Jeep Wrangler 2007-2017

The Jeep Wrangler is a well-known youth vehicle worldwide and has enjoyed considerable success in the Egyptian market since its introduction. The Wrangler's design has remained the same for a long time, with minor modifications to maintain its success. It is considered one of the company's most successful four-wheel-drive vehicles and is known for its outstanding off-road and unpaved capabilities. The 2011 model is priced at EGP 270,000.

The vehicle is Egyptian-made and assembled at the Arab American Vehicles Company (affiliated with the Arab Organization for Industrialization) factory located on the Cairo-Suez Desert Road.

The vehicle is available in several different versions, including the Unlimited and the two-door Wrangler. It comes with a four-wheel-drive system, making it suitable for off-roading and is characterized by its compact and medium size. Production began in 1986 and it is currently in its fourth generation, which appeared in 2017. The third generation of the car was manufactured from 2007 until 2017. It was available as a convertible, SUV, or 4-door convertible. This generation was introduced in 2006 as a 2007 model under the Daimler Chrysler name. The car featured power windows, remote door locks, and a navigation system.

The car's price in Egypt in 2010 was approximately 240,000 Egyptian pounds, but it had numerous problems, particularly with its technical and mechanical aspects, including its interior dashboard. The car was updated in 2011 with a dashboard change and mechanical updates, bringing its price to 270,000 Egyptian pounds. In 2012, the car's engine and transmission were replaced, bringing its price to 285,000 Egyptian pounds.

The car comes with a front-mounted 6-cylinder V-shaped engine with a multi-point direct injection system. The engine capacity is 3788 cc and generates 202 hp at 5200 rpm and a maximum torque of 321 Nm at 4000 rpm. The car also features a NV241 GII manual transmission with part-time drive and a 4-speed automatic transmission. The car also features a Command-Track all-wheel drive system. Fuel consumption is as follows: 16 liters per 100 km in the city 8.8 liters per 100 km on the highway 11.6 liters per 100 km, which is a high average fuel consumption. Performance is as follows: Top speed: 174 km/h 0-100 km/h acceleration takes 11.2 seconds. The car's drawback is that traction is somewhat slow in accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h, but the engine has been developed subsequently. This achieves a 25 percent improvement in acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in 8.4 seconds.

The engine sound is somewhat loud and has some thumping, which is typical of Pentastar engines.

The engine was subsequently developed into a 3.6-liter V6 Pentastar, producing 285 hp at 6,400 rpm and 352 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The car is equipped with the Command Trac system, a part-time 4×4 all-wheel drive system, and a 5-speed automatic transmission with Auto Stick.

The interior exudes a touch of luxury that adds to its sporty spirit, yet with greater practicality. It features a spacious interior that's very comfortable for travel, but some find it cramped, especially in the rear. It measures 4684 mm in length, 1877 mm in width, and 1836 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2947 mm. Its ground clearance is 262 mm, and the seating capacity is two in the front and three in the rear.

The cabin features a rich design with touchscreens, providing comfort and freedom of movement for passengers, in addition to an elegant and luxurious appearance, featuring a hardtop in the same color as the car's body. The interior also offers comfortable seating and multi-purpose features. Additionally, the car features a hardtop in the same color as the car's body, and the driving position is elevated, providing the driver with a clearer view.

The cabin features a newly designed instrument panel, generous storage space, and improved door armrests with armrests. The center console has been redesigned for easier access and operation, and it also has powerful air conditioning.

The car's sound insulation is not strong, as the roof can be retracted, especially after a speed of 100 km/h.

The large rear windows were designed to provide greater visibility. There have also been complaints about the roof and doors leaking water, especially during heavy rain.

There have also been complaints about the poor quality of the car's interior materials, especially the dashboard, which makes noise and can crack on rough roads. There have also been some complaints about the car's lighting.

Spare Parts

It can be said that car spare parts and accessories are available both inside and outside the dealership, with both original and counterfeit parts available. They can be found on Champollion Street in Cairo and some shops in Alexandria at reasonable prices for the car's model. However, in general, car spare parts are considered somewhat expensive, but they are durable.

Maintenance costs are normal, like many other cars on the market, and prices for spare parts outside the dealership are certainly lower than at the dealership. Furthermore, the unchanged appearance of the car means that spare parts from previous models of the same car are available, especially for exterior parts.

Among the parts that are best available at the dealership are brake pads and spark plugs, but other items, such as the water pump, can be purchased from outside. There are also various car maintenance centers, making it easier to find someone to maintain the car.

Suspension

The car features solid, five-link axles in the front and rear, providing a strong and durable suspension that's suitable for all terrains, whether off-road or paved. This makes the car suitable for current Egyptian road conditions and can be modified without problems, especially in the suspension. It also comes with steering axles, electronic locks, and tire sizes 255/75R17.

The car's ground clearance of 262 mm prevents it from rubbing against bumps. It's suitable for heavy off-road use and can withstand bumps in particular. It therefore has great endurance. There's also armoring at the bottom of the car, along the calipers and the two cables, from the engine bay to the rear exhaust system, making it easy to drive off-road without problems.

Many have complained that the suspension makes the car uncomfortable and dry on asphalt and regular roads, with the typical swaying and swaying. However, the suspension is more comfortable on unpaved roads. This is typical of a four-wheel-drive suspension system, and therefore, those with back problems will suffer. The car's stability is good up to 140 km/h, but it's poor after 140 km/h. Therefore, taking sharp turns or performing any sudden maneuvers is difficult, but the electronic stability system may help solve this problem.

Over time, the suspension has been modified from the previous system to improve shock absorption, and the car's height has been changed very slightly. The car's suspension and suspension can be easily adjusted.

Its prices are decreasing over time due to the removal of fuel subsidies and rising fuel prices. The car is relatively common in the used car market and is available at a good price for buyers and much lower than new models for sellers.
