Three Terrific Wrangler Trims to Check Out When Shopping Used

A green 2024 Jeep Wrangler Sahara is shown from the front at an angle after leaving a used Jeep dealer.

Have you been looking for an impressive and highly capable off-road SUV to power your adventures? When it comes to open-air freedom, unstoppable 4WD capability, and heavy-duty components that can weather just about any terrain, it simply has to be the Wrangler. Many other manufacturers have attempted to make vehicles that compete with the Wrangler, but none of them offer the rugged abilities this iconic off-roader brings to the table. 

Few vehicles can proudly be named amongst those driven by military personnel, and the Wrangler is one of them. And if it's tough enough for WWII soldiers, the Wrangler should be tough enough for your off-road adventures. Ready to find yours? As a used Jeep dealer, we have tons of pre-owned Wrangler models to check out. Below, we'll cover three awesome trims to look for when shopping for a pre-owned model. And if you need help narrowing down some options, our team here at Randy Marion Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will be happy to help out.

The Wrangler Sahara

Many call the Sahara the "road trip" model in the Wrangler family. It, of course, has the off-road, rugged features you'd expect from a Wrangler. However, it adds some creature comforts that some say make it right for long stretches on paved roads (when you're forced to stick to those). But first, let's assure you that it is an off-road-ready vehicle, and its Command-Trac 4x4 System is a testament to that. This is a part-time, shift-on-the-fly system that helps manage traction in low-speed situations. It divides torque equally between the front and rear axles, providing seamless transitions at speeds up to 45 mph. 

The Sahara boasts some epic style details, too, like polished aluminum wheels and painted Granite Crystal spokes. Pair those with the Silver Metallic grille accents, and what you get is an SUV that somehow looks like it's both from the future and the old Wild West at the same time. Skid plates add to the rugged appeal, and of course, add off-road functionality as they protect important components from scratches and dings.

A leather-wrapped steering wheel not only looks nice but is also soft to the touch for long drives. Then there's the soft-wrapped console lid and armrests, that provide you and a co-pilot a comfortable place to rest your elbows while you map out your next adventure. Smartphone compatibility makes it easy to connect your Apple or Android phone to the Uconnect touchscreen, control your playlists, and view navigation from there. The Sahara is a nice blend of interior comfort and exterior toughness. It's almost like it was designed for long treks through the region for which it's named.

The Wrangler High Altitude

If you're wondering what the most luxurious trim of the Wrangler is, that would be the High Altitude. The High Altitude blends urban sophistication with the rugged Wrangler handling you desire. Bumpers, fender flares, and the Freedom Top three-piece modular hardtop are all body color here, giving the High Altitude a slick, city-ready aesthetic. Its wide-track axles give it a bold stance that's also functional on tough terrain. The premium LED light group also improves visibility in low-light settings—whether you're under the stars in the wild or just dealing with smog in the city.

It's on the inside, though, where the High Altitude really shines. That's where you're going to find premium Nappa leather-trimmed seats that you'll just want to live in. If you only like things to be rugged outside of your vehicle but demand the finer things inside of it, these Nappa seats should satisfy your needs. Meanwhile, an 8.4-inch full-color touchscreen is great for displaying directions to that remote off-road trail…or that next appointment in the city. 

Speaking of directions, Uconnect with 4C Nav comes standard on this trim. This gets you turn-by-turn directions, points of interest (looking for a great coffee spot en route? How about a secret waterfall?), and a map view if you want a bigger picture look at where you're headed. Furthermore, a 7-inch driver information display shows you important vehicle and journey stats that help you know how your vehicle is doing when you need to stop to attend to it, and more. 

The Wrangler Rubicon

Last but certainly not least is the Rubicon. The Rubicon is the ultimate off-road SUV. It's the off-road trim of an already designated off-road vehicle, so you can imagine the perks hiding in this model. Luckily, you don't have to just imagine them because we have this model and would love to show it to you. Serious trail explorers will be thrilled if they find a Rubicon with the available factory-installed auxiliary switch bank, which lets you attach up to four accessories that you can control via your dash. So, what are some fun ways to use that? For starters, you can wire lighting to it, meaning you can attach a light bar on top of your Wrangler or auxiliary lighting on the front bumper.

