Best Trim
We think the Rubicon is your best bet.
Starting around $48,950, the 2025 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon comes ready for the trails with a standard 3.6L V6 engine, Rock-Trac 4x4 system, and rugged 33-inch all-terrain tires. Inside, you'll find a large 12.3-inch touchscreen with Uconnect 5, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for easy connectivity.
You can also upgrade it with options like a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder, a powerful 6.4L V8 in the Rubicon 392, or a fuel-efficient 4xe plug-in hybrid setup. No matter the version, it delivers the kind of off-road toughness and reliability Jeep fans expect.
Looking for something more budget-friendly without missing out on great features? The Sport S model is a solid second choice, starting at about $37,690. It builds on the base Sport model by adding more comfort and tech—like a leather-wrapped steering wheel, Advanced Brake Assist, and Enhanced Adaptive Cruise Control. The Sport S also gives you multiple engine choices, including the 3.6L V6, a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder, or the 4xe plug-in hybrid, so you can pick what works best for your lifestyle.
