What does Wrangler 4xe mean?

Wrangler 4xe is a newly launched model of the Wrangler. Relevant explanations are as follows: Introduction: The Wrangler 4xe is based on the current Wrangler JL, equipped with a 2.0T+8AT engine, and still retains classic elements such as a body-on-frame structure, low-range four-wheel drive, and front/rear solid axle suspensions. It is divided into three configurations: 4xe, Sahara-4xe, and Rubicon-4xe, with slight differences in details such as axle housing models, the number of differential locks, and low-range torque multiplication ratios. Additional Notes: The Wrangler 4xe extensively uses teal blue accents around the body, with the 'RUBICON' lettering outlined in a 4xe-exclusive color. The Trail-Rated off-road badge below also adopts the same color scheme, and even the factory-equipped tow hooks are changed from red to teal blue.
The Wrangler 4xe is a model of the Jeep Wrangler, where '4xe' stands for plug-in hybrid, simply put, it combines four-wheel drive with an electric propulsion system. It integrates a traditional gasoline engine with an electric motor, allowing for short-distance electric driving, such as commuting with nearly zero emissions. Charging is convenient, achievable through a standard home outlet or fast-charging stations, with a full charge enabling a range of 20 to 30 kilometers, making it ideal for urban commuting. In off-road conditions, the additional torque provided by the electric system makes climbing and water fording easier, while significantly reducing fuel consumption to an average of about 10 liters per 100 kilometers, much more economical than the pure gasoline version. I'm particularly interested in this vehicle because it retains the Wrangler's robust off-road heritage while being environmentally friendly and efficient, offering a smooth and quiet ride unlike the noisy experience of conventional SUVs.
