I drove the 4xe last week and while it's great with a charge (wife loved the coolness factor of the tech) as soon as the battery runs out (27 miles) you're now hauling a 5300lb rig with a 2liter engine. The decent mpgs and zippy feeling are long gone when the battery runs out. I averaged 20mpgs in hybrid so I can only imagine gas engine only. I would much rather have the non electrified rubicon 2.0 than the 4xe in reality. While it's charged though it is cool.As much as I want my Bronco all of these extra delays are getting annoying. I had the pleasure of being able to drive one at the Bronco off-roadeo and absolutely loved it. The problem is the more I see the Jeep 4xe reviews make me want that over the Bronco at times. Getting 25 electric charge which is all I drive daily anyways is perfect.
The longer Ford waits the more obsolete it will become to Jeep as Jeep continues to improve with now new competition. I know a lot of people here donāt want to hear that but itās the truth. Heck they donāt even have a PHEV model yet and thatās one of Jeepās best seller at this time.
