2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs 2024 Ford Bronco

The 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is designed to deliver formidable power and efficiency with sustainability. It features a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor, producing a combined 375 hp and astonishing 470 lbs.-ft. of torque. This combination not only ensures the Wrangler 4xe can tackle the toughest trails, but its low-end torque enables exhilarating takeoff from a standstill and powerful towing capability. In comparison, the 2024 Ford Bronco, while offering a range of powerful engines, does not match the electrified torque delivery of the Wrangler 4xe. Its most powerful torque tops out at 440 lbs.-ft., and without the brisk acceleration the Wrangler 4xe powers out. The Bronco’s conventional gasoline engines lack the immediate power surge provided by the Wrangler 4xe’s electric motor, making the Jeep a superior choice for those seeking both performance and off-road prowess.

One of the standout features of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is its impressive fuel efficiency, thanks to its plug-in hybrid setup. The Wrangler 4xe offers up to 21 miles of all-electric range, making it perfect for short commutes or low-speed off-roading without using a drop of gasoline and with zero emissions. This translates to an EPA-estimated 49 MPGe, significantly better than the fuel economy of any of the Bronco’s all-gas engine options. The 2024 Ford Bronco, while offering decent fuel efficiency for an off-road vehicle, simply cannot compete with the hybrid efficiency of the Wrangler 4xe. For drivers looking to reduce their carbon footprint without sacrificing capability, the Wrangler 4xe is the clear winner.

Building off its reputation as an off-road champion, Jeep has equipped the 2024 Wrangler 4xe with cutting-edge technology that enhances the driving experience and caters to its off-road capability. The Uconnect® 5 NAV system with its largest-in-class 12.3-inch touchscreen offers wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration, as well as several other connectivity options to keep you informed entertained. But geared toward the 4xe’s performance, Jeep has partnered with Trails Offroad, providing connected off-road guides for up to 3,000 destinations. Additionally, with the Jeep app Send-and-Go feature, you can search and send a destination address from home, work, or anywhere directly to the infotainment navigation system for your explorations. While the Bronco offers the SYNC®4 infotainment system with comparable connectivity options, it simply does not have the extensive capabilities that cater specifically to your lifestyle and ease of exploration.

Off-Road Capability Both the Jeep 4xe and the Ford Bronco possess outstanding off-road capabilities, but this is Jeep’s backyard. Every Jeep wears the hard-earned Trail Rated® badge, displaying its unmatched prowess in 5 critical areas: water fording, maneuverability, ground clearance, traction, and articulation. The 4xe is even more adept in these areas and adds its incredible 370-mile range for longer explorations. The Rubicon 4xe brings capability to a level that simply cannot be contended with, boasting an 8,000 lb. WARN® winch, steel bumpers, 33-inch all-terrain tires, front and rear lockers and electronic sway bar disconnect, not to mention the optional 3-piece hardtop with Sky One-Touch® Power Top that Jeep is famous for. While the Ford Bronco has outstanding 4x4 capabilities and the specialized equipment required, it does not excel in these areas enough to have earned the Trail Rated® badge. The Jeep 4xe’s articulation pulls far ahead in this arena, but it’s in stamina that the Jeep truly leaves its competition in the dust. The hybrid powertrain’s 470 lbs.-ft. of instant torque dominates the roughest of terrains, allowing for immediate acceleration to climb hills, crawl over rocks, propel it through rivers, and far more. With its superior articulation and maneuverability, as well as its ability to go further longer, the Jeep 4xe is made for the job of charting the uncharted and conquering every challenge.

While the 2024 Ford Bronco upholds a long lineage of excellent capability, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe clearly surpasses it in sheer power, with the Bronco maxing out at 440 lbs.-ft. of torque and the Wrangler 4xe blowing it away with 470 lbs.-ft. of instant torque for the power to dominate any terrain. Add to that the 4xe’s incredible 49 MPGe and 370-mile range, along with the renowned Trail Rated® badge, and the Ford Bronco just cannot measure up. Additionally, the Jeep 4xe’s electric-only range provides zero emissions and the ability to do your daily driving without wasting a drop of gas. With in-depth technology to support your adventures, from a dash-mounted camera to its trail guides and crystal-clear displays, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe has earned its title of The Most Capable Wrangler Ever. For those looking to embrace the future of off-roading without compromising on capability, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe is the ultimate vehicle.
