Jeep’s 392 Final Edition is the Wrangler’s last hurrah

Some of the most iconic nameplates in the automotive industry were made to bid adieu in recent years, courtesy of impending electrification. That famed list now gets extended with the latest addition of the Jeep Wrangler 392 – the quickest and most powerful Wrangler yet. And Jeep aims to honour this legendary vehicle with a special limited-production Final Edition. Limited to just 3,700 units globally, the Jeep Wrangler 392 Rubicon Final Edition is powered by the same 470 hp 6.4-litre V8 SRT engine. However, the Final Edition units get a factory-installed 8,000-pound-capacity winch, MOPAR heavy-duty rock sliders, a half-inch suspension lift enabling enhanced ground clearance and water fording capabilities and a new hood and fender vent decal package. Inside the cabin, new black nappa leather-trimmed seats, a MOPAR fold-out swing gate table, an onboard air compressor, a Mopar Jeep 83-piece toolkit and all-weather slush mats will be offered in this swansong derivative. Production is set to commence in May 2024 with the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 392 Final Edition expected to arrive in the Middle East in the second half of 2024.

Alfa Romeo Milano will now be called Alfa Romeo Junior

In a surprising turn of events, Alfa Romeo’s first EV launch – the Milano, will now be called the Alfa Romeo Junior. Alfa Romeo had to incorporate this change as the initial name ‘Milano’ got embroiled in legal complications. The Italian government found it misleading to allow a car to be named after an Italian city and subsequently not get built in Italy. Hence, in the spirit of promoting mutual understanding, Alfa Romeo decided to rename its first-ever EV as Junior which was also the name of Alfa’s 1966 toned-down iteration of the Giulia called the GT 1300 Junior to attract younger fans to the brand. Jean-Philippe Imparato, CEO of Alfa Romeo said, “We decided to change the name, even though we know that we are not required to do so, because we want to preserve the positive emotion that our products have always generated and avoid any type of controversy. The attention to our new sports compact that we’ve received the past few days is quite exciting as we had an unprecedented number of visits to the online configurator, causing the website to crash for a couple hours.”
