442 ft lbs of torque in the new JL diesel???

[Thegreenmachine12]

I've been reading this morning that the new 3.0L ecodiesel JL Wrangler will come with 260 horsepower and 442 ft lbs of torque from the factory! That is nuts. ONLY paired with the 8spd auto though... still some crazy torque numbers for a factory Jeep!

Definitely waiting for the diesel.

As much as I want one of these things, I think I may wait until it's out for a year or so to make sure there aren't too many bugs.

Agreed. I’ll be at the dealership to test drive one though!

Once the diesel comes out there should be a tune for it. That’ll really boost it. The torque should be awesome.

What’s the torque on a 3.6?

No joke! I wonder how much extra the diesel option will be? I'm sure the price of the Rubicon will be much more also

That’s enough to break some stuff, for sure

The current version can handle the 3300 lb trailer I have, pretty well.

My guess, paired with a fully-loaded Rubicon, you're looking at your first ~$65K stock Wrangler.

I'm hoping closer to 55k, but I wouldn't be surprised

Correct me if I’m wrong, did he say the diesel will get about 30mpg?

It was posted on JLW that it’s going to be 6500 for the JT.
