Jeep Wrangler Dimensions: Length, Width, Height, Cargo Space and Seats (2-Door and 4-Door)

A current Jeep Wrangler (the JL generation, 2018 on) 2-door is 166.8 inches long on a 96.8-inch wheelbase, and the 4-door is 188.4 inches long on a 118.4-inch wheelbase. Both are 73.9 inches wide and up to 73.6 inches tall. The 2-door seats four, the 4-door seats five, and the 4-door holds 31.7 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seat or 72.4 cubic feet with it folded.

Those figures come from Jeep’s 2026 and 2027 Wrangler specification sheets on Stellantis Media, which list the same exterior and interior dimensions for both model years. The Xtreme 35-inch tire package and the Moab 392 are the exceptions: they are 79.3 inches wide, 75.5 inches tall and about 4 inches longer. Jeep measures length with the spare tire on the tailgate, and all dimensions at curb weight on standard tires.

Jeep Wrangler dimensions at a glance

Source: Jeep’s 2027 Wrangler specifications on Stellantis Media. The 2026 sheet carries identical dimensions. The 2-door’s 21.6-inch shorter wheelbase is where almost all of the length difference comes from; the overhangs are the same on both bodies.

How long is a Jeep Wrangler?

A standard 2-door is 166.8 inches, or just under 14 feet. A standard 4-door is 188.4 inches, about 15 feet 8 inches. The Xtreme 35 package adds about 4 inches to either body: 170.9 inches on the 2-door and 192.5 inches on the 4-door, which is also the length of the Moab 392.

The spare tire is part of that figure. Jeep’s sheet says “includes spare tire,” so the body itself is shorter, and owners who fit a larger spare on an aftermarket carrier, or a rear tire carrier that sits farther back, add length. If you are measuring for a parking space, a trailer deck or a shipping container, measure from the front bumper to the back of the spare on your own Jeep.

For comparison, the Jeep Gladiator (JT), which shares the Wrangler’s front end, is 218.0 inches long on a 137.3-inch wheelbase, according to Jeep’s 2026 Gladiator specifications. That is about 30 inches longer than a Wrangler 4-door.

How wide and how tall is a Wrangler?

Every current Wrangler is 73.9 inches wide except the Xtreme 35 package and Moab 392, which are 79.3 inches wide because of their wider track (66.9 inches versus 62.9 inches on most trims) and flared fenders. The Rubicon on its standard tires sits in between, with a 64.4-inch track but the same 73.9-inch overall width.

The spec sheet does not say whether the width figure includes the side mirrors. If you need to clear a narrow gate, a garage door or a drive-through car wash, measure your own Jeep mirror to mirror. On a JL the mirrors are mounted on the doors, so taking the doors off changes the width and the mirror situation; our guide to removing Jeep Wrangler doors and the hard top covers the mirror rules that apply when the doors are off.

Standard height is up to 73.6 inches, and 75.5 inches with the Xtreme 35 package and Moab 392. The figure is measured at curb weight on factory tires, so a lift kit, bigger tires, a roof rack, a rooftop tent or a light bar all add to it. As rough arithmetic, a 2.5-inch lift plus 35-inch tires on a Sport (stock tires about 31.5 inches tall) adds around 4 inches, putting the roof near 78 inches, so measure before you try a parking garage with a low clearance bar.

Ground clearance and off-road angles by trim

Ground clearance and angles change more between trims than the body dimensions do, because they depend on tire size. Jeep’s figures for current models:

The 4-door’s breakover angle is always worse than the 2-door’s on the same tires, because its longer wheelbase makes it easier to hang up on a ridge. That is the practical cost of the extra cargo and rear legroom on tight trails.

Jeep Wrangler cargo space

Jeep’s current spec sheet gives cargo figures for the 4-door: 31.7 cubic feet behind the rear seat and 72.4 cubic feet with the rear seat folded, measured to the SAE standard. The opening is 47.9 inches at its widest and 41.1 inches at its narrowest, about 36 inches tall, and the cargo floor sits about 30 inches off the ground. The distance between the rear wheel wells inside the trim is 45.0 inches.

The 2-door is a different story. Jeep’s 2026 and 2027 sheets do not publish a separate 2-door cargo volume, and with the rear seat up there is only a short shelf between the seatback and the tailgate. Dealer listings for the 2-door typically show about 13 cubic feet with the seat up and about 32 cubic feet folded, so treat the 2-door as a two-seater with a big trunk if you carry real gear.

