The 2023 Jeep Wrangler has style and all-terrain-tackling capabilities. It’s a classic SUV that, in its latest iteration, remains an absolute standout in the off-road SUV world, thanks to great engine options and sophisticated, helpful technology.

Incredible Options for Power

There are five engines to choose from with this year’s Wrangler. The standard 3.6-liter V6 makes 285 horsepower, while the next-in-line turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder makes 270 horsepower. Another V6, this time 3.0-liter, makes 260 horsepower. The Rubicon 392 trim really takes things to the next level, providing a 6.4-liter V8 engine that makes a mammoth 470 horsepower and gets you from 0 to 60 in 4.5 seconds.

Off-Road Like Never Before

This is a car built for any and all terrains. Four-wheel-drive comes standard, as do skid plates and low-range gearing. The available Xtreme Recon Package adds things like 35-inch tires, a 47.4-degree approach angle, a 40.4-degree departure angle, a best-in-class 12.9 inches of ground clearance, and 33.6 inches of water fording depth. The Rubicon offers a best-in-class crawl ratio of 100:1 when paired with manual transmission.

A Rugged, Stylish Interior

Inside the Wrangler, enjoy a rugged cabin that mirrors the sturdiness of the exterior. Hard plastics and chunky knobs and dials are easy to use and will be immune to the elements you’re likely to face when you remove the Wrangler’s doors and roof and enjoy the open air. The design is reminiscent of a classic retro Jeep while still feeling contemporary. Choose between the two-door and four-door options depending on how much cargo you’re looking to move.

Plenty of Impressive Tech

Both the standard 7-inch and available 8.4-inch touchscreens, powered by Jeep’s Uconnect infotainment system, are straightforward and delightfully responsive. Physical buttons across the dashboard control things like audio and climate. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, and a potent eight-speaker stereo all come with the base trim. Upgrading to higher trims will see you enjoying things like navigation, satellite radio, HD Radio, and a nine-speaker stereo.

Turn your car into a workstation thanks to Wi-Fi Hotspot and connect up to eight devices at once. There’s also driver-assistance features available with the Wrangler so you can enjoy peace of mind on the open road. These include rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, a forward-facing camera, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, automatic high-beam headlights, forward collision warning, and forward automatic emergency braking. A rearview camera comes standard.

This year’s Wrangler is a must-have for drivers looking to hit the road less traveled. To take a new or used model for a test drive, or to get your current car serviced, come by Patterson Kilgore Group in Kilgore, TX, today.
