The 2025 Jeep Wrangler offers a lot of exciting choices for off-road enthusiasts and fans of customization. One of the most notable changes for the 2025 model year is the powertrain options, which give buyers four different engine setups to choose from.
This is a great move, considering that many car manufacturers are reducing choices for their customers. Jeep, however, is keeping the flexibility that Wrangler fans love.
The new lineup includes a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine with 270 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. There’s also a 3.6-liter V6 engine, which has 285 horsepower, but here’s the twist: this engine is now only available with a six-speed manual transmission.
If you want an automatic transmission with more power, you’ll have to go for the 6.4-liter V8 engine, which delivers a hefty 470 horsepower.
For those interested in eco-friendly options, there’s the Wrangler 4xe, which combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with two electric motors, giving it an all-electric range of 21 miles and a fuel efficiency of 49 MPGe.
One surprising change is that Jeep is no longer offering the V6 with an automatic transmission, which was a popular pairing in previous models.
This might be disappointing for buyers who prefer the middle-ground option of a V6 with an automatic, as now they’ll have to choose between the less powerful four-cylinder or the much stronger V8 if they want an automatic transmission.
Jeep has also made sure that the Wrangler stays one of the most capable off-road vehicles around. The 2025 model comes with advanced four-wheel-drive systems, solid axles, and great ground clearance to handle the toughest terrains.
For safety, Jeep has added 85 different features, including side-curtain airbags and a backup camera.
The 2025 Jeep Wrangler keeps its reputation for being customizable, tough, and ready for off-road adventures. With plenty of powertrain choices, various trim levels, and new features, there’s a Wrangler for just about every type of driver.
