2013 Jeep Wrangler‎


The two-door 2013 Jeep Wrangler and four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited seat four and five people, respectively. A 3.6-liter V6 engine, six-speed manual transmission and four-wheel drive come standard on all models. A five-speed automatic transmission is optional. A number of trims are available, ranging from the base Wrangler Sport to the Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. For 2013, all Wrangler models get new front and rear seats with larger side bolsters, as well as a standard auto-dimming rearview mirror. A new premium soft top is available to help reduce wind noise, and the Wrangler Unlimited also gets a new soft top design, which Jeep says is easier to raise and lower.


The 3.6-liter V6 in the 2013 Jeep Wrangler is truly a revelation. Featuring alloy construction, the 60-degree V6 is lighter and more compact than the previous 3.8-liter found in the 2011 Wrangler. And, with 285 horsepower, the perceived need for a V8 is all but eliminated. With that, we continue to wish that Jeep would make available the diesel sold in many markets outside of the U.S. The diesel's superior torque, along with an increase in fuel economy, would be all the new EPA regulations – and Jeep consumers – might ask for.

3.6 liter V6
285 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
260 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4,800 rpm
EPA city/highway fuel economy: 17/21 mpg (Wrangler), 16/20 mpg (Wrangler Unlimited, automatic), 16/21 mpg (Wrangler Unlimited, manual)


Inside the new 2013 Wrangler, you’ll enjoy ample storage space plus, thoughtfully designed ergonomics and improved Noise, Vibration, Harshness (NVH). You’ll also get comfort and convenience features including: new leather-trimmed heated front seats (available on Sahara and Rubicon) illuminated cup holders, lighting in the foot well and a new auto-dimming rearview mirror with integrated LED map lights.
