Bought a sun rider too for the sunny days-perfect! in the wind, snow, rain, it is stable and capable. Off road the Rubicon package is incredible!

Electric is super smooth and in hybrid mode the Jeep can hustle. We have not towed with it yet though.

We bought this to commute but also to explore. Has been incredible overall.

Pros
Styling
it’s a very good looking vehicle
Cons
Ride and Handling
The car runs/sounds very rough when not in Hybrid/electric mode. It’s actually concerning. Even accelerating seems to be a struggle. The engine is very loud a lot of the time and then gets quiet. I’ve mentioned it to the Jeep dealer as I had to take it in to be fixed 28 days after purchasing because the gas neck had a leak which caused the check engine light to come on but they didn’t mention anything on that issue. Planning on taking it back to be looked at.
Fuel Economy
The hybrid battery is not great. Only gets 20mi before it’s in the > negative. It also takes a very long time to charge back to 100%.
Power
Noticed if it’s too cold out and read it also happens when it’s too hot, you can’t put it in Electric mode. Last week it was pretty cold out and I started to drive in hybrid mode but noticed the battery was lasting way longer than usual. I realized that even though it was in hybrid mode, it was actually driving in e-save and when I tried to switch to electric, I received an error message.
Pros
Power
A joy to drive, when it's working.
Cons
Reliability
Within the first 90 days: 1. Front camera cracked. 2. The famous Death Wobble die to defective steering components. 3. Air conditioner compressor failed. 4. Battery heating and cooling pump failed. 5. Factory recall for possible battery fires. Unable to park inside or charge the battery until this is resolved.
