About the Wrangler JK Unlimited Rubicon 3.8 V6 198

The 2007 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited Rubicon 3.8 V6 198 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 1,720 kg with 196 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.99 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,979th quickest to 60 mph, and the 29th quickest of the 68 Jeeps here. Its 84.8 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited Rubicon 3.8 V6 198 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
