Jeep Wrangler 4xe drag racing 392 charger

I take the Jeep Wrangler 4xe out to the drag strip and we hurt some feelings. I raced again a, chevy Silverado built 6.0, 392 dodge charger, LT1 Camaro, I was able to run an 8.8 1/8th mile. Everyone was shock how fast it was off the line.

The Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited 4xe is the greenest, most efficient, and capable Wrangler yet. Thanks to a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain that combines a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine with two electric motors, a high-voltage battery pack, and a unique TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission, the 4xe can deliver up to 25 miles of propulsion on pure electric power alone with a gasoline motor helping for those extended trips. With a combined output of 375 horsepower (280 kW) and 470 lb.-ft. (637 N•m) of torque from its gasoline and electric motors, it makes the 4xe the second-most-powerful Wrangler ever behind the new HEMI-powered Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 392. While Jeep loves talking about the fact that the 4xe’s electric motors instantly provide torque allowing for added capability in tough situations on the trail, we wonder how does that comes into play in other situations… say like the drag strip. YouTuber Brandon Haneline, recently, took his 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara High Altitude 4xe to the local drag strip to find out if the added electric boost would turn the new “green” Jeep into a drag strip sleeper. The first thing is did was to cut the interior of his Sahara 4xe, leaving only the center console, door panels, instrument panel, and driver’s seat helping to cut down on the added weight by the electrified powertrain on the already lefty 5,100 lb. SUV. Even though, he cut as much weight as he could down, the PHEV powertrain was left untouched. Brandon admits it was his first time on a drag strip before, but could the plug-in Wrangler hang with vehicles like a HEMI-powered Dodge Charger Daytona in 1/8-mile? In the end, the Wrangler 4xe was capable of laying down runs around 8.85 to 8.88 seconds @ around 78 mph. That would mean it would be in the high 13-second range if it was raced down the quarter-mile. Not too bad considering how heavy the Wrangler 4xe is, and that Car & Driver has tested a standard Wrangler Unlimited with the 2.0-liter turbo on the 1/4-mile with a 15.1-second pass @ 88 mph.

I want to see tue rubicon 392 vs the EXE

[fritzhopper]

That's awesome speed, especially for a cube with 4 wheels👍If the phevs and evs can be easiered accessed and modified in the future, that'll be so amazing.

The 392 finally found something it can outrun. 😆

Imagine that was a 1/4 mile. Jeep would be 3 cars back. After the 60 foot the drop kept getting bigger

[kdevelopment]

What mode was the Jeep in? Electric or Hybrid or E-Save?

[HDwinked]

Nice! Do you have, or know of any engine upgrades available for this vehicle yet?

[liveyourlife]

Imagine not having to build torque?😲😲 Imagine having ALL of it the second you push the accelerator? 👌👍👊🤘💯🔥

[Infamous_wu]

How are these internet scats so slow? I’m seeing 7s irl and I’m doing 7s myself

[steveleamont]

Try tuning the diesel Jeep and see how it would do.

I have a Grand Cherokee 4xe...it's no slouch. It's actually surprising how it passes. It gets right after it. My other car is a SHO...and the Cherokee is close in acceleration.

Are you running it with the traction control off and in 4wd auto? According to the manual that is what they use to get that 6 second time. I noticed mine gets more zip with traction control off.

[nakotahunt]

Let me know when you bringing it back to the track

[jaredourada]

If it was supposed to be fast, it wouldn't be shaped like a brick. 🤣

[Raq]

Not that bad for a mobile rubix cube 😭

[joshuacripe]

Imagine when they can tune the 2.0t

And change the parameters of the electric motor like the Tesla .

These will be rocket ships with cavemen driving them lol

Put your windshield down and don’t open your mouth I think you could see that 392 in your rear view mirror
