Ya you can see where it gets about 22% better in the city where the smaller displacement and mild hybrid system shine. One hwy ratings it's a tad better but not much can help a brick on wheels :)

Was just poking around on fueleconomy.gov and saw that according to the EPA the JK automatic costs $3.93 to drive 25 miles, the JL with the pentastar and an automatic costs $3.54 per 25 miles, the 2.0L JL costs $3.57 per 25 miles. So the smaller displacement mild hybrid system is actually more expensive to run than pentastar?

I sort of want the turbo. Being in Colorado I like forced induction so I don't lose so much power due to the altitude. But with the placement of the batteries and the reliability concerns I already have about Chrysler (I owned a Commander at one point, I'm still mad about it), and that I'm not saving anything at the pump... I think I'll be sticking with the Pentastar.
