New powertrains for the all-new Jeep Wrangler
The Wrangler engine range is enhanced with the introduction of two new engines - the 2.2-litre MultiJet II turbo diesel and the 2.0-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder petrol engine. Both join the 3.6-litre V-6 Pentastar engine upgraded for the new Wrangler and already available in its engine offer. All Wrangler engine options are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, an absolute new for this model.
New 2.2-litre MultiJet II turbo diesel engine: featuring second-generation MultiJet technology, the new, efficient 2.2-litre diesel engine features four valves per cylinder, a belt-driven Double Over Head Camshafts (DOHC), 2,000-bar Common Rail injection system, solenoid injectors and a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT). Mated to a new eight-speed automatic transmission, the 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine delivers 200 horsepower at 3,500 rpm and a torque of 450 Nm at 2,000 rpm.
The 2.2-litre engine also features fuel-saving Stop-Start (ESS) technology. Main characteristics of the 2.2-litre engine are:
The engine emissions are managed with a new multiway EGR system, with LP EGR and HP EGR, both cooled. In addition the air is cooled with a Water Cooled Air Cooler that helps to reduce emission improving the engine responsiveness. The aftertreatment has a underfloor SCR system that reduces NOx to negligible values and a DOC and DPF close coupled to the engine for the particulate Matter reduction. Both these aftertreatment systems makes the vehicle compliant to the new RDE Euro 6/D standards.
New 2.0-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine: the new 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine delivers 272 horsepower @ 5,250 rpm and 400 Nm of torque @ 3,000 rpm and features engine Stop-Start (ESS). Mated to the new eight-speed automatic gearbox, this engine is part of the Global Medium Engine architecture family and features Double Over Head Camshafts (DOHC), dual independent camshaft timing and a cooled exhaust gas recirculation (C-EGR) system. This is the first time that the combined use of a Twin Scroll turbocharger, C-EGR system, central direct injection and the independent liquid cooling intake of air, throttle body and turbo have been employed together. This combination of technologies affords superior levels of performance while at the same time reducing fuel consumption. The new 2.0-litre will be available across Europe in the fourth quarter of 2018.
3.6-litre Pentastar V-6 engine (Only for the Middle East and Africa): already available in the Wrangler engine range, the 3.6-litre delivers 284 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm and 347 Nm of torque @ 4,100 rpm, and now features Stop-Start (ESS) as standard equipment. It was engineered to provide a broad torque band with a focus on low-end torque - an essential trait a vehicle with extreme off-road performance levels such as the Wrangler. The 3.6-litre petrol engine will be available only in specific markets outside Europe, such as the Middle East.
New eight-speed automatic transmission: all Jeep Wrangler engine options are mated to the new eight-speed automatic transmission enabling the vehicle to optimize engine output while on the trails or enjoying smooth, efficient power delivery at highway speeds. Uniquely suited to the requirements of the all-new Wrangler, the new automatic gearbox delivers unmatched off-road capabilities.
- Undisputed off-road champion, the all-new Jeep® Wrangler, is the most capable ever, delivering the highest levels of comfort and handling for everyday use.
- Offering two four-wheel drive, active, on-demand full time systems - Command-Trac and Rock-Trac, next-generation Dana axles, Tru-Lock electric front- and rear-axle lockers, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and an electronic front sway-bar disconnect.
- A modern design that retains all the authentic styling cues of the iconic Wrangler with several new top combinations that ensure more open-air freedom.
- In Europe, the offering includes two all-new engines - a 2.2-litre MultiJet II turbo diesel and a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine. Both are joining the 3.6-litre V-6 Pentastar available only in - markets outside Europe, including the Middle East. All Wrangler engine options come with the new eight-speed automatic transmission and feature Stop-Start (ESS) technology.
- Advanced technological contents include new LED headlamps and tail lamps, new UconnectTMsystem with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and the choice of 5.0, 7.0- or 8.4-inch touchscreens with pinch-and-zoom capability.
- An array of safety and security systems, including Blind-spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path detection, ParkView rear backup camera with dynamic grid lines, electronic stability control (ESC) with electronic roll mitigation and four standard air bags.
- Available in Jeep showrooms across Europe from September in Sport, Sahara and Rubicon trim levels with 2- or 4-door configuration. Sahara models can be equipped with the exclusive Overland pack.
- More than 180 exclusive Mopar® accessories increase all-new Jeep Wrangler customization possibilities and complement the individual lifestyles of its owners.
