Despite appearances, the Jeep Wrangler is very heavy, especially in its four-door configuration.
However, the next generation of the venerable fighters - in 2015 - will offer lighter models to comply with environmental standards currently in place in the United States.
Mile Manley, the head honcho of the Jeep division confirmed this during an interview with Automotive News.
In other words the future Jeep Wrangler will be cheaper and a little more civilized.
