That’s why we put together this 2020 Jeep Wrangler review.The 2020 Wrangler brings so many fun and outgoing features to the Watkins Glen area. If it sounds like the SUV for you, contact Friendly Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram and we’ll get you behind the wheel.
The playfulness of the Jeep Wrangler is evident from the moment it pulls up to the curb. It can have either a 2-door or 4-door exterior in exciting colors like:
It also offers more classic hues, like Black, Granite, and Sting-Gray, so there’s something here for everyone.
It also has removable doors, a fold-down windshield, and a convertible roof in three different styles: the Sky One-Touch™ Power Top, the Sunrider® Soft Top (with or without a zipper), and the Freedom Top® 3-piece hardtop.
All these options give you the ability to choose the open-air configuration that’s the best fit for your personality.
Of course, you can’t talk about the 2020 Jeep Wrangler without mentioning its powertrain and handling capabilities.
Under the hood and hard at work is one of two available engines based on your preference:
Both engines are available with or without eTorque technology. eTorque is an innovative mild hybrid system that uses a motor to improve low-end torque for extra starting power, improved rock crawling, and an increased fuel efficiency.

Speaking of rock crawling, the Wrangler features several Trail Rated® 4×4 (4-wheel drive) systems that help to improve traction control. These are:
The Rock-Trac® 4×4 system gives you impressive control with its 4:1 low gear ratio that helps you crawl over rocks with relative ease.
The Selec-Trac® 4×4 system is a full-time 4-wheel drive system that automatically adjusts torque distribution to maximize on all-weather handling.
The Command-Trac® 4×4 system features a 2.71:1 low range for rock crawling and a neutral setting for towing.
Altogether, the Wrangler can tow a maximum of 3,500 pounds.
When you leave the trail and head back into civilian traffic, the Jeep Wrangler can provide several ways to stay aware of your surroundings. It does this through its available smart safety features like Blind Spot Monitoring. This alerts you to vehicles in your side blind spots, so that you can change lanes or merge more safely.
It also features available Automatic High-Beam Headlamps. These automatically toggle your high beams on-and-off based on the flow of oncoming traffic and other traffic patterns. This way, you can focus more of your attention on navigating a dark backroad instead of adjusting your headlights.
Other available smart safety features include:
The ParkSense® Rear Park Assist System is especially handy when you reach your destination and have to parallel park. If you’re approaching an object behind you too closely while in reverse, it’ll provide an audible chime to hit the brakes.
The off-road SUV that has consistently outperformed and out-styled other off-road vehicles is back with some impressive new performance and design features for 2020. With such a timeless classic, Jeep has been careful not to change the Wrangler too much, but the 2020 model has some great improvements to offer in this iconic SUV. Discover what 2020 holds for drivers in Watkins Glen, Geneva, and Penn Yan, New York, below!
The 2020 Jeep Wrangler is available with a diesel engine for the first time in its storied history. Not only is the Wrangler’s 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 engine with ESS highly efficient, but the 260 horsepower and staggeringly impressive 442 lb-ft of torque also make every driving situation more enjoyable. You’ll have the power and acceleration for an equally pleasant city and highway driving experience, especially when you need to ease past someone.
The diesel engine also makes the 2020 Wrangler an even greater off-road force to be reckoned with—hard to imagine given Jeep’s prominence in off-road vehicles. The torque from the diesel engine will keep you gliding along, whether across rocky trails or intermixed soft sand. If you’re up for a driving adventure, you’ll need to look at the EcoDiesel V6 engine.
The 2020 Wrangler has gone back to its classic look with the slightly rounded edges that have made the Wrangler such an iconic off-road vehicle. If you want a better view of the beautiful outdoors, you can remove the doors or pop off the top. The openness is a welcomed style choice whether you choose the 2-door or 4-door Wrangler. The interior is built for comfort as well as utility. With optional leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, soft-touch surfaces, and leather-covered stick shift, the Wrangler doesn’t miss any opportunity to be as luxurious as it is rugged.
Advances in technology have brought about impressive safety and infotainment upgrades to the 2020 Wrangler. While some drivers prefer the bare essentials of a Wrangler to enjoy a minimalist driving experience, you can opt for some great features to enhance your daily driving life.
Jeep’s Uconnect® is available in the Wrangler with a clear and easy-to-use touch screen. That means you can also include the convenience of Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ that help control the Wrangler’s infotainment and media features from your smartphone or with just your voice. One of the best parts of having the in-dash screen is that you can choose the available rearview camera, a highly convenient safety feature.
