The Charger Hemi and Challenger Hemi may be in the past, and the Durango Hemi may be in its final model-year, but Jeep just announced that it’s going to be selling 392-Hemi-powered Wranglers into the 2025 model year.
The Hemi is downrated a bit to 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque (from 485 hp), but it still moves the heavy Wrangler with alacrity, running 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds and the quarter mile in 13.0 seconds. The Wrangler 392 has a standard Warn winch, nearly a foot of ground clearance, nearly a yard of water crossing, heavy duty rock sliders, two-speed transfer case, full-time four wheel drive, heavy duty axles, and front sway-bar disconnect.
The 2025 Wrangler 392 Final Edition will continue much of the standard equipment of the 2024 Final Edition, which proved to be not quite so final. Ready the class action suits! But the 2024s will keep their triple-loop grille guard and Mopar/Jeep 83-piece tool kit.
Orders will open later this year, with production starting in the first quarter of 2025.
