Fuel Economy Tests

In this episode, we test drive the all new 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The Wrangler is one of the most recognizable vehicles on the road today, and quite possibly the most affordable off-roader in the North American market.

Our test model was equipped with a 3.6-litre 6-cylinder engine, which provided enough pep and power for a vehicle of this size. Our tests yielded 288km on a half tank of gas and gave a decent average fuel economy of 13.9L/100km.

After using up a half tank of gas, we were able to fill it back up for $38.08 at a fuel cost of $0.94/liter. At that rate, expect to spend around $76 for a full tank of gas.
