Dubai, UAE – For off-road enthusiasts in the Middle East who crave soul-stirring, legendary off-road capability and a new level of on-road performance, the Jeep® brand has now launched the mighty V8-powered Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392.
In tandem with the launch, the brand kicked off #RewildYourself, a 360 campaign that will continue into 2022 with a 360-degree approach from digital to social media and on-ground activations across the Middle East region to support the iconic Wrangler nameplate.
“The first V8 Wrangler ever to be launched in the Middle East, this is also the quickest, most powerful and off-road capable Jeep Wrangler in the brand’s history,” says Marco Melani, Managing Director for American Brands at Stellantis Middle East. “Developed and tested extensively in the rugged desert and mountain landscapes of the region, the functional engine cooling hood scoop, factory lift and abundant power from the V8 on the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 allow you to “re-wild yourself”, whether you’re cresting a towering sand dune or rock crawling up a steep mountain slope.”
The Wrangler Rubicon 392 carries the 6.4-liter V8, rated at 470 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft (637 Nm) of torque. Mated to the crisp-shifting TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission and Selec-Trac full-time active transfer case, the powertrain rockets the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 4.5 seconds and the quarter mile in 13.0 seconds. Plus, this potent combination comes with a factory-backed warranty.
Away from the pavement, the Trail Rated® Wrangler Rubicon 392’s potent powertrain meshes with heavy-duty wide track Dana 44 axles, a 3.73 final drive ratio, transmission torque converter lockup control, a 2-inch (5 cm) lift and standard 33-inch tires on 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels.
The result is the most-capable Jeep Wrangler ever with 10.3 inches of ground clearance, improved suspension articulation and maneuverability, approach/breakover/departure angles of 44.5/22.6/37.5 degrees and the ability to traverse up to 32.5 inches (82.5 cm) of water.
Peak power, plenty of torque
The addition of the 6.4-liter (392 cubic inches) engine marks the first time in nearly 40 years a V-8 has been a factory option for the Wrangler. Tuned specifically for the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 and its functional hood scoop, the engine is rated at 470 hp and 470 lb.-ft. (637 Nm) of torque.
Critical to performance on-road and off, nearly 75 percent of the Wrangler Rubicon 392’s peak torque
is available just above engine idle speed. This delivers exciting performance, whether enabling a
4.5-second 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) time or crawling up steep grades.
Fuel Saver Technology with cylinder deactivation seamlessly shifts to smooth, high-fuel-economy
four-cylinder mode when engine loads are light, such as cruising on the highway. A tank-mounted
high-performance pump keeps the V-8 fueled under even the most demanding conditions. A functional hood scoop feeds the Wrangler Rubicon 392’s engine with cool, denser, outside air,
which leads to enhanced performance.
Jeep engineers ensured the Wrangler Rubicon 392’s V-8 gets fresh air, regardless of the terrain and weather. The Wrangler Rubicon 392’s Hydro-Guide™ air intake system includes a tri-level ducting system with a series of drains, including a one-way drain in the air box that separates water – up to
15 gallons (56 liters) per minute – away from the engine’s incoming air. This enables the Wrangler Rubicon 392 to traverse water up to 32.5 inches (82.5 cm) deep worry free, even if a bow wake washes over the hood.
Should the Wrangler Rubicon 392’s functional hood scoop become restricted by snow/mud/debris,
a secondary air path within the hood structure feeds the engine, making it possible for the Wrangler Rubicon 392 to reach top speed even with a fully blocked primary air path.
An active dual-mode exhaust is standard to deliver an exhilarating and unmistakable sound. The system engages automatically, opening valves in the exhaust system, under higher engine loads to reduce exhaust back pressure. The driver can also activate the system with the press of a button.
The dual-pipe performance exhaust system is finished off with unique quad exhaust tailpipes.
Geared for performance
A high-torque capacity TorqueFlite 8HP75 eight-speed automatic transmission delivers quick, crisp gear changes during both normal and performance driving conditions. This transmission also enables the driver to change gears via the new steering-wheel-mounted aluminum paddle shifters, a first for
the Jeep Wrangler.
The fully electronic, eight-speed automatic transmission features on-the-fly shift-map changing. The sophisticated transmission software relies on several input parameters to determine the appropriate driving conditions and adjusts shift pattern in response. The result is automatic shifting ideally attuned to the performance requirements of almost any driving demand.
