The 2016 Jeep Wrangler can tow up to 3500 pounds with a tongue weight of 350 lbs and a torque of 266 lbs.-ft. @ 4,000 rpm. It has a payload capacity of 1,200 pounds and is powered by a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine producing 236 HP. The SUV is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission that allows for heavier loads. By adding a towing kit, higher trim levels like the Rubicon can tow up to 5,000 lbs. To prevent any damage from overheating while towing heavy loads, it may be beneficial to install an aftermarket transmission cooler to keep the transmission running optimally.
