In the ’90s, the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler were the ultimate off-road rivals, captivating adventure seekers with their tough looks and go-anywhere attitude. The Wrangler has a reputation for its off-road capabilities, but things are heating up with the 2025 Bronco’s new features and tech. The team at Columbine Ford couldn’t resist diving into this epic showdown. We’ve compared these two off-road beasts head-to-head, looking at everything from their off-road skills and interior comfort to their tech and performance. Keep reading to find out how the 2025 Ford Bronco stacks up against the Jeep Wrangler. Let’s see who’s got the edge in the battle for off-road supremacy!
The 2025 Ford Bronco is a powerhouse, offering a range of engines to suit every adventure. The Bronco has you covered, from the turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder for daily driving to the twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6 for serious off-roading. The powerful twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 delivers a staggering 455 horsepower for those seeking ultimate performance. Beyond raw power, the Bronco excels on and off the road. Its body-on-frame design and advanced G.O.A.T. Modes make it a capable off-roader, while its refined on-road manners ensure a comfortable ride. Whether tackling rugged trails or cruising city streets, the 2025 Ford Bronco is ready to take you anywhere.
The Wrangler offers a variety of engine options, from a classic V6 to a powerful V8 and even a hybrid. You can get a classic V6 with a 6-speed manual transmission for a more hands-on driving experience. You can also choose a turbocharged 4-cylinder, a PHEV 4-cylinder, or a powerful V8 with an 8-speed automatic transmission. While the Bronco’s V6 is stronger, the Wrangler’s legendary 4WD system is unbeatable off-road. However, when it comes to on-road comfort and refinement, the Wrangler falls short compared to the Bronco. The steering can feel loose and requires constant correction, especially on the highway.
The 2025 Ford Bronco is packed with tech and features. It has a 12.0-inch digital gauge cluster with excellent graphics and a massive 13.2-inch touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make it easy to connect your phone. For music lovers, there’s a great B&O sound system. The Bronco is also practical. It has plenty of storage space, including the fantastic MOLLE panel system to organize your gear. And when you need to haul stuff, the Bronco has more cargo space than the Wrangler, offering 35.6 cubic feet of storage behind the second-row seat compared to the Wrangler’s 31.7 cubic feet. With the rear seats folded down, the Bronco provides a generous 77.6 cubic feet of space, surpassing the Wrangler’s 72.4 cubic feet and reinforcing its versatility for both on- and off-road journeys.
The Wrangler has also been much less advanced than the Bronco. While it does have a decent 12.3-inch screen, it still falls short of the Bronco’s massive 13.2-inch screen. Like its competitor, the Wrangler offers wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration, providing convenient access to smartphone features. It is noisy inside, especially in lower trim levels. Cargo space remains a challenge for the Wrangler, particularly in comparison to the Bronco. With just 31.7 cubic feet of cargo room behind the second-row seat, it offers four cubic feet less than the Bronco’s 35.6 cubic feet. When the rear seats are folded, total cargo capacity expands to 72.4 cubic feet, still trailing behind the Bronco’s 77.6 cubic feet, which can be a drawback for road trips or hauling gear.
The 2025 Ford Bronco perfectly blends off-road toughness and everyday comfort. It’s great for weekend adventures and weekday commutes.