The transmission’s gear ratios deliver the right response at the right time, from crawling over obstructions on the trail to smooth power delivery at highway speeds.
Paved road power that’s ready for the Rubicon
The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392’s drivetrain puts the power down to all four wheels, all the time.The heart of the driveline is a Selec-Trac full-time, active transfer case with a 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio. The transfer case has four driver-selectable modes: 4WD Auto/4WD High/Neutral/4WD Low.
This full-time two-speed transfer case is intuitive and allows the driver to set it and forget it, while constantly sending power to the front and rear wheels. The Selec-Trac transfer case also allows for Wrangler Rubicon 392 to be flat-towed.
Off road, the Wrangler Rubicon 392 delivers the legendary capability Jeep is renowned for.
This includes:
Off-Road Plus, with Sand and Rock modes: The push of a button maximizes the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392’s tractive capabilities. The modes adjust throttle, transmission shift points and traction control for peak performance on higher speed passes on sand terrain, as well as during low-speed rock crawling. The selection of Off-Road Plus mode also gives drivers the ability to lock the rear axle at high speeds while in “4WD High.”
Selec-Speed Control manages vehicle speed in “4WD Low” while traversing off-road terrain without requiring throttle or brake input. Selec-Speed Control is activated using a button on the dashboard and can be adjusted from 1-5 mph (1-8 km/h) simply by using the Electronic Range Select shift control.
The Wrangler Rubicon 392 masters low-speed downhill descents by using the 6.4-liter V-8’s engine braking, revised transmission torque converter lockup control and a 48:1 crawl ratio to manage vehicle speed without the driver needing to use the brake pedal.
Durable frame for the most powerful Wrangler ever
The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 chassis includes upgraded frame rails, front upper control arms and cast-iron steering knuckles to take full advantage of the Wrangler Rubicon 392’s power and torque. Heavy-duty brakes bring the Wrangler Rubicon 392 to a composed stop no matter the terrain.
The Wrangler Rubicon 392’s off-road prowess flows from its wide track, heavy-duty Dana 44 front
and rear axles with thicker axle tubes and Tru-Lok electronic locking differentials. An electronic front sway-bar disconnect maximizes suspension travel for the most-demanding off-road conditions.
Augmenting the Jeep Wrangler’s proven five-link front and rear suspension, the Wrangler Rubicon 392 comes with a 2-inch (5 cm) factory lift and is fitted with specially-tuned high-performance FOX aluminum monotube shocks to maximize handling and comfort.
Bronze identifies something special
The 2021 Jeep Rubicon 392 keeps to the original design theme of Wrangler with bold and functional cues, a wide stance and its recognizable trapezoidal wheel flares. The factory 2-inch (5 cm) lift adds to the vehicle’s character and presence.
The Wrangler Rubicon 392 carries Bronze accents to mark the most powerful Jeep Wrangler ever. Bronze traces “Rubicon” on the hood, covers the front and rear tow hooks and outline the FOX Shocks’ decal, the Jeep badge and the Trail Rated badge. A 40-mm raised hood with aggressive appearance, and a fully functional hood scoop provides cold air to the engine and enables greater water fording capability. It also carries a “392” badge on each side, signifying the engine displacement in cubic inches; the largest ever offered in a Jeep Wrangler.
The leather-appointed interior includes unique Bronze stitching. The leather seats with Rubicon 392 branding keep drivers comfortable with performance-inspired, integrated upper bolsters to hold occupants in place. To accommodate new engine specs, the gauge cluster receives all-new numbering and design. Available on the Jeep Wrangler for the first time, the leather-wrapped, performance steering wheel features wheel-mounted paddle shifters for fast access to the eight-speed transmission and management of 470 lb.-ft. (637 Nm) of torque.
The UConnect system projects on a, Android Auto & Apple Car Play enabled, 8.4-inch screen, fitted as standard to the Wrangler Rubicon 392. Loaded in the software, Jeep’s Off-Road Pages allow owners to monitor pitch, roll, altitude, GPS coordinates, drivetrain power distribution and more.
The 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is available in nine exterior colors: Black, Bright White, Firecracker Red, Granite Crystal Metallic, Sarge Green Metallic, Snazzberry Metallic, Sting-Gray Metallic, Hydro Blue Pearl Coat and Billet Silver Metallic, all with a Black interior.
