What’s the difference between the 2025 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and other Wrangler trim models?
When we talk about why the 2025 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon is built for off-road enthusiasts who want more, we’re essentially talking about its extreme off-roading gear. Compared to lesser trim models, the Rubicon is equipped to go further into the wilderness, crawling over bigger obstacles and maximizing your agility in a tight spot.
Extreme Rubicon Off-Roading Features
- 33-inch all-terrain tires: Get a grip on loose off-road surfaces, from dry sand to wet clay.
- Increased approach, breakover, and departure angles: Enjoy maximum clearance to get up and over obstacles like riverbanks and oversized rocks.
- Electronic sway bar disconnect: Improve both ground clearance and off-road agility!
- Beefed-up skid plates: Underbody skid plates protect the Rubicon’s sensitive mechanical parts from the elements.
- Rock-Trac 4x4: With its 4:1 low gear ratio, the Rubicon’s upgraded four-wheel-drive system delivers outstanding control and a best-in-class 100:1 crawl ratio. In other words, the Rubicon can boulder-hop like no other!
Will the 2025 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon be available with the Hurricane I6 engine?
We’ve all seen the Internet rumors (and perhaps some AI-perpetuated misinformation) that Jeep’s Hurricane inline-six would be an option for this year’s Wrangler Rubicon. Unfortunately for off-roading enthusiasts, this 500-horsepower engine isn’t actually available for Jeep’s most capable midsize SUV. As a kind of double whammy, the Rubicon 392 and its exclusive V8 engine have dropped out of the lineup for 2025.
Then again, the Wrangler Rubicon’s actual powertrain is nothing to sneeze at! With its familiar Pentastar V6 engine, the Rubicon remains the Wrangler’s most capable trim model, giving you the power you need to plow through the elements and more than enough torque to get up and over any objects in your path! For even more trail-friendly torque (not to mention improved fuel economy), you can add the optional turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four to your Rubicon.
You also get to choose between the standard six-speed manual and optional eight-speed automatic transmissions. The manual means greater driver control, especially when you need to maximize your torque output (say, when there’s a log in your path or you’re on a boulder-hopping vacation up north). With the optional automatic transmission, you’ll enjoy optimal ride quality. It’s a great option, especially if your Wrangler doubles as your everyday driver!
