Earlier this year, Jeep reassured enthusiasts that the V-8-powered Wrangler wasn’t going to die. CEO Bob Broderdorf said that the 6.4-liter Hemi would "have a home" at the brand after 2025, and we now know what that looks like. Jeep is launching a limited-edition Wrangler Moab 392 for 2026, keeping the popular engine option alive for at least another year.
The 6.4-liter V-8 engine continues to produce the same 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque as before, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. "Our community made their voices heard, and we listened," said Broderdorf. "The 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 will remain a defining force within the Jeep lineup."
The SUV comes with 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels, a 4.56 axle ratio, and a 2.72:1 Selec-Track full-time transfer case. It also has a two-mode exhaust system and a cold-air intake with a water separator.
The 2026 Moab 392 features a body-color hardtop, rock rails, color-matched fender flares, and black tow hooks. Inside, the Moab 392 features heated black Nappa leather-trimmed seats, a "premium" Alpine audio system, and a 12.3-inch infotainment display.

Optional equipment includes a Sky One-Touch powertop, an 8,000-pound WARN winch, and all-weather floor mats. The one pictured here features the brand’s new deep-purple Reign color, one of several new limited-edition exterior colors. Others include Goldilocks, Joose, Earl Grey, and Tuscadero.
One new feature on every Wrangler, including the 392, is Jeep’s new "enhanced door hinge system." It's supposed to quicken the door removal process.
The limited-edition Wrangler will start at $81,990 (including the $1,995 destination charge). Believe it or not, that is $20,000 cheaper than the 2025 Wrangler 392, which started at $101,990. The order books are open now for the 392, with production expected to begin in the coming weeks.
The Moab 329 is the first of 12 limited-run Wranglers that Jeep is launching, which kicks off the brand’s 85th anniversary celebration. The next limited-edition Wrangler drops on December 12.
