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 80th 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.
