2026 Jeep Wrangler Pricing by Trim
The 2026 Wrangler is offered in seven main trims across two-door and four-door body styles, so you can match capability and budget without paying for hardware you won’t use. Starting prices below include destination.
| Trim | Body Styles | Starting MSRP (2-Door) | Starting MSRP (4-Door) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sport | 2-door & 4-door | $36,890 MSRP | $40,095 MSRP |
| Sport S | 2-door & 4-door | $41,235 MSRP | $43,090 MSRP |
| Willys | 2-door & 4-door | $44,710 MSRP | $46,495 MSRP |
| Sahara | 4-door only | — | $50,890 MSRP |
| Rubicon | 2-door & 4-door | $47,965 MSRP | $51,890 MSRP |

| Moab 392 | 4-door only | — | $81,990 MSRP |
The Moab 392 is the V8 flagship and a limited-edition model in Jeep’s Twelve 4 Twelve series, so availability is limited — if a factory V8 Wrangler is the goal, it’s worth acting early or placing a custom factory order.

2026 Jeep Wrangler Engine Options
Every 2026 Wrangler is gas-powered — the Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid was discontinued after the 2025 model year. The lineup runs on three proven engines:
| Engine | Horsepower / Torque | Transmission |
|---|---|---|
| 3.6L Pentastar V6 | 285 hp / 260 lb-ft | 6-speed manual standard; 8-speed automatic available |
| 2.0L Turbocharged I4 | 270 hp / 295 lb-ft | 8-speed automatic |
| 6.4L HEMI V8 (Moab 392) | 470 hp / 470 lb-ft | 8-speed automatic |
The V6 is the only engine offered with a six-speed manual, which remains a favorite among off-road purists for the direct control it gives over power delivery on technical climbs. The turbo four adds low-end torque and pairs exclusively with the eight-speed automatic, and the 6.4L HEMI V8 is reserved for the range-topping Moab 392.
Wrangler 4×4 Systems and Off-Road Capability
Capability is trim-specific, and knowing which system underpins each Wrangler is the key to buying the right one:
- Command-Trac (part-time) — Sport, Sport S, Willys, Sahara
- Rock-Trac with 4:1 low range — Rubicon
- Rock-Trac with full-time 4:1 transfer case — Rubicon X
- Selec-Trac (full-time, 2.72:1) — Moab 392
Every 2026 Wrangler wears the Trail Rated® badge and includes fuel-tank, transfer-case, and transmission skid plates plus front tow hooks. Step up to the Rubicon and you add 33-inch all-terrain tires, a heavy-duty full-float Dana 44 rear axle, electronic front and rear locking differentials, and an electronic sway-bar disconnect for maximum wheel articulation over rock. Jeep’s published 2026 off-road figures include up to 12.9 inches of ground clearance and up to 35 inches of water fording when properly equipped.
2026 Jeep Wrangler Towing Capacity
Tow ratings depend on body style and equipment. The maximum applies to a properly equipped four-door Rubicon or Rubicon X.
| Configuration | Maximum Towing |
|---|---|
| Two-door (properly equipped) | Up to 2,000 lbs |
| Four-door, most trims (properly equipped) | Up to 3,500 lbs |
| Four-door Rubicon / Rubicon X (8-speed auto, 4.10 axle, HD full-float rear axle) | Up to 5,000 lbs |
Maximum towing and payload capacity figures are based on properly equipped vehicles and vary by configuration. Do not exceed any weight rating. See your owner’s manual and the vehicle’s door-jamb label for specific capacities.
Common Questions About the 2026 Jeep Wrangler
What is the warranty on a new Jeep Wrangler?
Every new Wrangler is backed by Jeep’s factory coverage: a 3-year/36,000-mile basic (bumper-to-bumper) warranty, a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, and 5-year/60,000-mile roadside assistance. Joshua Tree CDJR also backs every new vehicle with its High Desert Promise, including Lifetime Powertrain Protection. Coverage terms per Mopar / Jeep factory warranty (mopar.com).
Can the Wrangler be flat-towed behind a motorhome?
Yes. The Wrangler’s two-speed transfer case has a true neutral position, so it can be flat-towed (all four wheels down) behind an RV without a tow dolly — one reason it’s among the most popular flat-tow vehicles on the market.
Does the 2026 Wrangler still offer a manual transmission?
Yes. The six-speed manual is standard on Wranglers equipped with the 3.6L Pentastar V6. The 2.0L turbo and 6.4L V8 come only with the eight-speed automatic.
How does the Wrangler drive on the highway?
Its body-on-frame construction and solid axles prioritize durability and off-road articulation, so it rides firmer than a unibody crossover. Modern refinements and a standard 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen make daily driving comfortable.
