2025 Jeep Wrangler vs. Ford Bronco
Compare Features & Specs
Overview
If you're looking for a rugged, off-road-capable SUV, the 2025 Jeep Wrangler and the 2025 Ford Bronco both offer impressive features. But which one is the better option for your next adventure? At Acadiana Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram Fiat in Lafayette, Louisiana, we’ve put these two icons to the test to help you make an informed decision. Explore the details below to see how the 2025 Jeep Wrangler stacks up against the 2025 Ford Bronco in terms of style, capability, and interior accommodations.
Exterior and Design
The 2025 Jeep Wrangler offers several trims, including the Sport, Sport S, Willys, Sahara, Rubicon, Rubicon X, and Rubicon 392. This variety ensures there's a Wrangler that fits any driving style, whether you want a simple setup to customize or the ultimate off-road experience with the Rubicon variants. These trims hold up in the toughest conditions with features like 35-inch off-road tires, rock rails, and reinforced bumpers. Jeep’s legendary versatility shows with 2 or 4-door options, removable doors and roof options, as well as the Sky One-Touch power top, while limited edition options like the military-inspired Willys ’41, Joose and Mojito color options, add a touch of individuality.
In comparison, the 2025 Ford Bronco’s trims include Base, Big Bend, Heritage Edition, Outer Banks, Badlands®, Stroppe Edition®, and Raptor. The Bronco's exterior features slightly smaller wheels than the Wrangler, giving the Jeep a more aggressive and commanding stance, while its off-road trims—specifically the Badlands and Raptor—also are powerfully equipped for harsh terrain. The Raptor boasts 37-inch tires and a unique heavy-duty modular front bumper, for instance, but Bronco is known more for its modern style and recognizable Heritage Edition. If it’s stand-out ruggedness and strong characteristics you’re after, the Wrangler makes its mark.
Technology and Interior
Inside the 2025 Jeep Wrangler, the focus is on comfort, convenience, durability, and modern technology. The Wrangler interior options suit every adventurer, from waterproof surfaces and interior drain valves, to lavish leather upholstery and heated, ventilated front seats that promise personalized comfort. Great rear-seat legroom in 4-door models and 12-way power front seats are the cherry on top. The Wrangler and its large 12.3-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV touchscreen with navigation, combined with the Alpine Premium Sound System, elevates the driving experience with crystal-clear audio and seamless connectivity.?This system brings exclusive features that the Ford Bronco’s system cannot, including Wi-Fi® hotspot for up to 8 devices in a 50-ft. radius, segment-exclusive trail guides, GPS Trail Logs, and more from Trails Offroad™.
Bronco also features rubberized flooring with drain plugs and easy-clean materials, and leather trim in higher models, but does not offer heated and ventilated seats. The Bronco's seats are more basic, with 6-way manual adjustments for both the driver and passenger. While the Bronco does include a 12-inch touchscreen SYNC® 4 infotainment system with wireless smartphone integration, it doesn't offer the same level of premium features as the Wrangler, tailored especially for off-road enthusiasts.
Power and Performance
Engine choices for the Wrangler are also diverse, with options including a 2.0L turbocharged I4 with 270 hp and 295 lbs.-ft. of torque, a 285 hp 3.6L Pentastar® V6, a 6.4L HEMI® V8 boasting 470 hp matched by 470 lbs.-ft. of torque, and a hybrid 4xe powertrain with a 370-mile range.
The Bronco offers fewer engine options, with a 300 hp 2.3L EcoBoost® 4-cylinder, a 2.7L twin-turbo V6, and a 3.0L High-Output EcoBoost® V6. While these engines are capable, the top-tier High-Output V6 maxes out at 418 hp and 440 lbs.-ft. of torque. Without the raw V8 power available in the Rubicon 392’s 470 hp and 470 lbs.-ft. of torque, the Bronco simply is not as strong. This strength translates to the Wrangler and its 5,000-lb. towing capacity when properly equipped, compared to the Bronco’s 4,500-lb. capacity. The Wrangler and its prowess in off-road categories, compounded by the Jeep renowned Command-Trac® and heavy-duty Rock-Trac® 4x4 systems, makes Jeep continue to lead the pack.
When comparing the 2025 Jeep Wrangler to the 2025 Ford Bronco, the Wrangler has a robust performance, cutting-edge tech that speaks to the adventurous, and lavish but practical interiors that give it a distinct edge for those looking for the ultimate off-road experience without sacrificing comfort or technology.
