One of the wonderful things about the new Jeep Wrangler is the wide range of engines available in it. If you use it for your commute in Mayfield, a plug-in hybrid model (Wrangler 4xe) returns excellent fuel economy. If you expect to be driving through thick mud or over large obstacles, the 470-horsepower V8 engine in the Wrangler Rubicon 392 model may be your best bet. David Taylor CDJR of Mayfield has written the following piece to help you decide which of the five Wrangler powertrains to get.
285-Horsepower V6 Engine
The new Jeep Wrangler comes standard with a 285-horsepower V6 engine that provides plenty of zip for everyday driving. It also returns 20 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway when paired with the automatic transmission.
Turbocharged 270-Horsepower Four-Cylinder Engine
An available turbocharged 270-horsepower four-cylinder engine in the new Jeep Wrangler gets better gas mileage, earning 22 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.
260-Horsepower Turbodiesel V6 Engine
An optional 260-horsepower turbodiesel V6 engine delivers more low-rpm muscle than the base V6, enabling the Wrangler to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in around eight seconds. Mayfield drivers will appreciate that this engine gets 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
375-Horsepower Plug-In Hybrid Engine
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe variant is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric motor that combine to make 375 horsepower. This plug-in hybrid powertrain nets 49 MPG-equivalent when operating in hybrid mode. People in Mayfield will like its 21-mile all-electric driving range.
470-Horsepower V8 Engine
For the most power and speed, go with the Wrangler's available 470-horsepower V8 engine (Rubicon 392). With this motor, the Wrangler can rocket from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds. Mayfield drivers will appreciate that this engine enables the four-door Wrangler to tow up to 3,500 pounds.
