Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition: A Roaring Farewell to V8 Power
The Jeep brand is bidding a formidable farewell to one of its most potent iterations, the Wrangler Rubicon 392. The introduction of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition marks the end of an era for V8-powered off-roaders as automakers pivot towards different powertrain technologies.
A Closer Look at the Last-of-its-Kind Off-Roader
At first glance, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition stands out with exclusive hood and fender vent decals that signal this model's special status. It comes standard with bronze beadlock-capable wheels shod in robust BFGoodrich all-terrain tires, courtesy of the Xtreme 35 Tire Package now standard across all Wrangler Rubicon 392 models.
This final edition doesn't just rest on aesthetics; it boasts functional upgrades like a factory-installed Warn winch capable of handling up to 8,000 pounds and Mopar heavy-duty rock sliders designed for serious off-road enthusiasts. With a half-inch suspension lift over previous models, this vehicle achieves an impressive ground clearance of11.6 inches and can ford through water depths of up to 34.5 inches.
Luxury Meets Ruggedness Inside
Inside, occupants are greeted by Black Nappa leather seats adorned with Mayan Gold stitching and Tupelo accents—a combination unique to this final edition. Comfort meets utility with features such as a monogrammed shifter medallion, swing gate plaque commemorating the model's legacy, and practical additions like a fold-out swing gate table and an extensive toolkit from Mopar.
Performance That Leaves a Legacy
The heart of the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 remains unchanged in its swansong iteration—the class-exclusive 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8 engine delivering a thunderous 470 horsepower and equal torque pound-feet. This powerhouse enables acceleration from standstill to sixty miles per hour in just four-and-a-half seconds while maintaining exceptional off-road capabilities thanks to Selec-Trac full-time four-wheel drive system and Tru-Lok electronic locking differentials.
New owners will also appreciate upgraded frame rails, improved suspension geometry, high-performance shocks, and heavy-duty brakes—all contributing factors that make this vehicle not only quick but also incredibly durable when tackling rugged terrain.
Pricing & Availability
With production limited globally to just 3,700 units—of which only 3,300 are destined for U.S.—the exclusivity factor runs high for prospective buyers looking to own this piece of automotive history. Priced at $99,995 excluding destination charges, orders have already commenced with production set to begin shortly at Toledo Assembly Plant.
The Enduring Appeal Amidst Changing Tides
In an age where electrification is gaining momentum within the industry, there’s something undeniably nostalgic about saying goodbye to traditional V8 engines in vehicles like the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition. While we witness these powerful machines ride into their sunset years amidst stricter emissions standards and shifting consumer preferences toward sustainability—it's clear they leave behind a legacy characterized by raw power combined with unmatched off-road prowess that has long defined segments of American automotive culture.