A bolted-on front-passenger grab handle is ready to let you steady yourself when you go flying over mounds of dirt and sand. The ultra-strong steel bumpers will also protect your undercarriage when you hit rough patches. Plus, they are winch-compatible, in case you'd like to pull a buddy out of a sticky situation. It even has removable end caps to help you get through narrow paths. Then, there's the front sway bar disconnect system. Press a button, and that sway bar will disconnect, letting that front axle float and enabling your tires to keep better traction with the ground even when things get bumpy.

We haven't even touched on style details yet. These include perks like anodized mid-dash panels and red accent stitching on leather-trimmed seats. The inside of the Rubicon makes quite a statement and will set the mood for your greatest adventures. You've never seen something so beautiful and beastly before.

More Luxury, Ingenuity, and Capability: A Look at Grand Cherokee Updates Since 2020

What’s the best way to bring your dreams of adventure to life with your next vehicle? Moreover, is it possible to do this without spending a fortune on a new model? As your premier used Jeep dealer, we are excited to say that it’s not only possible but an everyday reality for our customers thanks to models like the award-winning Grand Cherokee. more A staple in the Jeep lineup since the early 1990s, the Grand Cherokee is a best-selling SUV known for its competency on and off the pavement and its luxurious cabin that blends athleticism with sophistication and ingenuity. This combination is prominent throughout our selection of used Grand Cherokee models, with most customers turning to 2020 or newer models to enjoy modern styling, capability, and technologies comparable to the newest Grand Cherokees on our lot. Appreciating the Legacy: Grand Cherokee History Investing in a used Grand Cherokee means joining an incredible legacy that’s defined the American landscape since the 1940s. Jeep was born of necessity when it responded to a bid from the American military for a light reconnaissance vehicle. The Willys Quad was vital in the war, leading Jeep to expand to the civilian side. The Quad paved the way for the Wrangler and, ultimately, the Grand Cherokees on our lot today. Decades after Jeep introduced its CJ or Civilian Jeep, the automaker answered the need for a more luxurious and adventurous SUV with the Grand Cherokee. The mid-size SUV made an incredible debut when it crashed through the glass windows of Cobo Hall during the 1992 Detroit Auto Show. It broke the proverbial glass ceiling by encouraging drivers to shift their perspective of what an off-road-capable SUV should be. With the Grand Cherokee, adventure can also be luxurious. Grand Cherokee Highlights: 2020 to Present Today, every Grand Cherokee in our inventory embodies this incredible legacy and continues a rich tradition of balancing luxury with capability. More importantly, Jeep consistently updates the Grand Cherokee to introduce new capabilities and features. Because of this, late fourth- and early fifth-generation models are popular finds on our used lot. 2020 Grand Cherokee: The Year of Trim and Package Updates Jeep made several updates to the Grand Cherokee’s trim and packages in 2020. The seven-trim lineup starts with the Laredo and Limited, followed by the Trailhawk, Overland, Summit, SRT, and Trackhawk. The trims boast distinct personalities and capabilities, courtesy of Jeep’s award-winning Pentastar 3.6L V6 that serves as the base powerplant. The 475-hp 6.4L V8 powers the SRT, while the potent Trackhawk generates 707 horsepower from its supercharged 6.2L V8. New trim details and package options for the 2020 Grand Cherokee start with the Premium Lighting Group, which adds high-intensity headlamps, LED fog lights, automatic high beams, and signature daytime running lights. Jeep expands the availability of its Active Safety Group to the Laredo, a significant upgrade to the base trim. The suite adds Forward Collision Warning-Plus, LaneSense Lane Departure Warning-Plus, Advanced Brake Assist, and auto high beams. Trim-specific updates include a new wheel option—20-inch Titanium Aluminum wheels—for the Trackhawk and a Signature Leather-Wrapped Interior Package that trims the cabin in Black and Ski Gray. The Overland and Summit also introduce new interior options, with Jeep pairing Dark Sienna and Black on the Overland and Brown with Light Frost on the Summit. The High Altitude is instantly recognizable by its Low Gloss Granite Crystal wheels, while the Limited and Trailhawk feature a standard sunroof that adds to their opulence. 