep variant is also a plug-in hybrid with an electric-only range of 22 miles.

Although plenty of road-going vehicles are adding electrification to their drivetrains, it’s still a new thing with real sport utility vehicles that can do all the tough off-roading stuff. This is only the 4xe’s second year of existence, while the Wrangler is in its fourth generation (which debuted for the 2018 model year) and has an impressive heritage dating back to World War II.

The 4xe is also the only mainstream plug-in hybrid SUV with any appreciable off-road ability. By the way, Jeep uses a “four by E” pronunciation for this midsize SUV, a play on the 4×4 term. And plug-in hybrid is often shortened to PHEV (plug-in hybrid electric vehicle).

Just to clarify, the 2022 Wrangler 4xe isn’t completely electric. It has a gasoline engine on board as well. If the battery runs low, the 4xe will still get its occupants home. Since this is a 4-door Wrangler, those occupants will also enjoy a fair amount of space on the way.

The battery can be recharged through things like brake energy regeneration, or it can be plugged in to an outside source.

The regular Wrangler Unlimited has its own review. So does the 2022 Wrangler 2-door model.
