Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 2021.

The 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon is a new V-engine SUV.
Ford recently held a large-scale presentation of the revived Bronco SUV. It will definitely be a strong novelty that will seriously hit competitors. Of course, if there is nothing to strike back. For example, Jeep has something. Their timeless hit Wrangler is in demand.

But Ford will roll out the Bronco with a V8 engine in the spring of 2021, which is a good reason for American connoisseurs to change their preferences. Therefore, Wrangler urgently receives a powerful version with the Rubicon 392 index.

Technical stuffing

The classic Jeep Wrangler is based on a coil-spring suspension frame with anti-roll bars on both axles. Ventilated disc brakes. The steering column is adjustable. There is no central differential lock.

Rubicon 392 differs from the base version in almost all respects: the frame is reinforced, supports for the new engine are added, Fox monotube shock absorbers, Dana 44 axles and a new exhaust system are installed.

The drive has got a two-speed transfer case and electric locking of the front and rear differentials. And from above the whole thing is put on 37-inch wheels with «mud» tread.

Also, the Performance Parts package is moored here, which makes it possible to raise the car by another 50 mm (the clearance is already raised by 50 mm thanks to the new wheels), which at the exit allows you to force a water barrier up to 864 mm deep.

As for the powertrain in the V8 architecture, there are no more details about it yet. It is only known that it is from the Hemi family (those that are now on sale from the Hurricane family), has a volume of 6.4 liters and produces up to 456 hp. at 610 Hm. An 8-band machine is paired with it.

What is also remarkable, the dynamics of the novelty, as for an all-terrain vehicle, is quite impressive — 4.9 seconds to hundreds. The maximum speed is 200 km / h. Also, as for the new exhaust system, the driver will be able to adjust the sound using two flaps.

Onboard equipment

For all its formidable looks and pricey price tag, the Wrangler has never been premium equipment.
Considering that the Rubicon 392 fully inherits the onboard equipment of the 4th generation serial variants, the list will be as follows:

Light and tire pressure sensors;
Multimedia with 7 «screen (8.4» optional) and 9-speaker Alpine music with USB and AUX ports;
7-inch virtual dashboard + on-board computer;
Central locking and remote control key;
4 airbags and an attachment for a child seat;
2-zone climate;
Spare full-size wheel;
Signaling;
Immobilizer;
Rear parking sensors and camera.

Systems are responsible for passive safety: ABS, ESP, TCS, DAC and HAC. Of the minuses: only the 1st generation cruise control and completely absent electric seat adjustment.

Additionally, the Rubicon 392 will offer electronic front stabilization shutdown and remote engine start via the app as an option.

Body and dimensions

The show car was presented exclusively in a 4-door version of the factory model. Whether there will be a compartment version in the event of the launch of mass production, the company representatives do not yet know themselves.

There are not many differences from the serial version:
Enlarged wheels;
Soft folding roof, instead of a hard one (also collapsible);
Lack of thresholds;
Another, more powerful bumper with a winch;
Lack of side and rear windows.
The dimensions remain original. Only the height has grown due to the increased clearance

Salon

The interior of the all-terrain vehicle was not shown, but at the same time they did not hide it. It’s just that it is no different from the serial version. Unless the show car was made in red, which was not presented in the 4th generation.

Planting formula 2 + 3. The torpedo is tall, leaving plenty of knee room. The center console is strewn with analog buttons. Multi-wheel with a thick rim. Good old American plastic is everywhere.

The armchairs do not have a sporty profile, but are covered with leather. The volume of the trunk is 898 liters, and with the sofa folded down — 2050 liters.

Competitors

Here one could write Toyota Land Cruiser 200, Lexus GX or Land Rover Discovery as competitors, but even visually it is clear that these are completely different cars, albeit with pronounced off-road qualities.

However, the Rubicon is an all-terrain vehicle and who wants 37-inch wheels will take either this or a fresh Bronco. Although the latter, by the way, will be almost half the price.

Price and start date

So far, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 remains a show car. According to the president of the company, so far they are assessing the reaction of the audience and only then will make a decision whether to start the car in mass production or not.

So in 2020, there is no talk of a serial launch. But given the love of American and Australian car enthusiasts for the V8 brand and engines, a positive decision is just around the corner.

The price has not yet been announced. Today, the most expensive configuration with a 272 hp inline turbo four. costs 4.9 million rubles. And given the upgrade, we should expect a price tag in the area 5.5 million rubles.
