The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier.

A jeep is definitely a SUV

Depends on which model you’re talking about.

A four door jeep is very much a SUV, a two door jeep less so.

I don’t think I agree. Pretty sure a 2 door jeep is still a sport utility vehicle

I am not a jeep fan but I don’t think I can put a 2 door YJ in the same category as say an escalade. We need to make trains and smaller cars cool again.

Which pollutes more: a new SUV or a 10-year-old conventional vehicle?
