I prefer the Jeep JL interior vs the Bronco's even in base form Jeep looks alot better than the Bronco.

I totally agree. There is a huge EV revolution under way…Jeep will need to adapt, especially if dems stay in power. Based on how much power is needed for off-roading based on what we’re seeing with the 4xe, I don’t know how an all electric Jeep can be very feasible for extended off-roading…Most of you worry about what gizmo will be added to the next gen, when I really worry that the next gen will be battery only. The tree huggers of the world are going to make sure we have 6 figure golf carts.

Mostly agree except for the grill lights, but how about gearing options. No choice, got 373’s when I wanted 4.10’s . Some people who do a lot of hwy driving might want higher gearing.sometime around 2027-29 depending on sales as my predecessors wrote
Refering to the last paragraph of my post, I don't see myself being in the market of a next generation JM Wrangler. I like things simple and reliable, mechanic, not electronic, for traveling internationally and the JL is already VERY much borderline on that regard. I just don't see how the next generation is going to stop that trend.
That being said:
1. Hope they put the friggin' inside mirror back up to the top of the windshield. I'm 6'3" and it feels like the thing is sitting in the middle of the windshield. The vision out of the JK felt much more open.
2. Since we already got halos in the headlights, why not decently light up the seven slots in-between as well? Could look dope. Don't see how the JL could be improved on the outside otherwise. Loved the JKU, the JLU(R) however came full circle for me design wise.
3. A one-piece hardtop (or any top) option that doesn't leak.
4. Seriously rethink the USB outlet and Cig-plug number and locations that are just not practical in the JL. I routed a complete Cigplug /USB bank from the ACC cable-tree into the glovebox...
5. Please god make them put the dang rollbar back outside and into the rear edges of the top as far as safely possible. The current JL setup is an overlanders nightmare, even worse than in the JK, further reducing cabinet-/drawer-space that already came at a premium in any Wrangler.
6. Thx for the 4 optional accessory-switches. I guess I speak for most of us when I say: Can we have 6-8 of them please?
7. The folding front seats of the 2 door in the 4 door for added living space when camping for us Ursa Minor snobs.
8. Option the same factory rims in both 17x7.5" and 8.5 widths. I just haven't found any street legal aftermarket ones for 35's that I like anywhere near as much as the stock ones. They just belong on there for me.
9. A tailgate setup strong enough to hold 35's, a trail trashbag an 2 sets of traction boards from the factory would be VERY gucci.
10. Refering to 9: It was nice to get a backup camera (especially with the completely useless zoom mirror on the driver side), it would however make more sense for me it were located up on the 3rd breaklight or ANYWHERE but in the middle of the tire...
11. Speaking of Mirrors: go bronco-style and mount them on the body, not the removable doors
Other than that: I really fear the JL will be the last generation of the Wrangler with a good old naturally aspirated V6/V8 without E-Torque and other beancounter BS that no Jeeper ever wanted or needed to go wheeling/overlanding to begin with.
How is that simpler than getting what I want from the factory.Stop worrying about a warranty. It's a pretty simple answer.
Actually a Wrangler EV with 4 independent electric motors would be the ultimate off-road Wrangler.Based on how much power is needed for off-roading based on what we’re seeing with the 4xe, I don’t know how an all electric Jeep can be very feasible for extended off-roading…
