THE Jeep Wrangler continues to demonstrate its award-winning credentials after taking 4x4 Magazine’s 4x4 of the Year, Hardcore class, for the second year running.

The award, which goes specifically to the four-door Wrangler, comes from the specialist publication’s panel of expert judges, who put the rugged US-built off-roader above some extremely capable competitors.

In the same awards, Jeep’s new Grand Cherokee received a “highly commended” accolade in the Premiums category.

In awarding it top honours, the 4x4 of the Year competition judges praised the Wrangler’s value for money, comfortable interior, off-roading ability, towing prowess and iconic design.

“The Jeep Wrangler remains 4x4 Magazine’s Hardcore Class champion. It effortlessly demonstrates its off-road capabilities with immense power and torque, while delivering a gorgeously low, first crawler gear for when finesse is needed,” says Nigel Fryatt, the magazine’s editor.

The diesel-powered automatic Wrangler returns 34.9 mpg (34.0 mpg four-door) on the combined cycle and has a CO2 figure of 213g/km (217g/km four-door). Prices start at £27,315 on-the-road.

for the two-door Wrangler 2.8 CRD Sahara, rising to £31,670 for the four-door 2.8 CRD Overland Axle +.

Now with lower emissions of 198g/km, together with fuel consumption of up to 37.7mpg (combined), the new Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel range also offers real value in terms of running costs. The new Grand Cherokee range starts at £36,995 (on-the-road) for the 3.0 CRD V6 CRD Laredo, rising to £49,495 for the 3.0 V6 CRD Summit.
