The 2026 Jeep Wrangler lineup has been officially unveiled, bringing exciting updates that include a more affordable version of the celebrated 392 V8 model alongside a full year-long campaign of 12 new special editions. These limited-run variants are designed to celebrate the Wrangler’s 85th anniversary in 2026, providing enthusiasts with diverse styling, technology, and off-road capability options throughout the year.
Cheaper 392 V8: The Moab 392
The highlight is the new 6.4-liter (392 cubic inch) V8-powered Wrangler Moab 392, which delivers the well-known 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. Crucially, Jeep has managed to reduce the starting price by about $20,000 compared to the 2025 Rubicon 392, bringing it down to $81,990 including destination fees in the US market. This makes the Moab 392 the most accessible V8 Wrangler yet, targeting buyers seeking raw power and legendary off-road prowess without the higher price tag of the Rubicon 392.
The Moab 392 shares many features with the Rubicon 392, including 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels, 35-inch all-terrain tires, a body-colored hardtop, black tow hooks, and Nappa leather-trimmed seats. Inside, it offers a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a nine-speaker Alpine audio system, delivering both luxury and capability. Orders for this model have already opened, with deliveries commencing shortly.
Twelve New Special Editions Throughout the Year
To mark Wrangler’s 85 years, Jeep will launch a series of 12 special-edition models, one each month, starting with the Moab 392 in November 2025. Each special edition will highlight unique themes, colors, and accessories celebrating the brand’s off-roading heritage and culture. These editions will appeal to collectors and fans eager to own distinctive Wrangler variants packed with exclusive features. Jeep has teased these models through social media campaigns, encouraging enthusiasts to watch for “clues” about each installment.
Broader Wrangler 2026 Portfolio
Apart from the new Moab 392, the 2026 Wrangler range continues to offer a variety of trims, including the Sport, Sahara, 4xe plug-in hybrid trims, and the high-performance Rubicon 392. Diesel variants remain available in overseas markets but are not officially offered in the US or Australia. Across trims, Jeep’s off-road technology remains best-in-class with features like locking differentials, electronic sway bar disconnect, skid plates, and Trail Rated certification, ensuring unparalleled trail capability.
