In 2024, Jeep launched the Wrangler 392 Final Edition as a last Hemi hurrah. Unfortunately for buyers, it wasn’t so final as the model returned for 2025 due to “popular demand.”

Fast forward to today and Jeep is changing their tune entirely. Speaking at a media event in Detroit, CEO Bob Broderdorf confirmed the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 isn’t going anywhere.

That’s great news for Wrangler fans as the almighty V8 pumps out 470 hp (350 kW / 476 PS) and 470 lb-ft (637 Nm) of torque. This enables the SUV to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 4.5 seconds and run the quarter mile in 13 seconds flat.

While it’s nice to see the engine sticking around, Broderdorf confirmed additional V8 models are on the horizon. With the return of SRT, this has us hopeful for a new Grand Cherokee SRT8 or Trackhawk. It’s also not hard to imagine the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 returning to the Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L.

Only time will tell what happens, but Broderdorf said other powertrains are in the works. We got a glimpse of one earlier today as the teaser image for the 2026 Grand Wagoneer suggested it will have a range-extended powertrain. The company has also previously confirmed plans for a hybrid Cherokee and a plug-in hybrid Gladiator 4xe.

Broderdorf said powertrains are the “heart and soul” of vehicles, so the new options should get customers excited. He also believes they’ll open up new opportunities for the brand as well as usher in new buyers. We’ve already seen this play out as the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe quickly established themselves as some of the most popular plug-in hybrids in America.

Wrangler And Gladiator Will Get More Options

Besides talking about powertrains, Broderdorf told us the Wrangler and Gladiator will offer more personalization and customization in the future. We can also expect additional options including larger tire sizes.

The exact specifics remain to be seen, but the executive suggested buyers will be able to order uniquely colored components such as fender flares. This will enable Jeep to tap even deeper into the highly profitable market for customization.

Tesla still commands a 40+ percent share of the US EV market, but demand is down 11 percent Jan-June, and it’s not only declining new car sales that are causing alarm. The brand also dominates a list of the used cars whose value is dropping hardest.

The Elon Musk-headed automaker bagged four spaces in the top 10 list of biggest losers collated by the data crunchers at iSeeCars, and a fourth Tesla also found its way onto the chart.

Including one other brand’s value-shedding model, EVs accounted for five of the 10 cars judged to have shed the biggest percentage of their value in 10 months. And that’s despite electric vehicles only accounting for 3.3 percent of the 1- to 5-year-old used market.

Tesla Tops the List of Falling Used Car Values

The study found the Model S suffered the biggest percentage price drop – though not the biggest dollar drop. The sedan’s average price in June 2025 was $46,700, which is 15.8 percent or $8,800 lower than it was 12 months earlier.

The Model X SUV actually lost more money – $9,500 – but due to its higher initial price, that drop only represented a 15.5 percent fall, putting it in second place. Third spot went to the Model Y, which fell $4,600 or 13.6 percent, probably in part due to the arrival of a facelifted version of the SUV this spring.

TOP 10 USED CAR PRICE DROPS

The Model 3’s value slid 9.4 percent, putting it in sixth spot, behind the fourth-place Ford Explorer hybrid (down 10 percent) and Jeep Gladiator (fifth place, down 9.6 percent). And Porsche’s Taycan lost 7 percent of its value, earning it eighth place, meaning all five of the EVs on the list lost far more than the average EV, whose value fell by 4.8 percent.

Sandwiched between the Model 3 and the Taycan is the Maserati Levante (seventh place, down 7.9 percent), and the top 10 is rounded out by the Chrysler Voyager (ninth, down 6.6 percent) and Lincoln Aviator (tenth, down 5.9 percent).

Used EV Values Lag Behind the Market

All five EVs on the list fell significantly more than the average for used electric vehicles, which dropped just 4.8 percent. By contrast, used internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles actually gained in value slightly, up 5.2 percent on average over the same 12-month period.

The study appears to show that American consumers are less interested in EVs as used cars, and that sentiment is likely to carry over into future years as this September’s scrapping of EV tax credits begins to take effect and the ripples are felt in the used market.
