Yeh-huh. Eighty years after setting the blueprint for the original Willys Jeep, Jeep’s Wrangler compact SUV series is selling like there’s no tomorrow, chalking up three straight quarters of record sales in the US, including the first six months of 2021 118,666 units are included.
Unfortunately, prices are moving up like there was no yesterday. Our test vehicle, a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe, Jeep’s first plug-in hybrid vehicle in the US, arrived last week for what I considered a fairly staggering window-sticker price of $65,890. Maybe I peed a little in the driveway.