• Tailgate swing. The JL tailgate is side-hinged and swings out sideways with the spare tire on it. Leave room behind the Jeep in a garage or parking spot to open it fully.
• Width at the opening. With 41.1 inches at the narrowest point, a 48-inch-wide item has to go in on an angle or through the top on a soft-top or a hard top with the panels removed.
• Subwoofers and storage boxes. The space under the rear cargo floor and behind the seat is a common spot for audio and storage. Our Jeep Wrangler subwoofer box plans give the inside measurements that work.

The plug-in hybrid Wrangler 4xe is 4-door only. Stellantis says its battery pack sits under the second-row seat, which is why the rear seat cushion on the 4xe flips forward for access, and Stellantis’s launch materials say the 4xe keeps the same cargo volume as the gas 4-door. Our Wrangler 4xe problems guide covers what to check under that seat on a used one.

How many seats does a Jeep Wrangler have?

The 2-door seats four and the 4-door seats five. Jeep lists them as 2/2 and 2/3 front and rear. Interior space up front is the same in both, but the rear is not:

The 2-door’s rear hip room of 45.0 inches is why it is rated for two in the back, not three. Getting into the 2-door’s rear seat means folding and sliding a front seat forward, which is fine for kids and occasional adult passengers but tiresome for daily use. Rear-facing child seats fit more easily in the 4-door, which has 2.6 inches more rear legroom.

JL vs JK dimensions

The previous-generation Wrangler JK (2007 to 2018) is close in size to the JL. Published JK figures put its wheelbase slightly shorter than the JL’s on both the 2-door and the 4-door (the 4-door JK was sold as the Wrangler Unlimited), and its overall length a few inches shorter. The width is within about an inch. Stellantis no longer keeps JK spec sheets alongside the current ones, and published JK lengths vary depending on whether the spare tire is counted, so measure your own JK when an inch matters.

Two things that do not change between JK and JL matter more for fitment than length: the 5-on-5 wheel bolt pattern, covered in our Jeep Wrangler bolt pattern guide, and the basic 2-door versus 4-door split in towing and payload. Our Jeep Wrangler towing capacity chart lists the JK and JL ratings by door count. If you are shopping used, the Jeep Wrangler problems by year guide shows which model years to watch.

Weight, towing and fuel at a glance

Size and weight go together on the Wrangler. Jeep’s 2026 FAQ lists base curb weights of 4,005 to 4,422 pounds for the 2-door and 4,251 to 4,976 pounds for gas 4-door models, with gross vehicle weight ratings of 5,100 to 6,250 pounds depending on configuration. The Moab 392 4-door is 5,268 pounds on the spec sheet.

• Towing: 2,000 lb for the 2-door, 3,500 lb for the 4-door, and 5,000 lb for a 4-door Rubicon with the automatic, 4.10 axle and LT285/70R17 tires, per the 2027 spec sheet.
• Fuel tank: 17.5 gallons on the 2-door, 21.5 gallons on the 4-door.
• Turning circle: 32.7 feet curb to curb on the 2-door and 38.8 feet on the 4-door, a 6-foot difference that you feel in parking lots and on switchbacks.

Garage, parking and trailer fit

For a stock Wrangler, height is rarely the problem. At 73.6 inches it clears a common 7-foot (84-inch) residential garage door with about 10 inches to spare, and the Xtreme 35 package at 75.5 inches still leaves more than 8 inches. Lifts, larger tires, roof racks and rooftop tents eat that margin quickly, so measure the tallest point on your own Jeep after any upgrade.

Length is the tighter check in an older home garage. A 4-door at 188.4 inches is close to 16 feet, and you need extra room at the back to swing the tailgate and at the front to walk past. If you carry the Jeep on a trailer or flat-tow it behind an RV, use the length with the spare and the actual curb weight of your build, not the brochure figure. Accessories add weight and size too, from winches and steel bumpers to the gear in our list of Jeep Wrangler upgrades for winter driving.

When an exact number matters, measure your Jeep as it sits today. The spec sheet describes a stock Wrangler on stock tires at curb weight, and few Wranglers stay that way for long.
