Engine & Performance Comparison
The 2021 Jeep Wrangler is a four-wheel-drive SUV with a variety of engines available. The V6 engine is standard, but one can opt for a turbocharged four-cylinder, a V6 with mild hybrid assistance, or the diesel V6 that debuted in 2020. The standard 3.6-litre V6 engine generates 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. There is also an option for a 6.4-litre V8 engine in the Wrangler Rubicon 392 trim, delivering 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. Therefore the Wrangler offers more engine choices, including diesel and hybrid options, pairing to an eight-speed automatic transmission.
On the other hand, the Ford Bronco comes in six trims based on their capabilities. The four-wheel-drive sole 2021 Bronco is available in two engines. The standard engine is a 2.3-litre turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder that produces 275 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque. The optional engine is a 2.7-litre EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V6 that generates 400 lb-ft torque with 310 horsepower. Both engines are available with a ten-speed automatic or a seven-speed manual.
Off-Road Capabilities & Drivetrain Differences
These two vehicles are kind of similar in that they both possess high ground clearance and off-road superiority. The Bronco is an off-roading beast with features such as Trail control for low-speed off-roading, all-season and mud-terrain tires for off-roading grip, the Sasquatch package with all the off-roading essentials that can be added to any Bronco model. The Sasquatch package has 17-inch wheels wrapped with 35-inch mud-terrain tires, excellent shock absorbers. This package, however, is only limited to an automatic transmission.
The Wrangler also possesses special off-road features. These include 33-inch tires suitable for all-terrain, steel skid plates, an off-road button, and the Tru-Lok electronic locking differentials. The maximal angle a vehicle can drive over without its wheelbase getting scraped, otherwise termed as the break-over angle, the Wrangler has an edge with 25.0 degrees over the Bronco’s 21.1. The standard Wrangler beats the Bronco in ground clearance. They both offer a similar range for tires, with Jeep having an additional mud-terrain for the Rubicon trim. The Wrangler is somehow shorter in its wheelbase of 96.8 inches than the Bronco’s 100.4 inches.
Interior Features & Dimensions Comparison
These two off-roaders have lots of similarities in terms of their interiors. The standard Wrangler’s interior is generally made up of cloth upholstery which can be upgraded to leather. The Bronco’s upholstery is either cloth or leather, depending on the model, and there is also marine-grade vinyl seating available. The two-door Wrangler and Bronco allow four occupants, while the four-door models of these two SUVs accommodate five. The Wrangler also has an upgradable 7-inch Uconnect system; the Bronco provides a standard 8-inch touchscreen. The Ford is slightly bigger in terms of exterior dimensions.
