Jeep® has triumphed at the 2025 News UK Motor Awards, with Wrangler being named The Sun Road trip Car of the Year. This win is notable, as Wrangler is the first car to win this brand-new category that reflects the growing appetite among drivers for hitting the road and creating new adventures, core values that remain at the heart of Jeep.

Wrangler won the award for its ability to defy limits and fulfill the road-trip dreams of those seeking adventures around the world. Its versatility and ability to provide true open-air freedom, with its removeable roof and doors, set it apart and make it the ideal car to make unforgettable memories with.

Wrangler has cemented itself as the benchmark for the off-road capabilities and ruggedness that are inherent to Jeep. Blending style with practicality, Wrangler adapts to the different needs of road trippers across the world. Unmatched off-road capability, removable doors and roof and a foldable windscreen make it the perfect car for exploring the world.

Wrangler also benefits from the latest Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Uconnect infotainment system, making road trips comfortable and enjoyable.

Kristian Cholmondeley, MD of Jeep UK said, “At Jeep we encourage everyone to get out and explore the world around them with friends and loved ones. Wrangler has the style and capability to undertake any adventure. There’s no better way to live out our motto of ‘Go Anywhere, Do Anything’ than by hitting the road and seeking the freedom that doing so provides - this award proves that.”

Rob Gill, Motoring Editor of The Sun, said “Nothing is off-limits in the all-American hero, and you can whip off the roof and the doors while you’re at it. Wrangler is the perfect companion for unforgettable adventures on the road trip you always promised yourself.”

Launched in 2018, The News UK Motor Awards are judged by industry respected automotive journalists from across News UK’s titles. Categories honoured include Luxury, Sports, Family, Adventure and Electric.
