The limited-edition vehicle is the 2023 Wrangler Rubicon 392 20th Anniversary with heavy-duty off-road parts customization from American Expedition Vehicles.

Only 150 of the SUVs will be produced as part of a broader 20th Anniversary collection of Wrangler’s popular Rubicon model.

Automakers such as Stellantis, Jeep’s parent company, have of late been testing their pricing power on high-end and special-edition models.

CHICAGO – Jeep on Thursday revealed its most expensive Wrangler SUV ever, topping more than $115,000.

The limited-edition vehicle is the 2023 Wrangler Rubicon 392 20th Anniversary with heavy-duty off-road parts customization from upfitter American Expedition Vehicles.

Only 150 of the AEV SUVs will be produced as part of a broader 20th Anniversary collection of Wrangler’s popular Rubicon model. Automakers such as Stellantis
, Jeep’s parent company, have of late been testing their pricing power on high-end and special-edition models.

“We’re testing a different level for sure but the aftermarket is doing that now,” Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America, told CNBC during an interview at the Chicago Auto Show. “Capability is the king for Wrangler, and we’re seeing it happening a lot more and we’re happy to be a part of it.”

Jeep owners more than any others in the automotive industry are well-known for adding massive amounts of accessories and aftermarket parts to their SUVs.

The new vehicle is powered by a V8 engine with 470 horsepower and 470 pounds-feet of torque that can accelerate 0-60 mph in about 4.5 seconds, according to the company.

Off-road parts include 37-inch tires and special AEV lights, bumpers, skip plates, shocks and other equipment for scaling rocks and other rough terrain.

The record-breaking $115,668 price tag is for the Jeep-AEV vehicle. The 2023 Wrangler Rubicon 392 20th Anniversary vehicle, without the extra off-roading capability, starts at $94,485. A plug-in hybrid electric version of the 20th Anniversary Wrangler Rubicon SUV starts at $71,380. All pricing includes mandatory logistics and destination fees.

All of the vehicles feature special-edition styling and badging for the 20th Anniversary of the Rubicon models, which are named after a renowned trail in California. They also include a new seven-slot grille, beadlock-capable wheels, 83-piece tool kit and other features.

Ordering for the vehicles will begin later this month, according to Jeep. They are expected to arrive in Jeep dealerships during the second quarter.

I’d buy one if I won the lottery.

My current Rubicon is decked out in AEV products.

AEV makes good shit.

The Rubicon 392 is pretty damn expensive by itself.

Does it come with an optional transmission that doesn't break down?

Will it still drive like shit at highway speed?

Every time I come up on a pack of cars in the ozarks going slow, the leader of the parade is a lifted wrangler covered in SaltLife and Yeti stickers with a white knuckled and wide eyed hipster going 10+ under.

And every one of them will sell quickly, most likely even before they physically hit the dealer's lot.
And some will have an additional $20k markup for "market adjustment", especially here in the southwest.

The zf8hp variants are pretty fucking solid, but you know people like to shit on things they know nothing about.

That is retarded.

Jeeps are cool and AEV makes tier 1 stuff.

But that is retarded.

You can buy a brand new Lexus LX 600 (Land Cruiser) and deck it out with off road gear for $115k.

Worth it just for the V8 instead of that piece of shit Chrysler 3.6 trash that I'm currently having parts replaced on probably including a cylinder head.

Mine had to be towed from my driveway on day 2 of ownership.  137 miles on the vehicle.  Took Jeep 3 weeks to fix the issue and get a new tranny to my dealer.

I'll eventually get to drive one at the auction. Some of those Wranglers drive nice. Others it's like you are in a buckboard on a road full of pot holes. Never could see where the money is in them. Got to play with a $200,000 Porsche the other day.

Don’t worry about the tool kit
Just keep tow trucks on speed dial
Several grand Waggoner have craped
OUT completely, dealer could not fix customers bought Escalades and fords to replace them, .
Other people had said jeep was in shop more days than out
