2024 Jeep Wrangler

Wheel warming has gone mainstream, with the feature standard or optional not just on luxury vehicles, but on an increasing number of models with sticker prices of $40,000 or less.

Changes to the Wrangler for the 2024 model are predictably incremental, focusing more on refinement and increased capability rather than styling updates.

There are lots of choices among the cheaper-to-buy-and-drive mid-size SUVs that, when properly configured, can safely tow at least 5,000 pounds.

The list of model-year 2023-24 cars with manual transmissions skews mostly to affordable models and those that are more enthusiast-oriented, but there’s still a decent range of choices.

The refreshed 2024 Jeep Wrangler features several subtle but significant upgrades that bring more capabilities and improve safety without upsetting the fundamental Wrangler experience.

For 2024, the Wrangler gets its first big update since the Bronco’s reemergence, and Jeep has made some meaningful, useful improvements to America’s favorite SUV.
