The new V8-powered Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is now available to buy in the UK from the luxury automobile dealer, Clive Sutton. prices start from £105,000.

Jeep goes electric: first EV model revealed before 2023 launch

Despite this, the step indicates UK buyers now have another choice in the rapidly expanding performance 4×4 sector, with the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 squaring up against the Mercedes-AMG G 63 and the V8-powered version of the Land Rover Defender in Britain.

As its name suggests, the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 is powered by a detuned version of the 6.4-litre (or 392 cubic inch) V8 engine found in the Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack. It produces 470bhp and 637Nm of torque, which Jeep says is enough for a 0–60mph time of 4.5 seconds and a quarter mile time of around 13 seconds.
The engine is hitched to an eight-speed automatic gearbox and a mechanical four-wheel drive system, which is supported by locking differentials, knobbly 33-inch tyres, uprated Fox monotube dampers and new suspension geometry. All that indicates it’s around two inches taller than the conventional Wrangler’s setup.
