2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Photos, engines & full specs

Jeep introduced a new 2024 Wrangler at the Easter Jeep Safari, at the same time as the unveiling at the 2023 NYIAS, and the 4xe version was one of the most sought-after versions of this well-known off-roader.

When the American automaker introduced a plug-in version of the Wrangler in 2021, customers were stunned. It was difficult to believe that a BEV could cope with off-road situations. Still, the vehicle proved its worthiness, and it became the best PHEV in America for two years in a row.

For the new model, based on the JL Wrangler, the 4xe version came with a redesigned front fascia. This included a smaller seven-slat grille incorporated in a body-colored panel. That was flanked by deep-dish LED headlights, which were better protected against bushes, branches, and other off-road situations. In addition, the 4xe featured blue anchoring hooks at the new, redesigned bumper. The carmaker offered as an option a factory-mounted Warn winch. Another upgrade for the car was the deletion of the aerial antenna, which was traditionally mounted on the right side of the vehicle. That was moved into the windshield. A 4xe-specific feature was the outlet plug that was placed on the left-rear quarter panel. Thus, the car could power various camping appliances, and the engine could be transformed into a gas-powered generator.

The interior was heavily upgraded with a new 12" landscape-mounted touchscreen for the infotainment system. This Connect 5 unit replaced the former 8" one and also featured Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Unlike previous Wrangler models, the 2024 version featured power seats and lumbar adjustments for both front occupants. In the four-door (Unlimited) version, the 4xe came with a flat-folding bench fit for three. With that folded down, owners could transform the vehicle into a camper.

There were no significant changes on the engine side, but the Dana 44 axle was an improvement. Moreover, it was also provided with a locking differential.
