2019 Jeep® Wrangler Fact Sheet
September 1, 2018 , Auburn Hills, Mich.
The iconic Jeep® Wrangler – the most capable and recognized vehicle in the world – delivers unmatched off-road capability and is produced with more than seven decades of 4x4 engineering experience. Powertrain options include a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 and an all-new 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine. Wrangler continues to offer a body-on-frame design, front and rear five-link suspension system, solid axles, electronic lockers and is one of the few midsize SUVs that offer a six-speed manual transmission in addition to its available eight-speed automatic.

New for 2019:

• Wrangler’s Advanced Safety Group package now includes adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning
• Bikini exterior paint color joins the Wrangler lineup

Highlights:

• Jeep Wrangler’s 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine delivers 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque and is engineered to provide a broad torque band
• Available 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine with eTorque technology delivers 270 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. of torque
• Available on Sahara and Rubicon four-door models, Sky One-Touch powertop allows occupants to open or close the Wrangler’s roof with a push of a button. The Sky One-Touch powertop can be used at speeds up to 60 miles per hour (mph)
• Best-in-class approach angle of 44 degrees, breakover angle of 27.8 degrees, departure angle of 37 degrees and a ground clearance of 10.9 inches help the Jeep Wrangler scale the toughest terrain
• Wrangler models feature lightweight, high-strength aluminum doors, hinges, hood, fenders and windshield frame, as well as a magnesium swing gate, to help reduce weight and boost fuel economy
• The capable driveline of the Sport and Sahara models include the Command-Trac NV241 part-time, two-speed transfer case that features a 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio and next-generation Dana front and rear axles. In addition, an optional Trac-Lok limited-slip rear differential provides extra torque and grip in low-traction environments, such as sand, mud or snow

• Wrangler Sahara models offer a Selec-Trac two-speed transfer case with full-time four-wheel drive and a 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio. This full-time two-speed transfer case is intuitive and allows the driver to set it and forget it, while constantly sending power to the front and rear wheels

Does anyone know the particulars of how FCA will implement adaptive cruise control in the 2019 JLs?

To my point, such technology requires the rig to know how far in front of it is another vehicle, which presumes some radar transmission point emanating from the grill/windshield?

If the windshield, (I seem to recall some spy photos, before the JL was revealed, of what appeared to be radar devices on the windshield) the feature might make for some interesting proximity warnings (not that I suggest that without at least helmets (and applicable law) for the front seat passengers that the windshield be down at highway speeds) as the radar bounces off the hood the folded down windshield sits upon.

I also wonder if the feature can be installed on the 2018s?

The sensors are on the back of the mirror, which stays when the windshield is folded.
