The all-new 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid has just started to arrive in Canadian dealerships as the brand’s first-ever gas-electric model sold in the country. As far as styling is concerned, you’ll notice some unique blue accents on the body and tow hooks, plus a charging door on the …

FCA has seemingly become the go-to manufacturer for pickups. The next-generation Ram 1500 is The Car Guide ’s Best Buy among full-size pickups for the second consecutive year, while the all-new Jeep Gladiator is our Best Buy in the midsize pickup segment. These two models have even been named the …

After it was released back in 2006, the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 was considered a poor man’s alternative to a Porsche Cayenne Turbo, rocking a 6.1-litre HEMI V8 with 425 horsepower and a chest hair-raising soundtrack. It was fast, it was relatively affordable—compared to the Porsche—and it was very popular.

The Jeep Cherokee hasn’t had it easy ever since it came back, replacing the Liberty, in 2014. Gone was the traditional and much coveted longitudinal rear-wheel drive layout that made Jeep’s SUV so distinguished and capable for almost three decades.

The Jeep Wrangler as we know it is about to change. Or, at least, that’s what FCA tells us. A new version of the iconic, military inspired all-terrain machine is scheduled to arrive next year. Enthusiasts will call it the JL. The current model, or also known as the JK, …

The new 2017 Jeep Compass is the only true 4x4 in the compact utility vehicle segment. Yes, the “little” Jeep has grown enough to get an upgrade from the subcompact SUV category. However, will this be sufficient for consumers to accept its price—now much higher than the first generation’s—an underwhelming …

Humans are a funny bunch sometimes. We’ve been known to make questionable acquisitions in our lives that often go against reason, but that give us pleasure. A good example might be an early twenty-something-year-old who forked out the equivalent of a down payment on a house in order to make …

The more an SUV costs, the less likely you’ll see one crawling over rocks, fording streams and rolling off the beaten path—even if it could. Brands such as Land Rover and Jeep are masters of off-roading, and virtually every vehicle in their lineups could tackle just about any type of …
