2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 Anvil: Review, Specs & Price – We only just received the pricing of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, which was unveiled at the New York Auto Show earlier this year. The base prices of most trims increased only slightly, as is normal for a new model year. Rubicon 392 – the top-of-the-line model – saw a $5,100 increase. The Wrangler can be upgraded to a six-figure vehicle.
A fully-equipped 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392, costs exactly $102,520. This includes Jeep’s $1,795 mandatory destination fee, as well as a $775 RV-towing harness. Although technically an optional item, we understand it is not a practical one to improve your Rubicon’s driving experience. Without it, the price is still $101,745.
The 2024 model comes with more equipment as standard, including the Xtreme 35-inch tire package. The Xtreme package of 35-inch tires, the integrated front-off-road camera package, trailer-tow packages, and an upgraded windshield were previously optional. They are now included with the 392 models. These items amounted to $5,435 worth of optional extras in 2023.
The 2024 Rubicon 392, despite its size, is not the first Jeep Wrangler to reach six figures. Rubicon 392’s 20th Anniversary Edition took the honors in 2023. The basic package cost just under $90,000. However, adding the AEV Level II upgrade added an additional $20,135 to the sticker. The final cost is more than $110,000 based on basic math. However, Jeep’s 20th Anniversary Edition was only produced in 150 total units.
It’s easy, in the middle of all the talk about the outrageously expensive Wranglers that we forget to mention the fact that the popular off-roader can still be found at a much more affordable price. A two-door Sport model with an initial price of $33,690 is likely to be the least expensive Jeep Wrangler in 2024. This price gets you the white Jeep Wrangler with 17-inch standard wheels and a 3.6-liter engine that produces 285 horsepower. It is connected to a 6-speed manual transmission. The Jeep is a great way to see the world beyond. Inside, it still has a 12.3-inch touchscreen and some driver assistance systems.
Interior
Inside, the 2023 Jeep Wrangler is styled to complement its exterior. It’s impossible to mistake it for another vehicle (except the Gladiator) when you are inside. Exterior paint seeps into the pillars, and onto other interior parts. The tall upright position allows for a good view of the narrow, short hood. The windows are close and the windshield is more inclined than in previous Wranglers. The controls are all easily accessible. 2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 Anvil
Wrangler’s base model comes equipped with a 7″ touchscreen, which includes wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. An 8.4″ touchscreen with navigation can be added if more screen space is desired. The materials used in the Wrangler vary depending on what options you choose. Sahara and Rubicon models with leather interiors can feel luxurious, while Sport trim is all plastic and rubber. The interior of the Wrangler is very different from most other SUVs on sale (and an improvement over previous models).
The Wrangler can be converted in a variety of ways, with different degrees of ease. The “Sunrider”, which comes in two different materials (the Standard is made of vinyl, and the Premium from a canvas-like fabric), offers the same functionality as the Wrangler’s previous generation. The plastic windows and very loud motors are still present. This optional 3-Piece Hard Top, available in black or body color, offers improved visibility and security, as well as a quieter ride. The removable front seat panels are also included but must be kept somewhere. As with Sunrider, you can remove rear-quarter windows panels for an open cabin, while still keeping the roof to avoid sunburn. There is another alternative that may offer the best of both options if you don’t mind the sun. Sky One-Touch Power Roof, a large cloth sunroof that allows the most air and sunlight in.
Jeep’s Wrangler lets you perform some features that other manufacturers do not. You can remove the two or four doors. If you choose the Dual Door Group, half-doors are available. If you like the taste of insects, then the windshield can also be positioned flat against the hood. You’re left with the Jeep skeleton when you remove the roof. These features are only the start of the reasons why Wrangler fans love it so much.
Engine
Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392, a 6.4-liter engine, has been tuned specifically for this model. It produces 470 horsepower and 470 pounds-feet of torque. The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392’s 6.4-liter V8 engine is tuned to deliver 470 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque at idle speeds. This is perfect for climbing over obstacles but also allows a time from 0-60mph of just 4.5 seconds. Rubicon models have paddle shifters to give them a bit more engagement. The eight-speed auto is tuned specifically for high torque. Rubicon model 392 also come with Selec-Trac transfer cases that have a ratio of 4.72:1 and a full-time 4LO system.
Cast iron V8 with twin plugs for each cylinder, variable timing camshaft, active intake manifold, and aluminum heads. The 392 models is equipped with an oil sump at the rear, as well as a high-mount alternator and free-flowing exhaust manifolds. The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 also comes with an improved cooling hood and the Hydro-Guide intake system, which is a tri-level system of ducting that has a drain one-way in the airbox to separate incoming water from the incoming air. The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon can cross water of up to 34″ even when water is washed over top.
This model comes with a Dana 44 HD solid full-float rear axle, which allows for easier tire upsizing. The package includes the Heavy Duty Electrical Group and Trailer Tow. The package includes a Class II receiver, a heavy-duty alternator with amps, and a Class II Hitch Receiver. It allows towing of up to 3,500 pounds. The Xtreme 35 Package comes standard on the Rubicon 392, which includes shocks that are designed to withstand heavy off-road use. An electronic front sway bar disconnect is also included for when the going gets rough.
The EPA numbers for the 2023 Jeep Wrangler models are a good guide. That model achieved 13/17/14 mpg on city/highway/combined cycles, which isn’t great but isn’t unexpected, either. According to the automaker, the new Jeeps are equipped with Fuel Saver Technology that uses cylinder deactivation to reduce engine power when not in use. The fuel economy may improve slightly, but shouldn’t get worse.
Price and Release Date
The price of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is not yet known, but due to the substantial changes made, it will likely cost more. It’s not unreasonable to expect the price of a 2024 Rubicon 392 over $85,000, especially since it has been updated.
