Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs. Toyota 4Runner Engines
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe has a lone powertrain. The 2.0-liter inline-4 DOHC direct-injection Turbo PHEV engine works with electric motors and a 17-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. The electric motors provide torque that improves rock crawling capabilities.
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe's electrified powertrain is more robust, producing 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. That blows past the Toyota 4Runner, which only achieves 270 horsepower and 278 pound-feet of torque from its 4.0-liter V6 engine.
Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs. Toyota 4Runner Performance
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe delivers more heart-pounding performance off-road and on-road compared to the Toyota 4Runner. The superior performance outputs and the following features make that clear.
While the 4Runner features Multi-Terrain Select, it doesn't offer regenerative braking or three unique drive modes - Hybrid, Electric, and eSave Mode - like the Jeep Wrangler 4xe.
Both SUVs offer 4x4 capability, but the Toyota 4Runner doesn't tout a Trail Rated® badge like the Jeep Wrangler 4xe. Jeep's SUV offers 30 inches of water fording through North Carolina creeks and streams that Toyota's SUV can't match. Ground clearance for Jeep's SUV is also superior, checking in at 9.7 inches, compared to 9.6 inches for the 4Runner.
It's no surprise that the Wrangler 4xe is more efficient, earning 49 MPGe and offering 21 miles of all-electric range on North Carolina trails. The Toyota 4Runner is a gas guzzler, earning a mere 19 miles per gallon. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is also the industry's first PHEV with front and rear locking differentials.
Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs. Toyota 4Runner Interior & Exterior
The Jeep Wrangler 4xe shows off stunning electric blue tow hooks. The Toyota 4Runner can't match those or the Wrangler 4xe's design choices of two doors or four doors and soft tops or Sunrider® hard tops.
The Toyota 4Runner doesn't offer cabin storage convenience like the Wrangler 4xe's Trail Rail™ System, Jeep Utility Grid, and removable cargo floor. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe's interior is also superior thanks to its water-resistant removable carpet and one-way floor drain valves.
Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs. Toyota 4Runner Tech

Jeep Skill for Amazon Alexa is also more personalized than the Toyota 4Runner's Alexa compatibility.
Jeep Wrangler 4xe vs. Toyota 4Runner Safety
The 4Runner includes the standard Toyota Safety Sense™ P suite. These SUV match each other with an advanced cruise control system, Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection, and automatic high beams, but the Jeep Wrangler 4xe offers 75 standard and available safety and security features, far outnumbering its counterpart.
