0-60 Times 2.0 Mostly Stock.

[OldJupiter]

I have a 2.0 2dr Sting-Gray 2018. I did not think about doing 0-60 runs at stock, and now I kind of regret it. Can anyone post or account for times on a completely stock 2.0 without the 80lb+ bumper I installed. I also installed 3/4 inch front spring spacers to level it out back to stock height.

These runs were done going slightly uphill on an incline in 99 degree weather in the NYC area - stock AT street tires at 41 PSI all around. Quarter tank of gas and a front passenger. As mention the bumper and a fairlead - no winch.

Would love to know what a 2 door can do with the euro bumpers.

Pretty quick for a Wrangler.

From Car and Driver magazine...(I know yours is 2 door, hut this is all I found.

With the four-cylinder hybrid powertrain, the four-door Sahara was slightly quicker at 6.5 seconds to 60 mph.

Just a fun fact, the base 1975 Corvette took 7.7 seconds to hit 60 mph.

Each Run was going slight uphill

You can see my elevation change as I could only run the pulls at the bottom of each peak - safety/visibility and whatnot. I will try a few more pulls on flat ground given the opportunity is there.

Thank you for your questions and responses!

Its a 2.0, so expect the 0-60 times to be substantially less than a 3.6L. Those 2 extra cylinders weigh a lot and slow those Jeeps down.

I think the 2.0 with batteries is heavier?

Yah, but the weight is mounted lower in the chassis so it negates the weight difference.

Ok sure... I'm assuming your not serious.

On a side note I've never driven the 2.0 but would love the chance. I have no idea how it performs comparatively.

These Jeeps have decent pickup for sure.

acceleration times posted by the major magazines meaured the 2.0 BSG and 3.6 with near identical 0-60 and 1/4 times. The difference was in passing times, where the 3.6 was actually faster because of no turbo lag like the 2.0

The 2.0 BSG weighs about 100 lbs more than the 3.6, so no those 2 extra cylinders don’t weigh a lot

How fast was a 77 Jeep?
