Jeep’s first plug-in hybrid vehicle, the Wrangler Unlimited 4xe, is getting a price increase. Initially reported by CarsDirect, all three versions of the 4xe — the Sahara, Rubicon and High Altitude — are now $3,030 more expensive than when they first went on sale. When asked why the prices had increased, Jeep declined to comment.

With the price changes, the Sahara 4xe is now priced from $52,520, while the more luxurious High Altitude 4xe increases to $58,340. The off-road-ready Rubicon 4xe sits in between those two, with a new price of $56,220. All prices include a $1,495 destination fee but not an available $7,500 federal tax credit or any other local credits for which the 4xe might qualify.

The increases also make each version of the 4xe even more expensive than a comparable gas-only V-6 Wrangler — again, before any credits are applied. The Sahara 4xe is now $11,310 more expensive than its V-6 counterpart, while the High Altitude 4xe is $6,225 more expensive. The Rubicon 4xe has the greatest price difference at $11,460, but is also $19,715 cheaper (again, before any tax credits) than the wild Wrangler Rubicon 392.

All Wrangler 4xe variations are four-door models with a plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines electric motors and a 17.3-kilowatt-hour battery pack with a turbocharged four-cylinder gas engine, for a total system output of 375 horsepower and 470 pounds-feet of torque.
