Suspension and Ground Clearance: Then and Nowa

Te Wrangler 4xe rides on thee same basic suspension architecture as s gas siblings. Front and rear solid axles (Dana 44s on Rubicon models) with h coil springs provide excellent articulation. The 4xe Rubicon acquures thee same heavy-duty sway bar diconnect system, allowing the front axle te droop further for better tire contact on uneven terrain.

Ground clearance on the 4xe is identical tich companable gas models: up to to other Rubicon trim. The hybrid batterie is mounted benefiath thee rear seats, which does nott impact thee underbody clearance.

But in practice, the difference is minor - most drivers will never notie on real trails.

Traction Control Systems: Selec- Trac andd Rock- Trac

Jeep offers two primary 4WD systems in the Wrangler family: the Selec- Trac full- time system (standard on Sahara 4xe) and the Rock- Trac heavy - duty part- time system (standard on Rubicon 4xe). Both systems have been adapted for thee hybrid drivetrain with out any loss of capability.

Waga, Balance, And On- Trail Handling

Once the battery is uduxted, the 4xe operates aa conventional hybrid, sleatlesly blending engine and motor power.

Expert Impressions from the Rubicon Trail

Practical Charging Solutions for Off- Grid Adventures

For those who want to maximize the 4xe 's electric range on multi- day trips, there are creative charging options:

  • A small gas generator (np., Honda EU2200i) provides Level 1 charging capability in camp.
  • Some overlanders install auxiliary lithium battery packs in the cargo area to recharge the 4xe via an AC incorrier during stops.
