And while these three contenders are all guilty as charged, they go about their own respective business in very different ways. Ford’s Ranger Raptor is a high-performance four-wheel-drive ute, while Jeep has applied their time-honoured off-road chassis into their own new Gladiator ute. And Land Rover’s new Defender is the British off-road icon, completely reimagined through a modern lens...
The short-wheelbase Wrangler Rubicon is making a short comeback to Australia in 2021, with only 40 vehicles making up a 100-strong contingent of ‘Recon’ special-edition models.
It’s time to draw curtains on our time with the Jeep Compass, as our long-term loan concludes. And it’s been an overall positive experience with Jeep’s small SUV, in its cheapest Night Eagle guise.
We take the Jeep Compass long-termer down to the NSW south coast for a road trip with a difference.
We welcome the Night Eagle to the CarAdvice office with some impressive standard inclusions, but you won't see it off-road.
It’s been a long time between drinks for Australians wanting a Jeep 4x4 ute, but the wait is finally over. The 2020 Jeep Gladiator has arrived, and we have a Punk’n Orange Rubicon specification to sample.

The Jeep Gladiator will arrive into Australia with all the fanfare you'd expect, given we've wanted a Wrangler-based ute for a long time.
To diesel, or not to diesel? That is the question for prospective Wrangler Rubicon buyers. For the first time, you can now opt for diesel power in your 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Sam Purcell finds out what the Wrangler Rubicon diesel is like to drive.
For all their foibles, warts and all, these three 4X4s remain beloved in the hearts of off-roading enthusiasts old and new. But, out of the new 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2019 Suzuki Jimny and 2019 Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series 'Troopcarrier', which is most capable and our favourite off-road? Find out, right here.
Buying a Wrangler isn't a decision based on a strong form of logic. It comes from another place; the other part of our body that has a say in these kinds of decisions.
