2026 Jeep Wrangler Specs

The Jeep Wrangler specs are unmatched and unforgettable. Honestly, who doesn't want to rule the road with open-air freedom, trail-ready fittings, and ample customization possibilities? For the 2026 model year, the Wrangler retains an appealing range of powertrain options and paint colors that look both rugged and elegant – including one that pays homage to the SUV's storied World War II roots.

We strongly recommend putting the Jeep Wrangler engine and transmission through their paces with a test drive at Tony T CDJR of Gulfgate, but before you book your favorite trim for a tour of the city, let's take a digital drive through the 2026 Jeep Wrangler towing capacities, dimensions, and ground clearance you'll encounter at our dealership.

Get Up Close & Personal With Jeep Wrangler Specs

It's no secret that the new Jeep Wrangler is the pinnacle of off-road freedom, but it's also an incredibly customizable SUV with more powertrain, rooftop, and door options than most sport-utes combined. Mixing and matching your favorite features is encouraged; here's a closer look at this year's offerings so you can find your favorites.

2026 Jeep Wrangler Engine Specs & Towing Capacities

• 3.6-liter V-6: Manual or automatic transmission compatible, 285 horsepower, 260 pound-feet of torque, 5,000-pound maximum towing capacity¹ on a four-door Rubicon model
• 2.0-liter Turbocharged Inline Four-Cylinder: Automatic transmission compatible, 270 horsepower, 295 pound-feet of torque, up to 5,000-pound maximum towing capacity¹ on a four-door Rubicon model
• 6.4-liter V-8: Class-exclusive engine,⁴ 470 horsepower, 470 pound-feet of torque, 3,500-pound towing capacity,¹ available in the Moab 392 trim only

Jeep Wrangler Transmission Options

Enthusiasts are in for a treat: the six-speed manual transmission has made a return this year, providing drivers with an immersive driving experience. However, some may prefer a less intensive experience, which can be had with the eight-speed automatic transmission.

To enjoy a standard manual Jeep Wrangler transmission, choose a Sport, Sport S, Willys, Rubicon, or Rubicon X trim. These V-6 variants can also be built as automatics, while Sahara, Willys '41, and Moab 392 models are automatic-only builds. Models equipped with the turbocharged four-cylinder are likewise only available with automatic transmissions.

2026 Jeep Wrangler MPG

Just like the variations in Jeep Wrangler towing capacity we highlighted above, Jeep Wrangler MPG changes slightly depending on the engine, transmission, and number of doors you choose.

• 3.6-liter V-6 Two-Door: EPA-estimated 17/23/19 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)⁵
• 3.6-liter V-6 Four-Door with Manual Transmission: EPA-estimated 16/22/18 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)²
• 2.0-liter Turbocharged Inline Four-Cylinder Two-Door: EPA-estimated 20/23/21 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)³
• 2.0-liter Turbocharged Inline Four-Cylinder Four-Door: EPA-estimated 20/22/21 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)⁶

The fuel economy values for the available 6.4-liter V-8 engine used in the Moab 392 are not divulged by the EPA at the time of this writing.

2026 Jeep Wrangler Ground Clearance

Big, bold, and ready for any trail, the Moab 392 holds the record for the family's highest standard Jeep Wrangler ground clearance at 11.1 inches. That puts nearly an entire foot of space between rocky terrain and your SUV's undercarriage skid plates.

Other 2026 Wrangler trims sit 9.7 inches off the trail, typically. If off-roading or overlanding is a regular weekend activity for you and yours, please contact us to figure out which Wrangler model best suits your needs.

2026 Jeep Wrangler Dimensions

Because you can build most trim levels of this trail-ready machine in two- or four-door configurations (except for the Moab 392 model, it's only available in a four-door configuration), Jeep Wrangler dimensions – particularly exterior length and rear legroom – can vary. The Moab 392 also has unique interior measurements as well.

• Two-Door: Seating for four, 31.7-cubic-foot maximum cargo capacity, 166.8 inches long by 73.9 inches wide
• Four-Door: Seating for five, 72.4-cubic-foot maximum cargo capacity, 188.4 inches long by 73.9 inches wide
• Four-Door Moab 392: Seating for five, 67.4-cubic-foot maximum cargo capacity, 188.4 inches long by 73.9 inches wide

In all but the top-tier Moab 392 model, two-door setups also come with up to 41.2 inches of front legroom and 35.7 inches of rear legroom, while four-door configurations have matching front leg space but an extra 2.6 inches in the back to fit kids or car seats.
