Best I got out of the battery is 19.5 miles, and that was 70% highway. I haven’t don’t only surface street driving to find out. And I honestly don’t know for hybrid mpg. I filled up for the first time and this tank of gas will be my test.
You will get far less EV range on the highway than city driving...especially given the Jeep’s aerodynamic ms. The EV mode energy usage on your 4xe is 3 times the usage rate of my Model 3 Tesla. I bet it actually does good in EV mode while off-roading.

As fas as I can tell. Mine is the most modified right now and the only one on 37” tires. Since owning, I inatalled rubicon steel bumpers with a stinger and led’s, American adventure labs fender chop lights, teraflex st1 lift kit, motegi trailite 17x8.5” rims and bfg k02 37x12.5. So far it rises great and I couldn’t be happier. It’s not done, but this is a good starting point.
Talk to us quickly on fuel/range. With all the mods, what EV range are you getting, and what MPGs do you get in hybrid mode. I’m tempted to go 4Xe route as my commute is long (currently on the diesel train), but concerned that once modded, I’ll get poor EV range and back to high teens for mpgs with the 2.0t. Thanks.

2021 Rubicon 4xe, 2018 Sport
New member here, have owned jeeps for a few years now, first with a 2007 which was traded in for a 2018 JL. Still have that and just picked this one up a few days ago.

Really liking the hybrid. It didn't come with the proximity unlock, but did have all the other features so I ordered the upgrade kit, hopefully it won't be too long. Would love to get some new rims in the matching blue, looking around for that.

Couple of posts ago talking about highway driving, I put the car in eSave mode when getting on the highway and back in Hybrid after, at least for now.

Can't wait to get this out on the trails and on the beach :)

I get 19.5mpg and 46mpge on 35" tires. Don't forget the Rubicon has 4:10 gears. I did the alignment myself after installing the lift. Steering and control is better than stock believe it or not.

If your commute is long, I'd go with the diesel.

It was better after the lift on my last one also. I can't wait to get lifted again.

the ev range is 18-20 miles. Don’t have any mpg estimates yet since 60-75% of my driving is done on electricity and I am on my first full tank of gas.
