When it comes to ultimate off-road adventures, few vehicles can touch the capability of the Jeep Wrangler 2-Door. That’s why it has been an icon for 80 years. What keeps this vehicle relevant is how it evolves to change with the times, while not straying from its roots. These days, you can get a 2-door Wrangler with a turbo-4, a V6, or a mild-hybrid V6. Whatever engine you choose, you’ll still get the solid axles, soft top, fold-down windshield, and removable doors that this Jeep is known for. Better yet, the Wrangler 2-Door has the lowest projected 5-Year Cost to Own among Off-Road SUVs.
As we explain in our Expert Review, “Today’s Jeep Wrangler is a satisfying mix of classic design and real-deal off-road chops with modern safety systems, amenities, and technology.” That isn’t easy to achieve, and this generation of the Wrangler is the most commuter-friendly to date. Jeep offers heated and leather-covered power seats, 9-speaker Alpine audio with a weather-resistant subwoofer, and navigation. The Uconnect infotainment system easily connects to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Advanced safety features and driver assists, including adaptive cruise control and forward-collision warning, are available. There are also plenty of head-turning special editions, like the Islander and the Willys Sport – and, of course, the mighty Rubicon.
Going Old School
But if you truly want to revisit the most old-school Jeep, you can get the Wrangler 2-Door with a manual transmission, cloth seats, crank windows, and a soft top. Get out on the trail, take off the top and doors, and fold down the windshield. This is a driving experience that’s unlike any other.
The 2021 Jeep Wrangler is capable and civilized, both classic and modern. It continues to offer a lot of value, as the starting price is under $30,000, plus the Wrangler offers strong 5-Year Cost to Own figures.
