Awesome Jeep Wrangler

SoFlo Customs created this over-the-top Jeep Wrangler that seats up to 10 passengers. Its lifted suspension, chunky tires, winch, and fog lights are off-roading staples, but its extra-long wheelbase and luxurious interior materials make it more of a limousine for cruising the tame tarmac of South Beach.

After driving Jeep’s plug-in-hybrid Wrangler 4xe, we spent a week with a high-torque Wrangler of a very different flavor. The 392 model packs a 6.4L HEMI V8 that makes 470 hp and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds. The Rubicon Unlimited trim means it’s fully kitted out for off-roading. It’s got an awesome exhaust note too.

Jeep’s most capable off-road SUV now comes in a plug-in hybrid. We spent a day driving the Wrangler 4xe on and off-roads around Austin, Texas, putting its powerful drivetrain to the test. Not only does the 4xe have 375hp and 470 lb-ft. of torque, it can drive up to 21 miles on pure electric power and does 0-to-60 in 6 seconds.

Celebrate your love for off-roading with this LEGO Technic model of the 2-door Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4×4. The 665-piece kit includes details like front steering, articulated suspension, fold-down rear seats, and a hood and doors that can open. Naturally, it’s got a spare tire on the back in case you catch a flat. Drops 1.1.2021.

After showing off in concept form, the V8-powered Wrangler is going into production. Packing a 6.4L HEMI engine that makes 470 hp and 470 lb-ft. of torque, the 4×4 can zoom from 0-to-60 in just 4.5 sec. yet is still as off-road capable as other Rubicons, with a 2-inch factory lift, FOX shocks, and 33″ tires on 17″ beadlock-capable rims.

Jeep hasn’t made a Wrangler with a V8 since 1981, but is teasing us with a concept 4×4 that packs a 6.4L engine making 450 hp and 450 lb-ft. of torque. It also rocks a 2-inch lift kit, Dana 44 axles, electric front- and rear-axle lockers, 37″ mud-terrain tires, and a sub-5 second 0-to-60 time. Here’s hoping they put it into production.

Off-road vehicles are designed to be capable of handling extremely rugged terrain. But builder Liberman’s remote-controlled cardboard and popsicle stick model of a Jeep Wrangler is anything but durable. Sure, it looks really cool, but riding through wet and muddy ruts means it’s gonna need frequent tire changes.

We’ve spent quite a bit of time on- and off-road with the latest Jeep Wrangler, and it’s the best one yet, offering easier removal of body parts, better on-road handling, tons of modern tech, and still as capable as ever. Read on for some of our favorite aspects of the new Wrangler.
