Never change, Jeep. Never change
One of the interesting things about spending time on both sides of the Atlantic is the chance it gives to see the car world from both ends of a telescope. The last Jeep Wrangler I drove in the States a couple of years ago was about as basic as they come, being a two-door with a cloth roof, a V6 engine that seemed better at delivering noise than progress and a six-speed manual gearbox.
Answering ‘what's new?’ won’t take long. The Wrangler has always evolved at a gentle pace throughout its long life, and the JL facelift is likely one that only Jeep nerds will be able to spot from the outside. For the record the seven-slot radiator grille is new and the headlights are now LED units. There are bigger changes in the cabin with a new 12.3-inch touchscreen in the centre of the dashboard.
The Wrangler also handles much better than you would expect given the combination of a separate chassis, live axles at both ends and recirculating ball steering. The ride is definitely busy at lower speeds, especially on rougher surfaces, and tackling dips and compressions at speed creates some slight floatiness as the dampers struggle to counter and digest the wheel travel.