2021 Grand Cherokee: The Commemorative Anniversary Edition The 2021 Grand Cherokee celebrates Jeep’s rich history with the 80th Anniversary Edition. Based on the Limited, the special edition Grand Cherokee exudes luxury with its leather seating, Light Tungsten interior accents, commemorative badging, and extensive suite of advanced connectivity, safety, and driver-assist technologies. Jeep spares no expense and outfits the model with the Pro Tech II Package, adding features like Full-Speed Collision Warning with Active Braking, Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, and Advanced Brake Assist. The rest of the Grand Cherokee lineup sees modest updates for 2021. The Limited introduces a dual-pane sunroof and a nine-speaker audio system with the Sun and Sound Package. The Laredo X adds an expansive 8.4-inch touchscreen with navigation and luxuries like heated front seats and a heated, leather-wrapped steering wheel. 2022 Grand Cherokee: A New Generation and a Growing Lineup Jeep introduced the fifth-generation Grand Cherokee in 2022, redesigning the award-winning SUV and expanding its lineup to offer more capability and innovation. You’ll see this firsthand as you shop for a 2022 Grand Cherokee, especially with the first-ever Grand Cherokee 4xe and the Trailhawk 4xe. These trims electrify the Grand Cherokee as plug-in hybrid vehicles that boast an estimated range of 440 miles and redefine the all-immersive Jeep experience with a near-silent 25-mile all-electric range perfect for venturing into the woods. With 375 hp and 470 lb-ft of near-instant torque to complement Jeep’s legendary four-wheel-drive systems, the Grand Cherokee 4xe trims are competent adventurers on and off the pavement. The 2022 Grand Cherokee’s redesign also introduces a more spacious, luxurious, and tech-savvy cabin. With an increase in passenger and cargo volumes, the Grand Cherokee showcases Jeep’s keen attention to detail by blending functionality and luxury. This balance is especially apparent in trims like the Summit Reserve, which features Palermo leather seats and Jeep’s all-immersive 19-speaker, 950-watt McIntosh audio system. Drivers who appreciate modern technologies will want to start their Grand Cherokee with the 2022 model. Jeep introduced the Uconnect 5 system and debuted a segment first with the front passenger touchscreen display. The expansive digital displays complement the Grand Cherokee’s comprehensive suite of driver-assist technologies that include over 110 features like Active Driving Assist and a 360-degree surround-view camera. 2023 Grand Cherokee: The Evolution Continues Riding the heels of its fifth-generation debut, the Grand Cherokee sees few updates for 2023. Jeep finetunes the Grand Cherokee’s lineup to reflect the growing demands, particularly its commitment to a future of “Zero Emissions Freedom.” We see this in the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, which, as of 2023, is only available as a plug-in hybrid or 4xe model. Beyond the Trailhawk’s update, the 2023 Grand Cherokee sees more features added to various trims. For example, the Limited and Overland models come with a 10.1-inch touchscreen with the Uconnect 5 NAV system. You can also find trim-specific upgrades, like the nine-speaker audio system on the Limited or the 19-speaker McIntosh system on the Overland and Summit. Get Behind the Wheel of a Pre-Owned Grand Cherokee and Join the Legacy Jeep has an impressive history in the American automotive landscape, with models like the Grand Cherokee proving that luxury and adventure aren’t mutually exclusive. Because of this, finding a used Grand Cherokee is an excellent investment because it means joining the Jeep family and reaping the rewards of the brand’s legendary capability without paying the new car MSRP. So, how do you choose the perfect year model? You can’t go wrong shopping for a 2020 or newer Grand Cherokee. As you narrow your options, consider your wants and must-haves in your next SUV. Do you dream of driving an exclusive model like the 80th Anniversary Edition? Do you want a powerhouse like the Trailhawk, and, more specifically, would you like it with a hybrid powertrain? These questions can help you finetune your search and put you in the driver’s seat of an award-winning Grand Cherokee destined to make every moment an adventure.
