Battle of the Off-Road SUVs: Compare the New Jeep Wrangler to the Competition

As a new Jeep Brand SUV dealer serving shoppers from our home here in Staten Island to the concrete jungle of NYC and even folks from Newark, we know that there's any number of different reasons that folks choose to come and shop with us, but none are so compelling as the new Jeep Wrangler.

As the flagship model for the Jeep Brand portfolio, the new 2022 Jeep Wrangler is the picture of rugged capability. From its boldly pronounced fender flares to its iconic seven-shot front grille, there's just nothing quite like driving a new Jeep Wrangler, whether you're cruising around the city or winding your way around the unpaved backroads and trails of New Jersey.

However, while we'd like to argue that there's nothing out there that quite compares to the freedom and exhilaration of driving a new Jeep Wrangler, the fact of the matter is that there's a fair deal of competition for this SUV's market space these days. So, in the interest of showing you firsthand why the Jeep Wrangler is such a great bet, read on to see how it fares against its closest segment rivals for sale near Brooklyn and Woodbridge, NJ these days.

The 2022 Jeep Wrangler vs. the 2022 Ford Bronco

Both the new Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco boast stellar off-roading capabilities with standard 4x4 and ample ground clearance for uneven terrain, but when it comes to driving in busy cities like Jersey City or Newark, the new Jeep Wrangler has a definite edge. Not only is the Ford Bronco considerably longer from end-to-end than the new Jeep Wrangler, making it harder to park in cramped garages and streetside parking spaces, but it lacks a hybrid powertrain option. By comparison, the new Jeep Wrangler 4xe delivers stellar fuel economy, totaling up to 49 MPGe when properly equipped.

The 2022 Jeep Wrangler vs. the 2022 Ford Bronco Sport

With a name like the Ford Bronco Sport, you'd expect a lot sportier performance. However, when pitted against the new Jeep Wrangler, the new Ford Bronco Sport falls short on off-road performance and overall power. In fact, when you opt for the base Ford Bronco Sport, you'll have to make do with just 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque from its anemic turbocharged 1.5-liter engine.

Now, you could always opt for the available turbocharged 2.0-liter engine for the Ford Bronco Sport, but that will only get you up to 250 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque, which pales in comparison to the 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque that you'll get from the standard 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine that the new Jeep Wrangler comes equipped with.

The 2022 Jeep Wrangler vs. the 2022 Toyota 4Runner

One of the best things about buying or leasing a new 2022 Jeep Wrangler is the freedom you get to enjoy open air driving in the spring, summer, and early fall in the greater Brooklyn and Staten Island areas. With a removable roof and removable doors, you can cruise in the sunshine with the new Jeep Wrangler. Unfortunately, owners of the new Toyota 4Runner can't enjoy such driving experiences with the fixed roof and doors of that particular model.
