Technically, sure, the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet is an all-wheel-drive open-top vehicle too. But it's derived from a car-based crossover, doesn't have a separate chassis or rock-climbing chops-- and it's far more at home ushering around middle-aged lady real-estate brokers than hauling, climbing, mudding, or towing, all of which the Wrangler seems to do with glee.

Jeep goes to great lengths to preserve the Wrangler's authenticity. You can still remove its top, completely, and flip down the windshield. The hinges are still exposed, attached to flat sheetmetal and a visual toughness that deliberately avoids soft curves or mass-market appeal. All over the world, its buyers wouldn't have it any other way. And that authenticity goes a long way toward making the other Jeep products, whether family SUVs or smaller crossovers, just that much more desirable than their competitors.
A pair of models are available: the two-door Jeep Wrangler and four-door Wrangler Unlimited. Both are and far more comfortable than in the past, or than you 'd guess. Either offers a choice of soft or hard tops, and either top can rightly be called one of the Jeep's best features. Though they allow lots of road noise in the cabin, they can completely open the cabin of both the two- and four-door models, turning a hardtop Jeep into a convertible SUV. When you don't mind a little turbulence and wind in your hair, with the top removed (and even in some low-speed cases, the windshield folded down) the Wrangler can hit the spot, bringing the sensations of a convertible into a very capable off-roader. Jeep has improved its soft top design, making it much easier to use, but it's still a complex, multi-hand operation.

In 2012, Jeep introduced its Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 to the Wrangler, along with a new five-speed automatic transmission, and it's made this the standard powertrain. A six-speed manual is still offered, too. The V-6 and automatic combination can now dash to 60 mph in a much faster 8.4 seconds for the Wrangler Unlimited, or 7.7 seconds for the two-door Wrangler. There's surprisingly strong passing pep, and revs are kept low. About the only complaint we have is with the old (but very rugged) recirculating-ball steering gear and its dullness. Well, that and its 16-mpg EPA city rating.
