Why it stands out

The 2019 Jeep Wrangler stands out because it keeps the Wrangler’s classic identity while adding meaningful modern upgrades. The fourth-generation Wrangler is described as looking remarkably similar to its predecessors, but it is longer and wider for better accessibility, and it brings easier-to-fold windshield and easier-to-remove doors, an optional Sky One-Touch Power Top, zipperless soft tops, blind-spot monitoring, improved off-road capability, and better on-road performance. That combination makes it appealing to buyers who want the Wrangler’s traditional rugged character without giving up some everyday usability.

Mechanically, the 2019 model retains the standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and adds a 270-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder engine that is available with all trims. A six-speed manual transmission is standard with the V6, while an eight-speed automatic is optional with the V6 and standard with the four-cylinder engine. Inside, it stays retro in appearance but is thoroughly modern, with push-button start as standard and an available digital gauge cluster, plus Uconnect infotainment in five, seven, or 8.4-inch displays. Safety and convenience also improve with standard side-impact airbags, available driver-assist features, and a lower beltline for better visibility.

There are still tradeoffs, though. The Wrangler JL is noted for the propensity to overturn during the small front overlap crash test and receives a marginal score for that metric. The broader Wrangler lineup is also associated with poor ride quality on tarmac, excessive wind noise at highway speeds, and less cargo volume than other SUVs, and owners of the 2019 model echo concerns about interior space and fuel economy. Even so, for buyers prioritizing off-road ability, open-air versatility, and a distinctive design, the 2019 Jeep Wrangler remains one of the most recognizable choices in the segment.
