The 2022 Jeep Wrangler comes in 11 trim levels, each at a different price point and with varying features. The trims are: Sport, Willys Sport, Sport S, Willys, Sport Altitude, Sahara, Rubicon, Sahara Altitude, High Tide, High Altitude, and Rubicon 392. The Sport, Sport S, Willys, and Rubicon come in two-door and four-door configurations, while all other trims have four doors.

Engine and Power

The latest Wrangler comes standard with a 3.6-liter V-6 engine like its predecessors. It delivers 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, gets 17 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway, and comes with a six-speed transmission. An eight-speed alternative is also available. If you’d rather equip your Jeep with an eco-friendly engine that could save you money, you can opt for the 3.6-liter mild hybrid engine, which delivers the same strength as the traditional V-6 engine but raises the fuel efficiency to 19 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.

For additional power, you could employ an available 3.0-liter diesel V-6, supplying 260 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque. Muscular but efficient, the diesel engine reaches 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. A 2.0-liter turbocharged engine is also optional, which offers 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque and gets 21 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. The Wrangler is famous for its lightweight athleticism, but it can still haul modest loads. Each engine has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.

Exterior

You can expect the same iconic exterior on the 2022 Jeep Wrangler. Its perky, dynamic body comes with a removable top and doors so you can enjoy open-air cruising that made this off-road vehicle famous. Standard exterior features on the Wrangler’s base trim include halogen headlights and a body-colored grille. Upgrade to the Willys Sport trim, and a black grille replaces the body-colored grille. Top trims add details like a sunroof and LED lights.

Here are the available exterior colors for the 2022 Jeep Wrangler:

• Hydro Blue Pearl.
• Bright White.
• Sarge Green.
• Silver Synith.
• Snazzberry Pearl.
• Sting-Gray.
• Granite Crystal Metallic.
• High Velocity.
• Firecracker Red.
• Black.
• Gobi.

Interior Features

Jeep built the Wrangler for adventure, and the latest edition has plenty of comfortable features to keep you cozy in the cabin, even on rocky terrain. The carpet is resistant to weather, and you can easily drain the interior, so it’s a simple to clean your Wrangler after trips in the snow, rain, or mud. If you’re planning on trekking into colder climates, consider upgrading to the optional heated seats and mirrors. You can choose between black and tan interior in most trim levels, and a clever climate control system allows you to adjust for the temperature.

Storage and Seating

There’s plenty of room inside the cabin, and you can adjust your setup to make space for passengers, luggage, or equipment. On most trims, the 2022 Wrangler seats five people, with an overall passenger volume of 104 cubic feet. There’s space for sports gear and luggage, too, with an additional 72.4 cubic feet of cargo room. Rubicon 392 models still seat five, but they offer 103 cubic feet for passengers and 67.4 cubic feet for cargo. The Wrangler also comes with adaptable seating that folds down so you can maximize your storage space.

Entertainment

The Wrangler’s infotainment setup is easily customizable based on your personal preferences. Eight speakers come standard on the base trim so you can add a soundtrack to your road trips. For extra intensity, you can upgrade to nine speakers. Touch screens are available in 7-inch and 8.4-inch iterations so you can control your music, communication tools, and navigation with ease. Connectivity tools like Apple CarPlay and Andriod Auto are available, too. Top trims add satellite radio capability and technology that allow you to control your entertainment system using voice commands.

Safety

On the 2022 Wrangler’s base trim, front and side airbags for the driver and the passenger come standard as well as anti-lock brakes and brake assistance to ensure you can stop in the event of a hazard. Manual child safety locks are also standard on all Jeep Wranglers to help protect smaller passengers. As you move up the trims, you get additional features for peace of mind, like a security system and panic alarm. The Rubicon 392 adds technology to help you avoid forward collisions, blind spot warnings, and rear parking sensors.

A host of other high-tech safety features are available for most Jeep Wrangler models. If you want additional assistance, increased visibility, and smart notifications of potential dangers, consider upgrading to add features. Here are some of the available safety and security features:

• Rear cross-path detection.
• Blind spot monitoring.
• Parking assist.
• Rearview camera.

The fun-loving SUV has additional technology to keep you safe on your adventures. You can opt for an SOS button near the rearview mirror, which allows you to request emergency services if you need help. Jeep designed the frame of the vehicle to withstand impacts to keep you safe in an accident. Plus, the windshield uses special glass to deflect debris, so you always have a clear view of the path ahead, even when you’re racing through rain, snow, dirt, or sand.
