Jeep Wrangler scoops top off-road honours
The legendary Jeep Wrangler has demonstrated its continued
success as a serious off-roader after scooping another major honour
- 4x4 of the Year, Hardcore class.
The award, which goes specifically to the four-door Wrangler
Unlimited, comes from long-established specialist publication 4x4
Magazine, whose panel of expert judges put the rugged US-built
off-roader at the top of a list of extremely capable
competitors.
The judges praised the Wrangler's off-roading capability, style,
equipment and value for money.
Commenting on the result, Nigel Fryatt, editor, 4x4 Magazine
said: "This year's 4x4 of the Year competition was as competitive
as ever. In the Hardcore class, however, first place was a
unanimous vote among the judges, with the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
taking the class win.
"Head to head with the Land Rover Defender off-road there's
little to choose, but if you had to live with either on a daily
basis, in all-weathers, all traffic conditions, on and off-road,
then there's only one choice. It has to be the Jeep."
