Engine & Performance

Features Jeep’s established 3.6 L Pentastar V6, with an estimated 285 hp and 260 lb‑ft torque.
Delivers solid mid‑range grunt and off‑road output, but it's not a powerhouse compared to newer turbo engines.
Built for rough terrain with Jeep’s 4×4 system, though fuel economy remains modest—around 17–20 mpg combined.

Top-tier trims, equipped with extra off-road gear (like lockers, skid plates, lifted suspension), land between $45,000 to $55,000.
The base model starts around $38,000–$42,000, depending on options like removable tops or upgraded infotainment systems.

Subtle quality concerns: The video flags reports of issues such as squeaky suspension components, dash-rattle noise, and uneven panel gaps—especially in early production models.
Warranty tips: Advises buyers to purchase extended coverage ASAP, as components like the transfer case and electrical parts can be pricey out-of-pocket.
Resale caution: Since hard-to-detect issues might scare future buyers, the video suggests holding off or negotiating deeper discounts if buying new.

Performance and off-road capability remain Jeep-strong—it’s still a beast on the trail.
However, if you're sensitive to interior fit-and-finish or want guaranteed peace of mind, either look for a well-documented used example or budget for extra warranty/inspections.
