[Find a Deal](#) × ## **Summary** The **2025 Jeep Wrangler** retains its legendary off-road prowess and undeniable cool factor, but remains a polarising choice on sealed roads. A new 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder adds more torque yet doesn’t transform the Wrangler’s road manners; it’s still noisy and flighty at highway speeds. Cabin technology is updated, though interior packaging flaws persist. For uncompromising off-road ability in a short-wheelbase SUV, it’s tough to beat—but everyday liveability continues to be overshadowed by rough edges and a steep price tag. ## **Pros & Cons** ### **Pros** - Punchy, newly introduced turbo-petrol engine - Timeless design and unstoppable off-road capabilities - Cabin technology improves with a bigger screen ### **Cons** - Relatively expensive compared to 4×4 rivals - Cramped footwell with no driver’s footrest - Still bouncy, noisy, and unwieldy on sealed roads ## **Specs** - **Body Style**: Short-wheelbase off-road SUV - **Platform**: Ladder-frame with solid axles (Wrangler JL) - **Launched**: 2023 facelift (Global) - **Local Arrival**: 2025 - **Engine(s)**: 2.0L turbo-petrol (200kW/400Nm, 8AT, part-time 4x4) ## Pricing ## Pricing Information Before on-road costs Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport S $75,950 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon (2-door) $82,950 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Overland $83,950 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon $89,450 Check [drive-away pricing](https://www.carexplore.com.au/drive-away-price-checker/) for real-time estimates based on your location.

[Find me a deal](#) × ## **Interior & Features** The revised Wrangler gains a **12.3-inch** Uconnect touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, plus a new Gorilla Glass windshield. Classic physical switchgear - like the transfer case lever and toggles for windows - remain. Upholstery in the Rubicon is premium Nappa leather, though the interior still feels cramped, especially around the driver’s left foot. The short-wheelbase cabin is cozy, and the second row is workable for short stints. Storage is minimal, and the side-hinged tailgate plus swing-up rear glass can be cumbersome. ## **Engine & Fuel Economy** Power is now from a **2.0-litre turbo-petrol four** (200kW/400Nm), replacing the old V6\. Matched to an eight-speed automatic, it yields a claimed 9.9L/100km, though we averaged **11.2L/100km** in mixed use. The part-time 4x4 system with 2H, 4A, 4H, and 4L modes remains, along with front and rear diff locks, plus an electronically disconnecting front sway bar for serious off-road tasks. ## **Image Gallery** ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-2.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-3.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-4.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-5.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-6.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-7.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon-8.jpg) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/01/2025-Jeep-Wrangler-Rubicon.jpg) 2025 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon ## **Expert Media Reviews** CarExpert – 2025 Jeep Wrangler + **Score:** 7.3 / 10 "The turbo-four brings fresh energy to Jeep’s off-road icon, but fundamental on-road flaws remain.

[Add the review here.](https://www.carexplore.com.au/add-a-review/) --- ## **Safety Rating** **Three-star ANCAP** (tested 2019, valid until December 2025). Adult occupant protection: 60%. Child occupant protection: 80%. Vulnerable road user: 49%. Safety assist: 51%. It’s a generational quirk that the Wrangler is built with off-road priorities in mind. Standard AEB, blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise, and side curtain airbags are new additions, but the vehicle’s structure remains limiting. | **Category** | **Score** | **Points** | | ----------------------------------- | --------- | ---------- | | **Adult Occupant Protection** | 60% | 23.0/38 | | **Child Occupant Protection** | 80% | 39.4/49 | | **Vulnerable Road User Protection** | 49% | 23.9/48 | | **Safety Assist** | 51% | 6.7/13 | --- ## **ECO Rating** No Green NCAP or official rating is available. Official combined fuel consumption is **9.9L/100km**. Real-world figure: \~**11.2L/100km**. --- ## **Reliability Rating** No new recalls for the 2025 Wrangler, but older bulletins exist. Jeep covers it with a **5-year/100,000km** warranty. Some owners note pedal/footwell complaints and high wind noise. Overall, the brand’s reliability track record is mixed, but many Wrangler die-hards love them for their pure off-road ability. --- ## **Cost of Ownership** Roadside assistance is available with each scheduled service. Intervals are **12 months or 12,000km**. Over five years, **capped-price servicing** totals **$1995** ($399 average). Not especially cheap given the Wrangler’s limited on-road refinement, but on par for a serious 4×4 with specialized hardware. --- ## **Buy Jeep Wrangler** ![CarExplore Logo](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2024/12/C--3-.png) If you're looking to buy a new or used Jeep Wrangler, **CarExplore** can help you find the perfect match.

A new turbo-four brings more torque and slightly better fuel economy, but the two-door Rubicon remains expensive, relatively noisy, and compromised on-road. It’s a pure delight for hardcore adventurers who truly want maximum capability in a short-wheelbase package, though for daily driving there are more refined, less punishing 4x4s at this price. Wrangler fans likely won’t mind, but casual buyers may balk at the trade-offs. --- [Explore Jeep Car Reviews, Models, and Expert InsightsDiscover the latest Jeep car reviews, model comparisons, and expert insights.
