The Jeep brand started migrating to electric-powered vehicles with the release of the new Jeep Wrangler 4xe and the new Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe. Since then, the company's nine-decade-long history of automobile excellence continues with its first plugin hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) releases.
Beginning with the 2023 Jeep model lineup, the Jeep brand is expanding its electric and plugin hybrid models. The 2023 electric lineup includes two plugin hybrid models that provide the rugged durability of the Jeep brand along with the latest engine technologies. The 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is a success in North America and Europe. The Grand Cherokee remains the most awarded SUV in history, with the plugin hybrid changing how the Jeep brand is viewed.
The switch to electric and hybrid powertrains will kick into high gear during 2024 with the launch of three all-electric models. As Jeep continues to develop a series of all-electric and plugin hybrid vehicles, Paul Bailey's Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram near North Kingstown is proud to provide our Rhode Island customers access to the latest models.
Performance
Whether drivers want to explore the great outdoors or enjoy driving around Providence, plugin hybrid technology makes all driving options a breeze. The latest plugin hybrid technology from Jeep combines the power of a gasoline engine with electric motors adding savings on gas usage. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe plugin hybrid has a 2.0-liter DOHC DI turbocharged I4 engine. Drivers need not be concerned about a power drop-off with plugin hybrid technology, with 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. The Grand Cherokee also uses a 2.0-liter engine and electric motor combination, with three driving modes available to suit every experience. Jeep has included a 17-kWh lithium-ion battery pack to help keep drivers on the road using electric power for extended periods. The Grand Cherokee 4xe has enough ab to tow up to 6,000 pounds of the trailer or camping equipment to a favorite spot.
Off-Roading is Just as Fun in a 2023 Jeep Plugin Hybrid
The 2023 electric Jeep models have all the power and performance needed to head off the beaten path. The Grand Cherokee 4xe has an all-electric driving range of an EPA-estimated 25 miles. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is capable of an EPA-estimated 22 miles per charge to create 370 miles of driving on a single charge and a full gas tank. Jeep's off-road capabilities are legendary for Warwick drivers. Jeep's designers have continued the drive to create off-road specialties in every plugin hybrid model.
Both PHEV models, including water-sealed battery packs, have off-road capabilities. Drivers around Cranston will enjoy up to 31.5 inches of water fording capabilities for the 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe. The 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe has a reinforced underside to add to the confidence of Jeep drivers heading off-road.
2023 Jeep 4xe Models are Quiet
Whether you enjoy a ride to school, work, or an outdoor adventure, the legendary brand offers a quiet driving experience. The Jeep brand is known for bringing the outdoors into every vehicle, with the latest 4xe plugin hybrids expanding on this idea. When driving in all-electric mode, both 2023 PHEV models are quiet in all-electric mode to help drivers enjoy the great outdoors as it is meant to be viewed.
