2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4xe

2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4xe Keen to test the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe, (pronounced 'four-by-E'), I was piloting, and to tempt fate a bit, I dropped the tire pressure down to 15 PSI, pulled the transfer case lever down from all wheel drive, (yes, it has AWD), into 4 Low, and throttled forward. Having depleted the battery charge earlier, the 4xe was in Hybrid mode, which utilized both the gas engine and the electric motor generator for forward propulsion. Overlandexpo.com, 2021  For consignment, a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4xe with a title verified 50,234 actual miles. The onboard batteries charge through the use of the gas engine but this example comes with a 110 hook up and a home kit for quick charge, as well as a transferable 3 ½ year extended warranty. Exterior If you're going to hit the trail, you might as well let it show, and show it will with the Bright White Clearcoat paint that adorns this big rig. It covers the solid roof that frames a black canvas top, the fenders, and the iconic Jeep grille up front, but the bumpers stand out with big black proportions and blue tow hooks. There's other blue as well, to denote this Jeep's hybrid status, with an offset graphic on the hood, blue framing on the Rubicon lettering, inside the Trail Rated badge, and on the Wrangler fender decals. The 17-inch wheels hold LT285/70R17's with an early 2021 date code. Imperfections are few and include some scuffs and several chips.  Interior Robust black plastic door panels present cleanly and include stitched and padded armrests, storage nets, and brushed nickel door handles and all four doors present cleanly. Dark Saddle leather bucket seats occupy the front with Rubicon stitched in white and while the saddle leather makes it to the back row, the stitching does not but features retractable headrests and all the seats are in nice shape. Big proportions are found in the thick steering wheels, switchgear, and shifter of the instrument cluster, center stack, and center console. An AM/FM/CD player with Uconnect, XM capability, 4G hotspot, CarPlay/Android, and Bluetooth make this utility vehicle with a storied heritage leap into the 21st century. Stitched padding and a grab handle is afforded to the passenger and a center screen controls many of the interior functions. The rear cargo area is replete with tie downs and plenty of carpeted storage space. Drivetrain Our dusty engine bay is home to a 2.0 liter DOHC turbo inline 4 cylinder and it works with dual electric motors to create a combined 375 horsepower. That's mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission with power landing at Dana 44 TruLok axles at both ends, each with 4.10 gears.   Undercarriage Some trail dirt still clings to the underside but overall, we have clean and structurally sound conditions. The single exhaust still travels through the original muffler and four wheel power disc brakes are on board. There's a lift kit on the suspension which is a 4 link with coil springs at both ends.  Drive-Ability No complaints here as the big tires and high ride roll over our blacktop with ease and there's plenty of usable power underfoot. The dash has more buttons than an arcade and the screen has more functions than your phone, but it's all arranged in a logical, intuitive design. Better yet, everything works as intended and it's off to the truck room for this big white rig. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.  Now you can eat your cake and have it too! 4x4's are not known for great gas mileage, but the window sticker on this model claimed 49mpg when electric and gas were used together. Now you can rip through nature, (on the trails, of course), and save the planet at the same time!   1C4JJXR60MW676338 1-USA C-Chrysler 4-MPV J-6001 To 7000 GVWR J-Unlimited X-Rubicon 4 Door R-Exte
