Army-targeted inch wheelbase, curb weight of under 2, pounds with 4WD, and powered by a hp 2. By , however, the newer Jeep Wrangler version of the CJ models, with the standard 2. Even with standard rear-wheel-drive, a Cherokee with the 2.
With modern technology expanding the lineup into compacts and subcompacts—along with strict EPA fuel mileage standards—the current Jeeps are the most fuel-efficient ever built. One way to do this is to go with a fuel-efficient used Jeep model. If you prefer an automatic, a nine-speed is offered paired to a larger 2. That model has been replaced by the Jeep Grand Cherokee L , an all-new model on a new platform, with three rows of seats instead of two, on sale Spring No Wagoneer or Grand Wagoneer will be trail-rated, as the vehicle has too big a footprint to meet these standards.
It adds just three horses to the 1. The trail-rated version is called the Renegade Trailhawk. It comes with the hp, 1.
Hurry, though. The X is the last new Fiat available in U. Substantially larger and far more capable off road, the Jeep Wrangler two-door, when equipped with a 2. All new Wranglers come with 4WD. The Wrangler Unlimited four-door is available with the 3. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe four-door is worth mentioning, because when it arrives in the U. Jeep estimates 50 mpg-e equivalent combined fuel mileage for the plug-in hybrid, with its 17 killowatt-hour electric motor attached to the eight-speed automatic transmission.
Combined with the 2. More steel bumpers, bigger tires, and other upgrades add to the weight of the vehicle, therefore more fuel needed. So does this mean that all Jeeps are terrible fuel hogs? This is not entirely the case. As with any other car manufacturing brand out there, different Jeep models have different gas mileage ratings.
Judging from this list, it looks like Jeep has finally made changes to some of its latest models. These later models are much more fuel-efficient than their older counterparts. This might be due to complaints from the market.
If more people kept complaining about fuel efficiency and their gas not lasting as long as on other cars, Jeep might have improved on their latest offerings. Take note that these 27 miles per gallon are the combined city and highway driving average. Another factor that allows Jeep to get more fuel-efficient cars into the market is that they can make both 4 wheel drive and 2 wheel drive vehicles of the same model.
Both models have front-wheel-drive systems, meaning that the power from the engine is delivered to the front wheel tires only. Keep in mind that city driving and highway driving can consume different amounts of fuel.
This means stopping at intersections, accelerating and slowing down more often due to shorter street lengths. This saves the car from working overtime and therefore it uses less fuel. Another huge factor that needs to be considered is the driving habits of the driver.
An inexperienced driver can use way more fuel than is necessary. These two models have been known to consume quite a lot of fuel than their competitors. And again we can see a huge improvement for these models because earlier models were far worse than this. Older Wrangler models were known to get a dismal 18 miles per gallon on average.
In these offerings, we can see quite a significant change in fuel efficiency. Modern technologies might be one of the factors at play here. With technology, Jeep can introduce electronics to efficiently control fuel consumption. As advanced fuel control technologies evolve, we will eventually see more fuel-efficient cars on the roads. Jeeps are built for offroading and so it goes without saying that they are different from the average everyday car.
A Jeep has to have towing power as well. The Jeep needs all the power and weight to be a workhorse when you need it to be. All this weight means more fuel consumed by the Jeep and therefore more costs.
