2025 Jeep Wrangler Engine Differences
A lineup of three powerful engine options is available for the 2025 Wrangler, each offering distinct performance capabilities for confident hauling or tackling the roads and trails ahead. Whether it’s off-road endurance, fuel efficiency, or raw power you’re looking for, each engine option is designed to perform.
3.6L Pentastar® V6
A truly capable workhorse, the 3.6L Pentastar® V6 generates a commanding 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Whether paired with the standard six-speed manual or the available eight-speed automatic transmission, the 3.6L V6 delivers smooth and confident responsiveness across challenging terrains. Its 5,000-pound towing capability makes it a dependable performer under the most demanding conditions.
2.0L Turbo I4
Boasting smooth responsiveness and athletic performance, the 2.0L turbocharged inline four-cylinder (I4) engine generates 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, matched with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds, this tough-as-nails powertrain has what it takes to face your toughest challenges.
6.4L HEMI® V8
Available exclusively in the 2025 Wrangler Rubicon 392, the trail-dominating prowess of the 6.4L HEMI® V8 engine delivers an astonishing 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque with a 3,500-pound towing capability. Engineered for serious off-roading performance, this formidable powertrain is fitted with an eight-speed automatic transmission, giving you the power you need for climbing and crawling some of the most punishing terrains imaginable.
2025 Jeep Wrangler Drivetrain Options
The 2025 Jeep Wrangler lineup comes standard with 4x4 capability, with each model distributing power dependent on specific demands. The Command-Trac® part-time 4x4 system with 2.72:1 low-range gearing delivers low-range torque when needed for navigating steep and uneven terrain. Selec-Trac® 4x4 adapts automatically to your driving environment, shifting between two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) to align with varying road or trail surfaces.
The Rock-Trac® full-time system raises the bar for hardcore off-roading, pairing a 4:1 low-gear ratio with a 100:1 crawl ratio. On the Wrangler Rubicon trims, a part-time Rock-Trac system delivers the same confident capability, bridging rugged trail performance with the versatility to also tackle your everyday commutes.
