The 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon X Brings Luxury & Capability To Open Air Freedom

The off-road American icon gets very extensive changes for 2024. The revised #JeepWrangler returns with a few new trims, including a first-ever #WranglerRubiconX trim which combines the off-road capability with some added luxury features. The #Wrangler4xe also returns with a new entry-level Sport S trim, bringing the price of entry down by about $5,000. The new #Wrangler goes on sale later this summer.

[@Ethanjbo135]

Gotta spread the EV development costs around. ICE vehicles are gonna help pay for it until EVs can build at scale and their prices fall. Ford reported that won’t happen until sometime after 2030. I expect this trend to continue on these SUVs and trucks.

Your review was by far the best compared to the other reviews I've seen of the 2024 models. You covered absolutely everything!

[@fowzst]

It’s so good to watch a review that comes from someone who really has real world experience with these models and is clear and knowledgeable. Loved it.

[@johndc7446]

The 2024 wrangler in my opinion looks cooler than any bronco, land rover and g class in the market. Jeep nailed this one. A tactical design update of the wrangler is the way to go. The 2023 wrangler grille design is also cool but this new 2024 grille design is a great option.

[@RICARDOABECH]

I have to disagree. It looks pretty much the same as the prior versions. Still looks cool in my opinion, but I would rate on the lower side of the scale comparing with Bronco, G Wagon and Defender. But everyone has different taste. SO all cool

[@johndc7446]

@@RICARDOABECH I agree it all comes down to preference. I never really liked the look of the Gwagon from the start. long time ago before the Gwagon became very famous in the internet I was always wondering why that car was so popular and the moment I saw its price and specs my view of the car slightly changed. For me the design is not that good but the main selling point are the spacings of the components and factory paint. Mercedes is one of those companies who take spacings in doors, hoods and grilles very seriously. That they probably have a specialist that inspects spacing in the last line of production. American cars on the other hand are on the worst side next to japanese. They dont bother too much about it and also the factory paint is not that good.

[@AiJaiDeeSaMer]

But how about gas mileage? Does it even come close to those new Hybrids RA4 Toyota? You can do 450-500 miles on a full tank of gas with a new Toyota so nothing beats that so far. 😅

[@johndc7446]

@@AiJaiDeeSaMer Jeep wrangler has a 4xe version and by paper has significantly better mileage when using combined than the 2024 rav4 hybrid. And respectfully I dont consider the Rav4 in the class of these vehicles. The Rav4 is more like a Honda CRV and Grand Cherokee class. The Rav4 is still great. Toyota makes one of the most reliable cars.

[@AiJaiDeeSaMer]

@@johndc7446 I have been a Toyota buyer for the last 30 years and love every single one of them( the most reliable car out in the street) which gives me a piece of mind when traveling long distances. Only have to change oil every three or four months. I also had a brand new American truck( F150) for only a few years but had to sell it due to the high gas price and other reasons.

[@neerajsaxena]

I have always been in love with Jeep Wrangler because of its off-road capabilities. This vehicle always looks stunning and rigged. It has so many features and toughness everyone loves this car. The wheels look amazing and the design is bold and beautiful. A perfect vehicle for camping, off-roading, and family trips.

[@skid_mark]

Brilliant review, as always. 😊 I will say, however, that as the driver of the vehicle, I do not actually care whether my back seat passengers can recline. The type of people buying a Wrangler probably won't care either. Still love what you do tho'. 👍

They’re charging $2000 for a winch that cost $1400. And its only an 8000 pound winch. Should be 10,000 pounds minimum.

[@jessicamichael6565]

It’s true but that $600 difference is profit, cost to ensure it can be warrantable and they’ll fix it when it brakes, cost to test and ensure it’s safe. Actually a great deal.

[@outsidewithdj]

@@Mtntime every warn winch has warranty for 7 years. If Jeep barely comes through with warranty for basic issues . I doubt they’ll care to fix a winch that isn’t manufactured by themselves. It’s honestly sad they chose to use 8000 pound winch. The jeep weighs close to 5k pounds or even more. That winch isn’t gonna be so reliable for the weight of the Jeep

[@sandp.7472]

For those commenting about the prices, its a practice called "Price over Volume" and its common. Instead of the old model of selling more stuff, now it's sell less, but sell it for more money. US automakers have been doing this for years but post pandemic have began phasing out low cost models and focusing on the higher end. Americans tend to "buy up" instead of down and are more willing to go into debt for things they want. Auto makers charge these prices because they can, knowing people will still buy. Why bother with more customers when you can have fewer and still make more money. Sometimes this backfires, but its a safe assumption the days of more affordable vehicles, many goods actually, is over. Once prices go up, its rare they ever go back down.

[@diannad8905]

Ok, wow....we rented a jeep for our MOAB trip and we were bit! We've wanted a Jeep forever, and having one for a trip like that (we have a motorhome) really expanded what we could do, see, enjoy on that trip.

$90k, come on…..looks like the average wrangler (body wise) I love wrangler and own a 2012 unlimited but will never spend over $40k on a wrangler.

[@zalllon]

Now that I’m doing a little bit more offloading, I have been considering getting a jeep Rubicon trading in my 4Runner. However, with the integration of the antenna into the windshield, that is something I struggle with. I do like the option of the wedge, being a factory or dealer install, assuming all the wiring is tidy. But that windshield thing, considering just the mild off Roading I’ve been doing and looking to do more extreme trails. I’ve already replaced my windshield once in a year, add some of my buddies that have gladiators and unlimited’s average plays in their windshield once a year.

[@NorthWestAutos]

If you end up buying one you should consider getting a Windshield Protection Package. You can change 3 windshields for price of 1. Just check with you sales person for the exact cost.

[@johnreno8909]

Friends, does anyone know if this is true or not? That before 2016 Pentastar 3.6 was problematic and was not reliable and not durable and also had less resources. (It had a low lifespan) However, since 2016, they say that it was fixed and now it is a new and good motor. Is this true or not??

The only issue with me is the cost of it. Yes, I know comparable vehicles are expensive too…. But let’s say someone is cross shopping a wrangler with a 4Runner. The 4Runner (currently) is more dated, but ride refinement is comparable in my opinion. But spending $50k on a 4Runner, a person knows it’s going to go for 300k miles easily with only oil changes. Spending it on a car with potentially less reliability is a kicker to me. Especially if the price goes to $60-70-80.

Respectfully the show stopper is NOT the 12” screen. It’s the 392, front / rear lockers and winch. Nice job on the review.

it's absolutely fantastic. the only 2 things are really heartbreaking: those two things are: 1. no 360-cam. and 2. horrible second row seats. especially the back of the seat of the second row absolutely horrible. I mean specifically the recline position of the back of the seat just 6-inches more recline would make those seats absolutely normal for just 15cm would make it totally different story.

[@theredline]

No, the Rubicon 4xe and Rubicon 392 cannot tow 5,000 lbs, they max out at 3,500 due to the increased weight of those powertrains.

Is 8000lbs enough for a winch? Everyone I know has 10 or 12000

[@vigilantemotors]

A common rule of thumb is to simply double the weight of your vehicle. A 4 door Sahara weighs around 4800 lbs. and a Rubi 392 about 5200. So, either way an 8000lb winch just doesn't really cut it

[@Ken-qq6gp]

@vigilantemotors exactly and I wonder why companies don't do their research before proceeding with production?
