2015 Jeep Wrangler fuel economy (EPA)
The EPA rates the 2015 Jeep Wrangler at 18 MPG combined. Every EPA test configuration is below, from the government's fuel-economy database.
City, highway and combined figures are in MPG (MPGe on electricity).
| Version | Engine | Transmission · drive | City | Hwy | Comb. | Fuel / yr | CO₂ g/mi |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wrangler 4WD | 3.6L 6-cylinder | 5-speed automatic · 4WD | 17MPG | 21MPG | 18MPG | $3,450 | 481 |

Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.

- Cold tire pressure
- Not a single number: the owner's manual refers to the tire and loading placard (driver's side B-pillar or rear edge of the driver's door), which lists the pressures for your exact tire size and load.
- Spare
- The sheet lists no spare; the manual describes a compact spare, a full-size spare and a tire service kit, depending on equipment, and says spares are for temporary emergency use.
- Lug nut torque
- 100 ft-lb (135 N·m), 1/2" x 20 thread, 19 mm socket
- Pressure monitor
- A tire pressure monitoring system warns when a tire is low.
Sizes and pressures vary by trim, wheel package and load: check the placard on your vehicle and the tire sidewall. Sizes from the manufacturer's specification sheet (2015 Jeep Wrangler Specifications, 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Specifications). Pressure and spare notes from the owner's manual.
2015 Jeep Wrangler maintenance schedule
The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.
A dot means the service is due at that mileage or after that many years, whichever comes first.
Additional Inspections
- Inspect the CV/Universal joints
- Inspect front suspension, tie rod ends, and replace if necessary
- Inspect the front and rear axle fluid
- Inspect the brake linings, replace as necessary
- Adjust parking brake on vehicles equipped with four wheel disc brakes
Additional Maintenance
- Replace air conditioning/cabin air filter

Once a month or before a long trip
- Check engine oil level
- Check windshield washer fluid level
- Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual wear or damage
- Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power steering and automatic transmission, and fill as needed
- Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Severe duty (all models)
- Change engine oil at 4,000 miles (6,500 km) if operated in a dusty and off-road environment or predominately at idle or very low engine RPM

Read for lake-effect country
Reading the 2015 Wrangler data for Great Lakes roads
From the Snowbelt east of Cleveland to the ridges of West Virginia and east Tennessee, this part of the country throws salt, snow and grade at every vehicle. Here is how the 2015 Jeep Wrangler specifications line up against all three.
Wheels, tires and freeze-thaw roads
The smallest 2015 factory size is P225/75R16, the largest P255/70R18. Each thaw in Michigan and Ohio opens new potholes, and a tall sidewall survives them best: the 16-inch fitment flexes over a sharp edge where a low-profile tire can pinch or bend its wheel. After a hard hit, look for a sidewall bubble.
Oil for a frozen-driveway start
Factory oil: SAE 5W-20, 6 qt per change with a filter. A Grand Rapids or Toledo January can leave an engine at single digits overnight, and at start-up the oil has to reach the top of the engine fast. The 5W part of the grade is its cold-flow rating, so keep it rather than going thicker for winter. Short trips that never fully warm the engine let moisture collect in the oil; a longer drive clears it.
Cranking power for a lake-effect morning
Rated battery output: 600 cold-cranking amps, measured at 0°F. A single-digit night in Traverse City or Fort Wayne cuts what the battery can deliver just as the stiff engine asks more of the starter. Past three winters, an October load test tells you more than the date sticker. Charging comes from a 160-amp alternator.
Traction for snowbelt hills and hollows
This model year offers four-wheel drive. In West Virginia, the payoff comes in the first hour of a storm, before plows reach side streets, and on boat ramps slick with algae where a two-wheel-drive tow vehicle can spin. Keep the system's limits in mind on ice: driven wheels add grip for going, not for stopping or turning.
Snow plowing is a listed condition
Snow plowing is named in this schedule as one of the uses that calls for earlier fluid service. Keeping a long driveway or a cottage lane open through a west Michigan winter is precisely the kind of work that line describes, so log plowing hours alongside towing.
Cold mornings and the tire-pressure light
Air pressure falls about 1 psi with each 10°F drop, so the swing from a gray, mild lake-effect afternoon to a clear, frigid morning can trip the warning light overnight. Set pressures cold, to the door-jamb placard. An underinflated tire is also easier to damage in a pothole, because the rim sits closer to the edge it hits. The schedule asks you to check pressures and look for unusual wear or damage.
Coolant through freeze and climb
Fluids table: OAT coolant (10-year/150,000-mile formula), 10.5 qt. Scheduled replacement comes at 10 years or 150,000 miles. Stick to that chemistry, since mixing coolant types can shorten their protective life. On a used Wrangler from West Virginia, ask whether the coolant was changed on time, and check the level in the overflow tank with the engine cold before you drive it.
When the schedule shortens oil changes
The schedule's severe-service oil interval is 4,000 miles, and heavy idling is one of the conditions behind it. Winter commuting in Detroit or Columbus traffic, with stop-and-go crawling and engines idled to clear snow, is exactly the use that brings the shorter figure into play.
Specifications are the manufacturer's; the weather and road context is ours. When a note here and the 2015 owner's manual disagree, follow the manual.
2015 Jeep Wrangler questions
How much oil does the 2015 Jeep Wrangler take?
With a filter change: 3.6L engine, 6 qt / 5.6 L. Capacities are from the owner's manual; check the dipstick or oil-life display after filling.
What kind of oil does the 2015 Jeep Wrangler use?
Engine oil: API Certified SAE 5W-20 (MS-6395).
When is the first scheduled maintenance on the 2015 Jeep Wrangler?
At 20,000 miles or 2 years: inspect the cv/universal joints; inspect front suspension, tie rod ends, and replace if necessary; inspect the front and rear axle fluid; inspect the brake linings, replace as necessary; adjust parking brake on vehicles equipped with four wheel disc brakes; replace air conditioning/cabin air filter. Oil changes in between follow the oil-change indicator.
Where can I find the 2015 Jeep Wrangler owner's manual?
