Jeep Wrangler Gas Mileage

The Jeep Wrangler is an American icon that delivers all it promises (as long as you don’t expect exceptional gas mileage). Fuel efficiency aside, this four wheeler’s all about getting there and getting back, no matter the conditions. With the 2008 Wrangler’s gas mileage ratings and an 18.5 gallon tank there’s plenty of range to wander from the beaten path.

The 2008 Jeep Wrangler comes with a standard 3.8 liter V6 producing 202 horsepower and 237 foot pounds of torque. The V6 can be fitted with a 6-speed manual or optional 4-speed automatic transmission. Command-Trac Shift-on-the-Fly 4WD is standard on the base and Sahara packages, while the 4:1 Rock-Trac Part-Time 4WD is standard on the Rubicon. A 3.21 axle ratio is standard issue on the base and Sahara, with optional 3.73 gearing. The Sahara is fitted with 4.10 gearing.

European Jeep Wranglers can be ordered with a VM Motori 2.8 liter common rail diesel four cylinder, producing 174 HP and 302 foot pounds of torque. With a six-speed manual transmission, the two-door diesel Wrangler covers 0-62 MPH in 11.2 seconds. The diesel’s torque advantage is matched by a sizable gain in mileage, with approximate ratings of 28.3 highway / 18.5 city when converted to US gallon equivalents.
