This is probably old news:

Codenamed J70, the most technologically advanced Wrangler of them all is getting BEV and REPB versions. BEV stands for battery electric vehicle, whereas REPB is the pompous way of saying that a combustion engine will be used as a generator. The Range Electric Paradigm Breaker powertrain will debut in the Ram 1500 in the near future, joining the 2025 Ram 1500 REV battery electric truck on the STLA Frame body-on-frame architecture.
The ONLY technological advancements most Jeep fans actually seem to want are those that increase reliability and simplicity. Great to have a hybrid option but keep it simple/reliable like a 2005 Prius. Also read a few times we like those V8s.

You should create a version of this with a green line representing the axis of your rear axle as well to show how different the angles are between both of them.
What do you think? Green line goes through the center of the rear wheels.

Well because you asked: if the green line represents the rear axle, why does it overlap the red and blue lines? Huh? HUH? I knew that photo was fake 😜

Pretty good. And it shows that point I was talking about before how the chassis is going to be right in the sweet spot between the two axle angles when the sway bar is disconnected.

Those two angles should be the same 🤩💪 Though they don't look the same on this rough picture that wasn't taken from the perfect angle. Jeep follows the Laws of the Universe 🤩

They aren't going to be exactly the same. There are some other things at play here. For one, you probably have your rear axle sway bar connected. It's much thinner and doesn't limit flex much, but it does have some role in how things interact. As well as the weight distribution and overall slope or grade of the ground where you are in that picture. But it looks pretty good.
