Regenerative braking

[Scouture27]

I recently purchased a 2021 2dr Wrangler Islander with a 4cylinder turbo engine. I noticed that it rapidly slows down once my foot is off the accelerator. Do all new Jeeps have regenerative braking, or is that just the 4xe? Overall, this drive COMPLETELY differently compared to my 2013 sport.

There is no regenerative braking in gas or diesel powered Wranglers.

Not true.

The eTorque version of the 2.0 and 3.6 does or should have regenerative braking.

How Does Jeep Wrangler's eTorque Mild Hybrid Technology Work?
A 48-volt battery pack works with the motor generator to create:

• a seamless start/stop function;
• a short-duration torque addition to the engine crankshaft in particular driving conditions; and,
• brake energy regeneration to increase efficiency and responsiveness.
