All figures in pounds, from the Stellantis Media 2025 Jeep Wrangler Specifications (2025_JP_Wrangler_SP.pdf, spec id 26154). Hitch: The 5,000 lb maximum applies only to the 4-door Rubicon with the 2.0L turbo, eight-speed automatic, 4.10 axle and LT285/70R17C tires (9,950 lb GCWR); all other 4-door models are rated 3,500 lb and 2-door models 2,000 lb.. Ratings assume a properly equipped vehicle and a trailer with brakes where required by the manufacturer.

How to read these numbers

Towing capacity is the manufacturer's maximum trailer weight for a lightly loaded truck. In practice payload runs out first: every passenger, every item in the bed, and the trailer's tongue weight (typically 10 to 15 percent of trailer weight) count against the 1,328 lb payload and the GVWR of your configuration.

GCWR is the combined ceiling for truck and trailer together. Subtracting your loaded truck weight from GCWR gives the real trailer weight you can pull, which is often lower than the headline towing figure.

Full explanations: GVWR vs GCWR vs payload and how tongue weight eats payload.

Frequently asked questions

How much can a 2025 Jeep Wrangler tow?

Up to 5,000 lb when properly equipped. The lowest-rated configuration listed (2-door (all engines), 3.6L V6 or 2.0L turbo, 4x4) is rated at 2,000 lb, and the highest (Rubicon 4-door, 2.0L turbo I4, 270 hp, 4x4) at 5,000 lb.

What is the payload capacity of a 2025 Jeep Wrangler?

Maximum payload is 1,328 lb. Payload includes passengers, cargo and the trailer's tongue weight, so it is usually the limit you reach first. Jeep does not publish a GVWR for this model, so use the certification label in the driver's door jamb.

Does the 2025 Jeep Wrangler need a tow package to reach its maximum rating?

The 5,000 lb maximum applies only to the 4-door Rubicon with the 2.0L turbo, eight-speed automatic, 4.10 axle and LT285/70R17C tires (9,950 lb GCWR); all other 4-door models are rated 3,500 lb and 2-door models 2,000 lb.. Configurations without the package carry a lower rating; see the note column in the table above.

Can a 2025 Jeep Wrangler tow a travel trailer?

A configuration rated at 5,000 lb can handle a trailer with a loaded weight of roughly 4,000 lb while keeping a 20% safety margin, provided passengers, cargo and tongue weight stay within the 1,328 lb payload. Run your exact numbers in the towing calculator.
