@@BreckoniousMaximus I have a 2 door sport wrangler tuned myself with JB4 on 94 octane and methanol injection, also has an intake and a custom 2.75" exhaust all the way back. Ported hot side turbine inlet and ported cylinder head outlet too. made 333 hp and 470 lb/ft of torque to the wheels. It runs mid to low 13's in good weather and with good traction. It's even got a hard top still. when I swap to a soft top, put in a 3" downpipe with high flow cat and a mishimoto charge pipe, re tuned, hoping to hit 12's in the quarter mile.

4xe…. Totally different results…. It’s problematically fast.

[@dcar7446]

Yep you'd probably need the V6 with a tune to beat the 4xe that 2.7 twin turbo is potent in the f150 especially with a tune and performance exhaust

[@j4yp3r]

Any electric vehicle will always be faster than a conventional fuel engine because of 100% instant torque availability. This is the first year of Bronco so it would not be prudent to create an electric version Bronco. The first generation all electric F150 comes out in 2022 and does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds which easily outperforms the 4xE. The future electric Bronco will surpass even the F150.

[@Blake_Jordan]

Tire size makes a huge difference in races like these. And two of them have aftermarket wheels and tires that way much more than the factory ones on that four-cylinder jeep

[@christophermitchell4827]

Why not use the 2.7L ecoboost with the twin turbo on the Bronco for a better engine size match?

Because it's not an apples to apples comparison. They are comparing a 4 cylinder turbo 2.3 with 300hp 330tq vs 2 motors that produce slightly less hp & tq.

[@eyeofhoruswadjet4236]

Wonder if it limits boost in 1st and 2nd gear like my Fiesta ST. With a tune that limiter goes away.

[@theaxeman8492]

Great video guys. It would be good to at least point out the tire size differences. If you put that Outer Banks back on its stock wheel/tire setup, the results may have been different vs. the 2.0 Jeep which is rocking small tires and therefore has lower rolling resistance. I know that when these opportunities come up you just take what you can get - and it still shows performance pretty well - I just think that those differences should be mentioned. Keep putting out great 🇨🇦 content!

I was more interested to see the 3.0 EcoDiesel but I'd rather take the 3.6 Penterstar since it's a reliable engine. And that 2.0 turbo in the Wrangler is a beast, it's a detuned 4cyl from Alfa Romeo and from driving my mother's Stelvio Sport Ti it's a blast of a engine.

[@cschwehr]

This man is right. I've got a 3.6L Mojave and a 2.0L eTorque Wrangler and the 3.6L isn't a rocket but it's just fine for normal days and driving.. Then the 2.0L is seriously so powerful in the Wrangler that you need to be aware about spinning tires on corners and stuff... It's not your 2008 JK-era, "noise but no effect" Wrangler. Haha The 2.0L paired with electric in the 4xe must be a total rocket for acceleration, but I haven't test driven one yet at the dealership.

The 2.0 vs 2.3 race was impressive considering how much more factory power and torque the 2.3 makes over the 2.0. That 2.0 s no slouch, though. On the dyno it pulls 47lbs-ft more torque to the wheels than the 3.6 Wrangler does, and it builds power very quickly, all the way to peak torque.

It doesn't make sense to bring it back since the 3.6 has more power and better efficiency and the Penterstar has been reliable powertrian. Stellantis specifically FCA US downsized to the 3.2 in Cherokee and 3.6 Penterstar rather than having multiple V6's in the early and mid 2000's.
