Environmental Impact of Jeep® Wrangler Reduced By 15 Percent

FCA continues to be the leader in going green. The newest Global Warming Potential (GWP) analysis proves just how far the automaker will go. In fact, the latest-generation Jeep® Wrangler models have been shown to lower its GWP by 15 percent. One thing is for sure; drivers are taking notice near Slidell, LA.

Embracing Green with the Wrangler

As we look at the newest Wrangler models, which include the 2020 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited, we see the changes that have been made. Previously, Wrangler SUVs came with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. The new models have a 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 instead. This engine pumps out 270 horsepower. It also features engine stop-start. When this system is in place, GHG emissions are reduced by 14-metric tons. That offers something to feel good about during a drive near Franklinton, LA.

Additionally, the new Wrangler Unlimited lineup comes with updated materials. Overall, the ferrous metal content has been reduced from 68 percent, down to 54 percent. Furthermore, non-ferrous metal content has risen from 12 percent to twenty percent. When all of this is factored together, the saved emissions on Wrangler Unlimited SUVs equipped with the 2.0-liter engine equal the same carbon sequestration found with 16.5 acres of America’s forests each year.

These reasons should offer enough incentive to drive a new Wrangler Unlimited near Picayune, LA. But, if they don’t, we have further reasons.
