The 2021 Jeep Wrangler and 2021 Ford Bronco are two iconic off-road-ready vehicles. Both have excellent 4x4 drivetrains, heavy-duty shocks and suspension systems, and multiple engines. For those who want the extra torque and fuel efficiency of a diesel, however, one of the pair stands out.Â

Jeep Wrangler
Base Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6 Base Horsepower: 285 Diesel Engine: 3.0L V6 Diesel Torque: 442 lb.-ft
Ford BroncoÂ

With a more muscular base engine and a diesel offering, the Jeep stands out in this comparison. The 3.0L is available on all Unlimited (four-door) models. It comes with an eight-speed automatic transmission and can pull up to 1,588 kg, while providing excellent fuel efficiency (9.8 L/100 km combined). In addition, the Wrangler can match the Ford's turbocharged option with a 2.0L I-4, which equals the Bronco's 270 hp.Â
