2022 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Trims Comparison

2022 Wrangler 4xe trim level differences

The Jeep Wrangler is an SUV available as a two-door model or as a four-door model called the Unlimited. The two-door Wrangler is available in two main trim levels: Sport and Rubicon. There are also a few subtrims based on the Sport: Willys Sport, Sport S, Willys and Altitude. The four-door Wrangler Unlimited offers the additional choice of the Sahara, the 4xe plug-in hybrid (Sahara or Rubicon trim only) and the Rubicon 392. Most Wranglers come with a part-time four-wheel-drive system with low-range gearing. A full-time 4WD system is optional.

The 4xe's plug-in hybrid powertrain produces 375 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque. It's connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive. Other feature highlights include:
