Jeep is adding another level to its plug-in hybrid lineup with the introduction of the 2025 Wrangler 4xe Backcountry. Built off the Wrangler 4xe Sahara’s platform , the Backcountry keeps the same plug-in hybrid powertrain that produces 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque.

Jeep has introduced the 2025 Wrangler 4xe Backcountry, a limited-edition model designed to enhance the off-road capabilities of the Wrangler 4xe Sahara while adding premium tech and convenience features. Production for the model is limited to 5,800 units for North America.

Despite the recent struggles of its parent company, no one can argue the Jeep Wrangler is synonymous with healthy off-road chops. For 2025, a new Backcountry package seeks to up the ante on the comfort-focused Sahara 4xe trim.
