But this being a Wrangler Rubicon there’s more to it than just a big engine. There are chunky 37-inch tyres sitting on 17-inch wheels, Dana 44 axles, a beefed up eight-speed automatic gearbox and transfer case, Tru-Lok front and rear electric locking differentials, a Jeep Performance Parts 2-inch Mopar lift kit, rock rails, steel bumpers, a Warn winch and a steel belly pan.
The car you see pictured also has Granite Crystal paint, bronze tow hooks, badging, springs and shocks, and a huge bulge in the bonnet to accommodate that big V8.
Note the word ‘concept’, however – at this stage we’re not sure if it’ll actually built. I mean, does the world really need a 6.2-litre V8 off-roader? Probably not. But then again no one needed the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk either, and no one needs a Giulia Quadrifoglio. That doesn’t stop people wanting or buying them. Fingers crossed, then, it won’t be too long until we’re driving a Wrangler Rubicon 392 around the Goodwood Estate. We’ll avoid the lawn of Goodwood house, though – those chunky tyres and all that torque probably wouldn’t do much for the grass quality…
