The award was revealed at the 2020 Australian Motoring Awards, held at the Showgrounds in Flemington, Melbourne.
</strong>
After an exhaustive testing process – at the Melbourne 4x4 Training and Proving Ground in Werribee and then out past Healesville and Marysville in Victoria – the seven vehicles were compared against the proven 4X4 Australia judging criteria: value for money; breaking new ground; built tough; bushability; and doing the job.

It’s more than fitting that the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon climbs to the top level of the podium here and not just for what it does. It’s what the Rubicon represents in terms of 4x4 history and its impeccable bloodline back to where the 4x4 world as we know it today all begun.

JUDGES’ TOTAL SCORES
Jeep Wrangler Rubicon: 246
Suzuki Jimny: 244
Land Rover Discovery Sd6: 238
Nissan Navara N-Trek Warrior: 232
SsangYong Musso XLV: 225
Mitsubishi Triton: 224
Mercedes-Benz X350d: 211

Hats off to Jeep for sticking to the basic 4x4 design principles of a separate chassis and front and rear live-axle suspension when other 4x4 manufacturers have turned their back on this old-school approach, which is still the best way to build a serious 4x4.

Get one now because the 2.2 Diesel is now dead for 2021.

Good. Bring on the 3.0L Diesel

I think you'll find there will be no diesel at all. From what I've read, the new Grand Cherokee wont have one either.

The scores were, I believe, a little manipulated. Here are the true scores -

Oh, wow! So there was something fishy going on. That's too bad. Nonetheless, I still have a gripe with its stock wheels. They don't look nice at all. I bought a few rims from 4WheelOnline a few weeks ago, and my Rubicon is looking better than that.
