Generally, you can expect:
* Lower MPG: Expect lower MPG figures in the 17-22 mpg range (combined city/highway) for models with larger engines or those frequently driven off-road. Four-wheel drive versions will typically get slightly lower fuel economy than two-wheel drive versions.
* Higher MPG (relatively): More recent models with smaller, more fuel-efficient engines (like the 4-cylinder options available in some years) might achieve MPG closer to the mid-20s (combined), but this is still relatively low compared to many other SUVs. The hybrid option also improves MPG but is not offered in every generation.
To get a precise MPG estimate for a specific Jeep Wrangler, you should:
* Check the EPA's FuelEconomy.gov website: This is the most reliable source for official fuel economy estimates. You'll need to specify the year, make, model, and engine type of the Wrangler.
* Consult the owner's manual: The owner's manual for a specific Wrangler will list the expected fuel economy.
* Look at online reviews: Websites and publications that review cars often include fuel economy information in their reports.
In short, don't expect high MPG from a Jeep Wrangler; it's known more for its off-road capability than fuel efficiency.
