An Overview of the Available Engines in the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

Going into the new year, Jeep provided its flagship model with even more ingenuity. A total of four engine options are now available to the 2021 Jeep Wrangler. With exception to the 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe and the Jeep Wrangler 392 Rubicon models – which offer their own unique engines – what engines can be equipped to standard Wrangler models? Palmen Motors provides an overview of all four engines available.

Two Unique High-Performance Engines for the 2021 Jeep Wrangler

2.0L Turbo Engine	2021 Jeep Wrangler Engine Options	3.0L EcoDiesel Engine
270	Horsepower	260
295 ft-lbs	Torque	442 ft-lbs
21 City / 24 Highway MPG	Estimated Fuel Economy	22 City / 29 Highway MPG
3,500 lbs	Towing Capacity	3,500 lbs

Two of the total four powertrains for the 2021 Jeep Wrangler model act as key highlights. Both the 2.0L Turbo and 3.0-liter EcoDiesel engine comes on special edition trims or unique models. Models such as the 80^th Anniversary trim receive the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine for added power off-road. Meanwhile, the 3.0L EcoDiesel engine provides the highest available fuel economy in the model. However, it still retains the off-road performance and 3,500 lbs of towing capacity as other models.

3.6L Pentastar® V6

285 Horsepower
260 ft-lbs of Torque

eTorque or Engine Start-Stop Technology Option

Beyond the typical engine options seen above, the 2021 Jeep Wrangler will also come with the legendary Pentastar® V6 engine. The powertrain receives a massive boost as a mild-hybrid system with the addition of eTorque, which helps provide low-end torque and is great for rock crawling. Meanwhile, you can receive the engine instead with ESS technology. Engine Start/Stop capabilities help to provide the model with up to an estimated 23 Highway MPG to optimize fuel efficiency in the V6 engine.
