Electrified Trail Dominance –
Its hybrid powertrain is central to the Rubicon X 4xe’s prowess, seamlessly blending the turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4 engine with an electric motor. The innovative E-Selec modes empower the driver to tailor the vehicle’s performance to suit various terrains and driving scenarios.
- Hybrid Mode: By harmonizing torque from both the engine and electric motor, this mode prioritizes battery power utilization before seamlessly incorporating the internal combustion engine when necessary.
