Saying goodbye is hard. And the past year has been gut wrenching with the demise of the Hemi V-8 engine from the Stellantis lineup. First the muscle cars, then the Dodge Durango Hellcat, then the Ram 1500 all said adieu to this stalwart engine. Now, we have another sad farewell: Say goodbye to the Jeep Wrangler 392.
Jeep recently announced the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 Final Edition. Insert sad trombone.
What’s the Jeep Wrangler 392?
In case you missed it, the Jeep Wrangler 392 was unveiled in 2020 and brought a lot of joy during some dark times. Equipped with a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8, this compact off-roader delivers 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. Not that anyone was setting track speed records in this vehicle, but for giggles, Jeep timed the 0-to-60-MPH trek at 4.5 seconds.
With trail-rated capability, this is a remarkably unusual vehicle in its class.
The Final Edition
As a part of the last year of production, the Jeep Wrangle 392 will get a Final Edition with special trimmings and even more capability.
For starters, the Final Edition will get a standard 8,000-pound Warn winch and a half-inch lift kit that delivers 11.6 inches of ground clearance and 34.5 inches of water fording. This model will also get an 83-piece tool kit and heavy-duty rock sliders.
For 2024, the Xtreme 35 Tire Package is standard and features beadlock-capable wheels and 35-inch BFGoodrich all-terrain tires.
In addition to unique Final Edition hood and front fender vent decals, this model will also get a Mopar triple loop grille guard, black Nappa leather seats, Mayan gold accent stitching and a special shifter medallion and swing gate plaque.
The price for the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 Final Edition will be $101,890, including destination.
The bottom line
Jeep is limited production of the Jeep Wrangler 392 Final Edition to 3,700 units globally – not just in the U.S. So, if you want one, get one fast. Even with the $100k+ price tag, we imagine these vehicles will be future collectibles and will sell out.
This is a nice last hurrah for the Wrangler 392 and the Hemi V-8. We’re still sad to see it go.
