Engine and Towing Specs

Jeep offers three unique powertrain options for the 2025 Wrangler, each delivering a different balance of performance and efficiency. A six-speed manual V6 comes standard on select trims, while an efficient turbocharged four-cylinder paired with an eight-speed automatic is widely available. The 4xe plug-in hybrid powertrain adds a high-torque electrified option with up to 35 km of all-electric driving.

All configurations are four-wheel drive and can be equipped with heavy-duty tow packages depending on the trim.
Off-Road Capability
The Wrangler’s off-road performance is at the heart of its appeal, and in 2025, Jeep continues to refine and enhance that capability. Across the lineup, each model includes heavy-duty Dana solid front and rear axles, a two-speed transfer case, traction control, four-wheel disc brakes, tow hooks, and steel skid plates. But beyond the basics, the Wrangler offers several purpose-built off-road technologies and systems worth exploring:
Crawl Ratios
Wrangler gas-powered Rubicon models offer crawl ratios up to an extraordinary 100:1 when properly equipped. This ratio determines how slowly the vehicle can move while still generating torque—critical when inching over large rocks or technical terrain. The 4xe models also impress, offering a crawl ratio up to 77.2:1, giving hybrid buyers real-world off-road confidence.
4x4 Systems

Jeep provides four advanced four-wheel-drive systems depending on the model and purpose:
- Command-Trac 4x4 is a part-time system designed for light off-roading, snow, and slippery conditions. It includes a 2.72:1 low range and is ideal for drivers who want solid everyday traction and trail readiness.
- Selec-Trac 4x4 is a full-time system with an automatic mode that continuously shifts power between the front and rear wheels. It offers better all-weather confidence and convenience without requiring the driver to manually engage four-wheel drive.
- Rock-Trac 4x4 is found on Rubicon models and is engineered for hardcore off-roading. Available in both part-time and full-time versions, it features a 4:1 low-range gear ratio and electronic locking differentials.
- 4xe-Specific Systems mirror their ICE counterparts but have been adapted for hybrid drivetrains, maintaining the same trail capability while improving efficiency.
Ground Clearance and Angles
Thanks to available 33- or 35-inch tires and off-road suspension packages, the 2025 Wrangler achieves impressive clearance:
- Up to 12.9 inches of ground clearance on ICE models with 35-inch tires
- Best-in-class breakover angle of 32.4 degrees with the Xtreme 35 Tire Package
- Approach and departure angles up to 47.4 and 40.4 degrees respectively
4xe models offer slightly less ground clearance at 10.9 inches, with approach, breakover, and departure angles still among the best in the segment.
Off-Road Upgrades
Rubicon X and Willys trims offer specialized gear straight from the factory. These include an available 8,000-lb Warn winch, off-road front camera, steel bumpers, locking rear differentials, and full-float Dana 44 HD axles designed to accommodate larger wheels and tires.
The factory Xtreme 35 Tire Package equips models like the Rubicon X with 35-inch tires, enhanced suspension, and improved articulation, all while retaining full factory warranty coverage.
What’s New in 2025

Beyond mechanical upgrades, the 2025 Wrangler introduces several comfort and tech improvements. All models now include power locks and power windows, improving daily usability across the board. A new Active Cabin Ventilation system, available on select trims, allows remote air circulation via the Jeep mobile app—a useful feature for extreme weather conditions.
Also new is the ‘41 exterior colour, a military-inspired olive drab that connects to Jeep’s roots. This colour joins a wide range of options from vibrant blues to classic greys.
2025 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Details
The Wrangler 4xe lineup returns for 2025 with the same powerful and efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain. The system pairs a 2.0-litre turbocharged engine with two electric motors and a 17-kWh battery to deliver a total output of 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. This setup allows for up to 35 kilometres of electric-only driving and 4.8 Le/100 km combined fuel consumption.
E Selec drive modes let drivers switch between:
- Hybrid Mode, which uses electric power first before switching to gas
- Electric Mode, offering silent, zero-emission driving
- eSave Mode, which conserves battery for later use or recharges it while driving
Advanced trims such as the Rubicon X 4xe add Nappa leather seats, 12-way power adjustments, a body-colour hardtop, integrated navigation, and an off-road front camera. Select models also include the Jeep 4xe Power Box, which enables the battery to power external devices like camping gear or tools through four 120-volt outlets.

Despite being a hybrid, the Wrangler 4xe maintains serious off-road geometry, Dana solid axles, locking differentials, and high-performance 4x4 systems—ensuring there are no compromises when heading off the pavement.
Conclusion
The 2025 Jeep Wrangler continues to offer one of the most complete off-road packages available, with updated technology, improved standard features, and unmatched customization. Whether you choose a classic gas model or the forward-thinking 4xe hybrid, every Wrangler is built for adventure. With legendary hardware, refined comfort, and more user-friendly tech than ever before, the Wrangler proves once again why it remains the benchmark in the world of rugged VUS.
