Overview
The Jeep Wrangler (JL) is the fourth generation of the Wrangler off-road vehicle, available in two- and four-door body styles. Unveiled at the 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 29, 2017, production of the vehicle began in November 2017.
Design
The 2-door Wrangler and 4-door Wrangler Unlimited feature an exterior design that is reminiscent of the 1997 through 2006 Wrangler (TJ), with a "raked" front grille with seven vertical slots and round headlamps that integrate into the front grille. The designers have moved the traditional Jeep logo off the grille.
Powertrain
The 3.6 L Pentastar VVT V6 gasoline engine remains available from the existing Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited, and is standard on all models, though it has been redesigned for improved fuel economy. The engine features an Aisin AL6 six-speed manual transmission as standard equipment, with an 850RE Torqueflite eight-speed automatic transmission being optional. The automatic transmission made its debut in the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WK2), replacing the older Torqueflite 845RE unit. The eight-speed automatic unit will feature a traditional shifter.
Interior
The power window controls remain in the center of the instrument panel, and the front woofers remain in the lower corners of the instrument panel. There is a new three-spoke, retro-inspired steering wheel, and a color instrument cluster display screen is available on upper-level trims.
Safety
Safety improvements include standard side-impact airbags and strengthened B-pillars. Driver-assist safety features are located in the Active Safety group.

Who it suits
- Buyers who want ground clearance, a high seating position and load space: the typical strengths of the SUV body.
- Drivers buying for enjoyment rather than space: coupes and roadsters trade rear space for style and handling.
Check before you buy
- Ask for a battery state-of-health report: the traction battery is the main value driver in a used hybrid or electric car. Battery SOH tool
- Confirm the charging inlet and the speeds your market supports; plug types differ between regions.
- Check the emissions equipment (particulate filter, NOx treatment) and the destination country's emissions rules; some markets restrict used diesels.
- Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
- Read the auction sheet grade and notes, and verify the odometer against service and inspection records. How to read an auction sheet
