The current Jeep Wrangler hit the market for the first time in 2007 and is the heir to a saga of models that goes back no less than 75 years in time, as we remember that the brand recently celebrated its 75th anniversary. It has little or nothing to do with the SUVs that now dominate our roads, as we know the Jeep Wrangler led headlights are one of the most important off road accessories, it is a car designed by and to circulate in the countryside, although that does not prevent it from defending itself relatively well on the road or on highways, as long as we take into account its own limitations. of its suspension and chassis scheme.
And it is that the Wrangler, like the G-Class, is a so-called authentic off-road vehicle, since its bodywork is based on a robust chassis made up of two side members and cross members, under which we find rigid axles. The package would not be complete without the mandatory reducer, essential to be able to overcome the roughest terrain or to be able to pull the heaviest loads, and without the 100% lockable differentials, which are also available on this car depending on the chosen finish.
Unlike its rival in this comparison, the Wrangler is available with two different bodies and also, both have the particularity that it is possible to remove the roof to turn it into a convertible off-road vehicle. Until a few years ago the Mercedes was also offered in a long and short wheelbase version, as well as as a convertible, but currently the brand only sells the five-door variant. It is offered with two engines, a 2.8 CRD diesel with 200 hp and a 3.6 V6 gasoline with 284 hp. Both are only available with an automatic transmission. By the way, like the star model, the American is expected to be updated soon with the introduction of the 2018 Jeep Wrangler.
