Now that the Jeep Wrangler 4xe is in production, it’s time for the folks at FCA to let us all know how much it’ll cost. The electrified Jeep Wrangler is a first of its kind, and features plug-in hybrid technology.
For the Sahara model, buyers can expect to pay $49,490 with destination, and the off-road Rubicon starts at $53,190 with shipping. The 4xe will be eligible for a full $7,500 federal tax credit, if you’re eligible, as well as available state and local incentives where applicable.
The 4xe makes 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. That’s more torque than the EcoDiesel-equipped Wrangler, and matches the torque of the bonkers Wrangler 392.
It features a 17 kWh battery pack and can drive up to 25 miles on electricity alone.
There are two trim levels for 4xe at launch, both called Launch Edition.
The Sahara 4xe Launch Edition features;
- 20-inch wheels
- Leather-trimmed bucket seats
- LED Lighting Group
- Uconnect 4C NAV with 8.4-inch display
- Nine speaker Alpine audio system with subwoofer and a 552-watt, 12-channel amplifier
- 2.72:1 Selec-Trac Full-Time 4WD System
- Dana 44 HD wide axles
The Rubicon 4xe Launch Edition features;
- LED Lighting Group
- Uconnect 4C NAV with 8.4-inch display
- Nine speaker Alpine audio system with subwoofer and a 552-watt, 12-channel amplifier
- 4:1 Rock-Trac Heavy-Duty Full-Time 4WD System
While production is underway, customer delivers are to start in the first quarter of next year. Which, we suppose, could be as early as a week or two.

The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is built alongside the other Wrangler trims, plus the Gladiator pickup, at Jeep’s assembly plant in Toledo, Ohio.
We’d love to tell you what it’s like to drive the Wrangler 4xe, but unfortunately COVD-related restrictions have prevented us from getting behind the wheel. But once we do, we’ll tell you all about it.
