Not in a malicious way, but in a \u201cI could\ntackle that curb,\u201d or a driving through rather than around potholes and other\nroad obstacles kind of way. Of course, that\u2019s what the Wrangler was built for:\ntackling obstacles with aplomb and handling nearly any off-road condition you\ncan throw at it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 2018, the\niconic Wrangler was redesigned, but in a way that honored its sacred heritage\nand, in fact, improved on many of the features that make it a perennial\nfavorite. It\u2019s been 11 years since the last update, and what hasn\u2019t changed is\nthat the new JL is still the most off-road capable vehicle you can buy. To the\nnaked eye, Wrangler remains much the same, still eliciting the famous \u201cJeep\nnod\u201d from fellow enthusiasts, but the changes run deep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"go-anywhere-with-ease\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go Anywhere with Ease<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>First,\nimprovements were made to optimize the on-road driving dynamics, reduce weight,\nand improve fuel economy. These include using high-strength, lightweight aluminum\nclosures, and hollow track and stabilizer bars. The five-link coil suspension\nhas been re-tuned to create a more comfortable road feel on the pavement, and\nthe shocks have been recalibrated to give greater balance between on-road\nhandling and off-road capability. Electro-hydraulic power steering delivers a more\npleasant, less vibrato steering feel, and helps improve fuel economy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jeep drivers who\nplan to use Wrangler in the manner it was designed for \u2013 off-road exploration \u2013\nwill appreciate the Trail Rated 4&#215;4 capability, and the ease with which the new\nWrangler converts to an open-air SUV. The Rubicon model tested here was\nequipped with an all-new premium Sunrider soft top, that retracts quickly and\neasily thanks to clock springs. No more debating whether it\u2019s worth the time\nand frustration to remove the top, and dreading the labor of putting it back on.\nThe new top is quieter on the road than previous cloth tops, but on a long road\ntrip to Las Vegas, my kids still asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s that noise?\u201d once we picked up\nspeed on the freeway. Still, Wrangler\u2019s on-road manners are vastly improved,\nrendering it more than tolerable as an everyday driver and a go-anywhere\nadventurer. While wind noise was still an issue at higher speeds, road\nvibration and harshness are not. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Sky One-Touch\npower top is available on four-door Sierra and Rubicon models. A black (or body\ncolor on the Sahara and Rubicon) hardtop option is available as well, offering\neven more open-air options. The windshield still folds, but this operation,\ntoo, has been simplified, using a four-bolt design at the top. And a new\nheadbar connected to the A-pillars keeps the rearview mirror in place when the\nwindshield is down. New lightweight doors are also removable, and the Torx bit\ntool size is stamped onto the hinge to eliminate guess work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"brawn-and-beauty\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brawn and Beauty<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As expected,\nWrangler still boasts industry-leading capability, with improved approach,\ndeparture, and breakover angles. Four skid plates protect critical vehicle\ncomponents, and Rubicon models get steel rock rails to guard against body\ndamage. It has a ground clearance of 10.9 inches and can ford up to 30 inches\nof water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\"wp-image-5705 pk-lazyload\"  width=\"329\"  height=\"217\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 329px) 100vw, 329px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172309\/JP018_224WRa5gok2fp9g1jv5k0afmelarpud-750x500.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172309\/JP018_224WRa5gok2fp9g1jv5k0afmelarpud-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172309\/JP018_224WRa5gok2fp9g1jv5k0afmelarpud-670x440.jpg 670w\" ><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course,\nWrangler still sports its iconic profile and seven-slot grille, but with a\nlowered beltline and larger windows for better visibility. Inside, the look is\nrugged, yet stylish, with high-quality materials and precision craftmanship.\nMost functions are controlled via a standard five-inch or available seven- or\n8.4-inch touchscreen. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are available via the\nfourth-generation Uconnect system. There are plenty of storage areas\nthroughout, four USB ports, 12-volt accessory outlets, and a 115-volt AC\noutlet. You\u2019ll travel in comfort during even the most rugged excursions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Wrangler\nRubicon was powered by the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, paired with the\noptional eight-speed automatic transmission, and delivering 285-horsepower. It\nwas smooth and efficient under all driving conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The appeal of the\nWrangler is unmatched in the SUV world. It is the original, and still the best\n\u2013&nbsp;made even better by recent tech, engineering, comfort, and design\nrefinements. It can make even the most reticent driver feel badass, even if you\ndon\u2019t want to drive over stuff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"vital-stats\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vital Stats<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABAQMAAAAl21bKAAAAA1BMVEUAAP+KeNJXAAAAAXRSTlMAQObYZgAAAAlwSFlzAAAOxAAADsQBlSsOGwAAAApJREFUCNdjYAAAAAIAAeIhvDMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=\"  alt=\"\"  class=\"wp-image-5707 pk-lazyload\"  width=\"189\"  height=\"252\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 189px) 100vw, 189px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-750x1000.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-750x1000.jpg 750w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-380x507.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-800x1067.jpg 800w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-80x107.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-60x80.jpg 60w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-620x827.jpg 620w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738-850x1133.jpg 850w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/18172313\/IMG_0738.jpg 1125w\" ><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Jeep Wrangler is available in four trims (two- or four-door): <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sport ($27,945; $31,445), Sport S\n($31,145; $34,645), Sahara (four-door only, $38,295), Rubicon ($37,945;\n$41,445) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Price as tested:<\/strong> $54,200<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fuel economy as tested (city\/highway\/combined):<\/strong> 18\/23\/20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Improving on its iconic heritage, Jeep Wrangler will go anywhere and look good doing it. \n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":5702,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[278,400,163,216,12,46,739,234,275,738],"class_list":{"0":"post-5701","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-car-reviews","8":"tag-arizona-foothills-magazine","9":"tag-arizona-foothills-magazine-vroom","10":"tag-becky-antioco","11":"tag-car-review","12":"tag-featured","13":"tag-jeep","14":"tag-jeep-wrangler","15":"tag-test-drive","16":"tag-vroom","17":"tag-wrangler","18":"cs-entry","19":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
