( www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! The 2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 is an insane toy - an off-roader with a massive 6.4L Hemi V8 under the hood. Nevertheless, all that power makes it far quicker than any Wrangler ought to be...but can it actually beat a purpose-built V8 pony car like our Ford Mustang GT? Andre and Nathan find out!

I'm disappointed... as a mustang owner, you should know the 392 engine is big and bulky, the power drops due to weight... if the mustang just got on throttle a split second faster, it would have downshifted fast enough to blow past the 392 a couple lengths... and i'm guessing it isn't tuned, but the mustang will get loads faster, that 392 MIGHT get 10hp.

Having a 2013 GT and racing my wife's 2021 Grand Cherokee SRT for the last 3 years, I knew the results before even watching this. The GC has much better aerodynamics than the Wrangler, but I reel her in every time. That 6.4 is amazing, any my wife has a best of 13.0 at 104mph in the 1/4 at 2500ft elevation. That is nothing to balk at for a N/A SUV pushing over 5K lbs. But her extra 60HP cannot overcome a 1,500lb weight difference and the aero as well, even with AWD giving her a much better 60ft time. BTW, my best was 12.5 at 112mph stock. Just FYI for those that want a better idea of how much elevation affects time slips.

@troyt5309 7 ай бұрын

I could be wrong but there are not many faster SUVs on the road. The 392 is faster than most all of them you may run into daily and the hellcat is faster than all but a couple that cost twice as much to possibly edge it out. Mopars 6 liter SUV's are pretty dominate on the road for a SUV. A select BMW M series or a AMG might be a touch faster than the 392 but not by much especially for the price difference. And those are slower than the hellcat equipped version. You need to look at a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT for $200,000 to edge out a $100,000 Hellcat SUV and I can tell you what's the odds of running into either one of those in the streets. Got to give Mopar credit where credit is do for affordable performance SUV's. There are some modded Jeep Trackhawks and Durangos going down the 1/4 mile in the 8's, very impressive for 5000+ lb vehicles.

If I was stoplight banging I'd take the awd 392 as well, but in the 1/4 you ain't beating the coyote once it gets the chance to stretch its legs although it's a pretty close race in the end.

The turbo sleds do a lot better at elevation than the NA engines turbos or forced induction don’t lose much if any power at high elevation. What about cars would it be the same thing turbos at elevation don’t lose power. The jeep actually impressed me more than the mustang didn’t lose by much. Good stuff thanks for sharing.
