The 3.6 V6 is the only engine available with the manual transmission.I'm wondering why it's being suggested that the V6 compels a $1,500.00 premium, vis-a-vis choosing it over the I4. Jeep's Build & Price page proves this isn't automatically so.
The 3.6L engine choice has no separate upcharge when coupling it with the manual transmission, and bypassing eTorque. The 2.0L requires the 850RE automatic, though, which does increase the bill by $1,500.00.
A $1,500.00 price bump will be incurred by the V6 buyer only if he voluntarily configures his JL build in a certain manner (and perhaps he should disclose his build config. in those posts that claim a $1.5K engine selection cost.) Yes?
For the automatic transmission, the 2.0 I4 is the base engine with a $1,500 upcharge. To get the 3.6 V6 with automatic is another $1,500.
So it looks like this for 2021:
3.6/manual is standard
2.0/automatic costs $1,500
3.6/automatic costs $3,000
