February 12, 2026 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The Jeep® brand’s yearlong Twelve 4 Twelve celebration rolls on with a thunderous entrance as the fourth exclusive model joins the lineup, the 2026 Jeep Wrangler Willys 392. Blending the soul of the original Willys with the unmistakable growl of a 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8, this limited-edition Wrangler proves that 85 years of off-road leadership can still surprise you and shake the ground beneath you.

“Our Wrangler Willys has always represented the purest expression of Jeep capability,” said Bob Broderdorf, Jeep CEO. “Our community has been clear, they want a Wrangler that returns to a more classic, back‑to‑basics formula, paired with the unmistakable power of a V-8. The Wrangler Willys 392 is our answer, building on our commitment to expand V-8 availability across the Wrangler lineup. It delivers the heritage simplicity people love, the HEMI performance they’ve been asking for and the kind of value that makes this Jeep more accessible than ever. It celebrates everything that built this brand while pushing Jeep excitement into its next era.”

The Wrangler Willys 392 delivers a combination of heritage-inspired design and modern capability, pairing classic Willys character with the most advanced off-road powertrain ever offered on a Willys model.

At the heart of this limited-edition vehicle is the legendary 6.4-liter HEMI V-8, producing 470 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque to confidently navigate dunes, rocky terrain and steep backcountry grades. A two-mode dual exhaust system further enhances performance, allowing drivers to select between a subdued tone and a distinctive, performance-oriented exhaust note.

The Wrangler Willys 392 comes equipped with a comprehensive list of standard performance, capability and comfort features, including:

  • 35-inch BF Goodrich KO2 tires on 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels (11.1 inches of ground clearance)

  • Tru-Lok electronic locking rear differential

  • Selec-Trac full-time transfer case

  • Third generation Dana 44 heavy-duty solid front and full-float rear axles

  • 4.56 axle ratio

  • Rock rails

  • Winch capable steel front bumper

  • Steel rear bumper

  • Cold air intake hood with water separator


Additional standard equipment includes Willys hood decals and heritage 4WD rear graphics, LED exterior lighting, Nappa leather heated/power front seats, an Alpine nine-speaker premium audio system with subwoofer and 552-watt amplifier, a 12.3-inch touchscreen radio with navigation, four programmable auxiliary switches and the Trailer Tow Package. The Willys 392 also expands its palette in March with the arrival of Goldilocks, a rich, heritage‑inspired exterior color that adds a fresh standout option for 2026.

Orders for the new 2026 Jeep Wrangler Willys 392 will open in March, with a starting MSRP of $69,995 (excluding $1,995 destination).
