Powertrain Options and Availability
Wranglers were equipped with either a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, developing 120 horsepower, or a 4.0-liter inline 6-cylinder that produced 181 horsepower. Either a 5-speed manual or optional 3-speed automatic transmission might be installed. All Wranglers had Command-Trac 4-wheel drive. Engine improvements to the six added nine horsepower to 190. In '03 the original 4-cylinder was replaced by a 2.4-liter dual-cam unit from Jeep's Liberty. Also, the available 3-speed automatic was replaced by a 4-speed on both engines. In '05, Wrangler got a 6-speed manual transmission.
