Wyatt Knox of Team O'Neil drove a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 Xtreme Recon around a 1.25-mile snow-covered rally course to evaluate the V8 four-door's rally performance.
The Wrangler 392 was fitted with studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta winter tires and, Knox said in the video, could spin all four wheels in 4-Hi and Off-Road Plus modes. Its anti-lock braking system could not be disabled, which exacerbated understeer caused by the longer Unlimited wheelbase and solid front axle.
Knox said driving the Wrangler 392 was fun but that he would not want to repeat it, and the Jeep completed the course in 2:26.34. The test highlights how the Wrangler 392's Hemi delivers straight-line pace but is hampered by chassis and electronic limits, while Jeep has added Moab and Willys 2026 trims alongside the Rubicon, with the Willys about $30,000 cheaper than a 2025 Wrangler 392.
