2021 Jeep Wrangler Towing Capacity

If you’re interested in the new 2021 Jeep Wrangler, you’re probably taken with its on- and off-roading prowess. But, how much can a Jeep Wrangler tow? Depending on the configuration you choose, your Jeep Wrangler towing capacity will range from 2,000 pounds to 3,500 pounds. However, no matter which Wrangler configuration Rogers drivers select, they’ll be able to tow with confidence thanks to Jeep 4×4 technology and a number of additional towing features.

How Much Can the Jeep Wrangler Tow?

As previously mentioned, the 2021 Wrangler towing capacity can reach 3,500 pounds. Although, if you want to reach that maximum to haul heavy cargo throughout Coon Rapids, you’ll want to know what each Wrangler trim can deliver. Here are some things to consider: 

• 2-door Jeep Wrangler models can tow up to 2,000 pounds, 4-door models can tow up to 3,500 pounds.
• Most trim levels are available in either 2-door or 4-door configurations, but the Sport Altitude, Sahara, and Sahara Altitude trims are only available as 4-door SUVs. In turn, these trims can always tow up to 3,500 pounds. 
• While most of the 2020 Jeep Wrangler configurations have been brought back in 2021, the Wrangler lineup has received some exciting new color choices this year. 

Wrangler Towing Capacity: 4×4 Systems Best Suited for Towing

• Selec-Trac® 4×4: Uses two-wheel drive when driving over clear Anoka roads, but it switches to 4×4 when road conditions change.
• Rock-Trac® 4×4: Implements a 4:1 low gear ratio, Tru-Lok® electronic-locking differentials, and electronic front sway bar disconnect to provide excellent off-road performance. 

• Command-Trac® 4×4: The preferred option for towing, this system allows you to select a neutral option for towing on flat surfaces. It also features a 2.72:1 low gear ratio when you’re tackling tough terrain. 

If you’d prefer more towing power, but you still want access to unbeatable Jeep off-roading capabilities, you’ll want to consider the new Jeep Gladiator.
