The 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe and Kia Niro PHEV are both plug-in hybrid SUVs. Such vehicles offer more efficient operation than their all-gas peers, but they sometimes require you to sacrifice power. Is that the case with these two autos? Jeep Wrangler 4xe
Engine Type: 2.0L Turbo PHEV
Battery Size: 400-volt 17-kWh Li-ion
Horsepower: 375
Torque: 470 lb-ft
Drive Type: AWD
Â
Kira Niro PHEV
Engine Type: 1.6L GDI PHEV
Battery Size: 240-volt 1.56 kWh Li-ion
Horsepower: 139
Torque: 195 lb-ft
Drive Type: FWD
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is far superior in this comparison because it combines a turbocharged engine and a powerful battery pack. The SUV also offers an eight-speed automatic transmission with a Selec-Trac full-time AWD system and a regenerative brake booster. This muscle and these features provide extra utility, including a 1,588-kg towing capacity.Â
As a result, you can take full advantage of the 595 km driving range, or use the whisper-quiet 34 km all-electric travelling capacity to explore nature while leaving it totally undisturbed. Either way, the battery can be recharged via a 120V or 240V power outlet or the engine itself.
