2025 Jeep Wrangler: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2025 Jeep Wrangler gets a light trim-and-equipment update, led by standard power windows and power door locks across the lineup. It is not another redesign after the larger 2024 refresh.
About the 2025 Jeep Wrangler
4th generation Wrangler (JL, introduced for 2018); 2025 is the second year after the 2024 refresh.
The Wrangler is Jeep’s core open-air off-road SUV: removable doors and roof, real low-range four-wheel drive, and trim levels that range from simple trail toy to luxury-leaning or plug-in-hybrid adventure rig. Jeep positions it as the original, unmistakably rugged choice for buyers who want true trail capability first, not just SUV styling. Compared with more road-focused rivals, Wrangler stands out for its removable body pieces, serious off-road hardware and broad mix of gas, plug-in-hybrid and V8 personalities.
The 2025 lineup ranges from the simple, open-air Sport to the more comfort-focused Sahara and the trail-focused Rubicon. The 4xe plug-in-hybrid range includes the adventure-themed Backcountry 4xe and heritage-inspired Willys ’41 4xe, while the Rubicon 392 Final Edition pairs serious trail hardware with a 6.4-liter V8 and a more premium cabin.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 2025 Jeep Wrangler a redesign?
No. The 2025 Wrangler remains part of the fourth-generation JL lineup and arrives one year after the larger 2024 refresh. Its basic design and core trail hardware carry over.
What is the biggest difference between the 2025 and 2024 Jeep Wrangler?
The biggest difference is that power windows and power door locks are standard across the entire 2025 Wrangler lineup. The year also brings two limited-run 4xe trims and several trim departures.
Does the 2025 Jeep Wrangler still have a V8 model?
Yes. The 2025 Rubicon 392 Final Edition remains in the lineup with a 6.4-liter HEMI V8, full-time four-wheel drive, locking front and rear differentials, and an electronic front sway-bar disconnect. The regular Rubicon 392 trim is dropped.
Which Jeep Wrangler trims are new for 2025?
The Backcountry 4xe and Willys ’41 4xe are new limited editions for 2025. The Backcountry blends Sahara-like comfort with steel bumpers, a forward-facing trail camera and household-style power outlets, while the Willys ’41 adds heritage styling and steel bumpers to the Willys 4xe formula.
Is the 2025 Jeep Wrangler worth considering over the 2024 model?
The 2025 is most compelling for shoppers who want standard power windows and locks on a lower trim or one of the new limited-run 4xe editions. Otherwise, it is a modest update with the Wrangler’s core design and trail hardware largely carried over from 2024.
