2021 Off-Road "Adventure" Vehicle of the Year: Jeep Wrangler

Increasingly, off-road driving capabilities are becoming a bigger priotity for automakers with their utility-model and truck offerings. Models offering driving modes designed for extreme adventures, even versions deisgned outright to go off-road, are multiplying across the landscape. Nevertheless, it's a veteran that wins out. We know what the Jeep Wrangler can do, but what's interesting in 2021 is that the number of variants is increasing (V8 engine, 4x hybrid version), a sign that the competition is getting fiercer. This year, that came from the Ford F-150 Raptor, as well as the new Ram 1500 TRX.

We shoulfd also mention the ZR2 version of the Colorado, which could also have been a finalist, as well as the Ford Bronco, which seems to have all the tools to win in this category. However, as is the case with the Chevrolet Corvette, we'd have tofirst  get behind the wheel to be able to make any kind of opionion about it.
