The Jeep Wrangler 4xe uses a standard J1772 AC charging connector and supports both Level 1 (120‑volt) and Level 2 (240‑volt) charging, but it does not support DC fast (Level 3) charging.​

What type of charger does a Jeep Wrangler 4xe use?

The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is a plug‑in hybrid SUV with a 17.3 kWh lithium‑ion battery that can be charged from external power. It uses the common J1772 plug for AC charging, which is the standard connector at most home and public Level 2 stations in North America.​
You get a Level 1 (120V) home charging cable with the vehicle, and you can optionally install or use a Level 2 (240V) charger for much faster charging.​

Level 1 Jeep Wrangler 4xe charger (120V)

The included Level 1 cable is a portable charger that plugs into a normal household 120‑volt outlet. This option is slow but convenient, ideal if you drive short distances or can leave the car plugged in overnight.​
On Level 1, a full charge from empty typically takes around 10–12 hours, which fits well for overnight charging at home.​

Main points about the stock Level 1 Jeep Wrangler 4xe charger:

• Uses a standard household 120V outlet.​
• Portable and included with the vehicle.​
• Best for overnight charging or low‑mileage daily use.​

Level 2 charger for Jeep 4xe (240V)

A Level 2 charger (often called a Jeep 4xe Level 2 charger) uses a 240‑volt supply and dramatically cuts charging time. The Wrangler 4xe’s onboard charger can accept up to about 7.2 kW, so a 32A–40A Level 2 unit is ideal.​
With a suitable Level 2 charger, you can usually fully charge the Jeep Wrangler 4xe battery in about 2–2.5 hours instead of 10–12 hours on Level 1.​

Key features to look for in a Level 2 charger for Jeep 4xe:

• J1772 connector (required for Wrangler 4xe).​
• 32A or 40A output at 240V (NEMA 14‑50 or 14‑30 plug, or hardwired).​
• Optional smart features such as Wi‑Fi, app control, and scheduling to charge during off‑peak electricity hours.​

Can the Jeep Wrangler 4xe use DC fast charging?

The Jeep Wrangler 4xe is not compatible with Level 3 DC fast charging (CCS or CHAdeMO). Its charging system is designed only for AC Level 1 and Level 2 charging, so DC fast chargers at highway stations will not work with this vehicle.​​
This means your main choices are home or workplace Level 2 charging, the included Level 1 cable, and public AC Level 2 stations.​

Jeep EV charger options and home setup

When choosing a Jeep EV charger for home, you can pick a wall‑mounted unit or a portable Level 2 charger that plugs into a 240V outlet. Many owners install a NEMA 14‑50 or NEMA 14‑30 outlet in the garage and use a 32A–40A J1772 charger to get close to the Wrangler 4xe’s maximum AC charging speed.​
Some chargers offer adjustable current settings (for example 16A, 24A, 32A, 40A), which helps if your home electrical panel has limited capacity. This type of flexible Level 2 Jeep 4xe charger is a good choice if you plan to keep the car long term or add another EV later.​

Jeep charging and “Jeep charging station near me”

Public “Jeep charging” is simply public EV charging using J1772 Level 2 AC connectors, which work with the Wrangler 4xe. You can find these by searching “EV charging station” or “Jeep charging station near me” in map apps or dedicated charging apps, then filtering for Level 2 / J1772.​​
At these locations, avoid spots that only provide DC fast‑charge plugs (CCS/CHAdeMO) without a J1772 handle, because the Wrangler 4xe cannot use those connectors.​
