2025 Jeep Wrangler Upgrades You Need To Know About

The iconic Jeep Wrangler continues to evolve, and the upcoming 2025 model year brings a slew of exciting upgrades that are sure to captivate off-road enthusiasts and daily drivers alike. The 2025 Jeep Wrangler is poised to raise the bar once again in the rugged SUV segment, adding a range of improvements from enhanced powertrain options to cutting-edge technology.

At Stivers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR), we aim to be your one-stop Prattville shop for all things Jeep. We'll walk you through everything that makes the 2025 Jeep Wrangler stand out as both a refined, sensible everyday vehicle and an off-road beast.

Proven Powertrains

At the heart of the 2025 Jeep Wrangler lineup, it is anticipated that it will feature the familiar 3.6L V-6 engine of the 2024 model. This powerful and reliable powertrain delivers 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, providing the signature Wrangler performance that has made it a favorite among adventurers. The standard V-6 can be paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or an eight-speed automatic. The V-6  will give you about 20 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway.

If you're looking for even more power, the 2025 Wrangler will likely offer an upgrade to its 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine. This option, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, delivers a substantial boost in torque, making the Wrangler an even more capable off-road companion. The torque number jumps up from 260 to 295 lb-ft of torque.

Topping out the Jeep powertrain lineup is the 392-cubic-inch V-8. The Wrangler 392 outputs an impressive 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. That equates to some serious off-road fun while also being quick on the road. The Wrangler 392 boasts a zero-to-60 mph time of only 4.2 seconds. 

The Wrangler is also available as the hybrid Wrangler 4xe. There's more on that below.

4xe Gets Updated

The Jeep Wrangler 4xe, the brand's popular plug-in hybrid electric model, will also receive a significant update for 2025. The new Jeep Wrangler 4xe will come equipped with the same 2.0L turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine mentioned above and an eight-speed automatic transmission with an integrated electric traction motor. The Wrangler 4xe delivers a combined output of 375 horsepower and an impressive 470 lb-ft of torque.

This electrified powertrain provides exceptional performance and adds torque to enhance the Wrangler's off-road capabilities. Drivers can expect to experience the best of both worlds — the rugged, go-anywhere attitude of the Wrangler combined with the efficiency and environmental benefits of hybrid technology. This Jeep Wrangler is rated to have an all-electric range of about 20 miles and a combined fuel efficiency rating of 49 MPGe. 

Going All Electric

Looking to the future, Jeep has hinted at the possibility of an all-electric Wrangler variant in the coming years. While not officially confirmed for the 2025 model year, this exciting development could revolutionize how we experience this classic off-road SUV.

An all-electric Wrangler would not only reduce the vehicle's carbon footprint but could also deliver unprecedented levels of instant torque and silent, emissions-free performance — perfect if you love adventure and prioritize environmental consciousness.

Better Technology

The 2025 Jeep Wrangler should also receive a host of technological upgrades to enhance the driving experience and improve safety. Standard features will include a rearview camera, hill-start assist, and the latest infotainment system.

You'll also expect to have the option to equip your Wrangler with advanced safety features such as adaptive cruise control, rear parking sensors, rear cross-traffic alert, and forward collision warning. These cutting-edge technologies will provide you with added peace of mind, both on the road and off the beaten path.

The Best Off-Roader Out There

Of course, the Wrangler's legendary off-road capabilities remain at the forefront of its appeal. The 2025 model is expected to continue to offer the standard six-speed manual transmission and part-time shift-on-the-fly four-wheel-drive (4WD) system, making it a go-to choice for thrill-seekers and adventurers.

Jeep's commitment to the Wrangler's rugged DNA is evident in the vehicle's continued emphasis on features such as live (or solid) axles, skid plates, and the option for knobby off-road tires. Combined with the Wrangler's robust construction and renowned 4WD system, these elements ensure that the 2025 Jeep will remain the king of the trail.

Plenty of Choices To Make

One of the hallmarks of the Jeep Wrangler is its seemingly endless customization options, and the 2025 model year will be no exception. You'll have the opportunity to personalize your Wrangler with an extensive selection of exterior 2025 Jeep colors, interior finishes, and performance-enhancing accessories. The 2025 Jeep Wrangler interior features the same rugged design that you know and love.

Whether you prefer the two-door model's classic look or the four-door's added practicality, the 2025 Wrangler will offer a configuration to suit your individual needs and style. Check out our Vehicle Builder for all the current Wrangler configurations. The 2025 Jeep Wrangler is expected to have the same or similar trim levels as the 2024 which includes the Sport, Sport S, Willys, Rubicon, Sahara, Rubicon X, and Rubicon 392.

Price and Availability

As with any highly anticipated new model, we're sure that the new 2025 Jeep Wrangler's pricing and availability is of great interest to you. While Jeep has not yet released official MSRP information, industry experts expect the 2025 Wrangler to maintain a similar price range to the current model, which starts at $31,995 MSRP for the base trim and can climb well into the $50,000s for higher-end trim levels.

The 2025 Wrangler is expected to hit showrooms in the fall of 2024, giving adventurous customers plenty of time to plan their next off-road excursion. With the combination of proven performance, enhanced technology, and a continued focus on the Wrangler's legendary off-road capabilities, the 2025 model will captivate both loyal Jeep enthusiasts and newcomers to the brand.
