St. George, Utah — When you have a vehicle with as loyal a group of owners as this, you make changes very cautiously. Jeep has kept the best of what makes the Wrangler a perennial favourite for off-roaders, but added enhancements that make it even better.
2024 Jeep Wrangler Release Date
Jeep says the 2024 Wrangler will arrive at dealers late Spring 2023; orders are now open. Prices range from the low $30,000s US ($40,000s CAD) to $87,595 US ($114,270 CAD) for the range-topping Rubicon 392—full pricing at the end of this article.
All trim levels now offer a front bumper shaped to accommodate an optional factory-installed 3,628 kg (8,000 lb.)-capacity Warn winch (pretty much an off-roading essential). To accommodate the front-mounted winch, Jeep created a shallower seven-slot grill.

What’s new to the 2024 Jeep Wrangler
Inside, Jeep has added a modernized instrument and screen cluster, with a 12.3-inch infotainment screen that is visible even in full sunlight and side curtain airbags. Outside, the antenna has finally been integrated into the windshield.
Jeep has partnered with U.S.-based Adventure Guides to provide 200 detailed offroad maps free for 24 months and up to 3,000 maps on subscription. Only two Canadian trails are offered, both in Labrador, although Jeep officials say more trails will be added as trail riders submit data.
2024 Jeep Wrangler Engine Options: From Hybrid to HEMI
| Engine | Horsepower | Torque |
|---|---|---|
| 2.0L turbo PHEV 4xe | 375-hp | 470 lb.-ft. |
| 2.0L turbo I4 | 270-hp | 295 lb.-ft. |
| 3.6L V6 | 285-hp | 260 lb.-ft. |
| 6.4L V8 | 470-hp | 470 lb.-ft. |
The 2024 Wrangler comes with four powertrain options, ranging from a spirited 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder, with a rated 270 horsepower, 295 lb.-ft. of torque, right up to the very beefy 6.4-litre V8, which delivers 470 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque. In between those extremes is the ubiquitous and time-tested Pentastar 3.6-litre V6, rated at 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque.
We look at each engine in more detail here – Jeep Wrangler Engine Options: 4 Powertrains to Choose From
The 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Hybrid: Really an off-road SUV?
- 375 horsepower (combined motor & engine)
- 470 lb.-ft. of torque
- 8P75PH PHEV automatic transmission, eight-speed Overdrive
- Standard (all ESS models); all Wrangler 4xe models
The fuel-efficient 4xe, a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) combines the 2.0-litre turbo engine with a 400-volt, 17-kWh battery pack that drives two electric motors. The 4xe’s powertrain delivers a combined 375 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque, more than enough for highway driving and for crawling through the boondocks.
It is efficient and powerful on the highway. Still, on the trail, there was an annoying surge as the vehicle transitioned from electric to ICE power in tricky rock-crawling manoeuvres. Jeep has also improved the Wrangler’s agility, with room for bigger tires, more ground clearance, and a floating rear axle on the Rubicon.
2024 Jeep Wrangler Interior: Fit to purpose, from spartan to plush
The entry-level Sport trim level is no frills, although even the cheapest Wrangler now comes with a modern 12.3” infotainment touchscreen. At the other extreme is the top-end Rubicon 392, which features deep red leather seats with stitched trim and extra sound deadening. Even so, be prepared for road noise at all trim levels compared to more multi-purpose SUVs.
The Wrangler comes with Stellantis’s latest Uconnect 5 interface and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. The onboard navigation system includes mapping for more than 300 trails, although all but two are for U.S. trails. A front-facing camera is a welcome addition. Interior space is still pretty limited, with a maximum of 784 litres of volume behind the back seat in the four-door model.

Tested: the new 2024 Wrangler’s off-road abilities
The enhanced driver tech, improved clearances, and options for up to 35-inch wheels are clear responses to features in Ford’s Bronco. But these changes, combined with enhanced driver tech (like a new front-facing camera), make the new Wrangler both more capable and easier to take off-road.
A gnarly journey through deep sand and over seemingly impossible rock formations in southwestern Utah drove the point home. The deep drop-offs and steep angles punctuated what makes this rugged body-on-frame SUV a perennial off-roader’s favourite.
The new Wrangler is slightly more comfortable than its predecessors, but it still puts the accent on off-road performance rather than on-road cushiness. Other competitors are quieter and highway-friendly. But they invariably compromise off-road capability in the name of creature comfort. The Wrangler remains one of the best vehicles for beating through the backwoods.
