Jeep Is Building a Wrangler Scrambler SRT With Removable Roof ...
The two-door Gladiator-based pickup is the wildest Jeep in years — and the Father of the Hellcats is the one holding the keys.
www.thedrive.comHere’s the latest on the Jeep Wrangler Scrambler SRT as of May 2026.
Direct answer
- Jeep has publicly signaled a Wrangler Scrambler with a high-performance SRT variant as part of Stellantis’ FaSTLane 2030 plan, targeting introduction before 2030. Several outlets reported this confirmation from Stellantis’ 2026 Investor Day and related roadmap slides.
Key details being discussed in reports
- Base concept: A two-door Gladiator-based Wrangler Scrambler, positioned as a high-performance pickup with a potential V8 powertrain discussion around a 6.4L Hemi, and a removable roof design, including rear-seat configurations described as backward-facing in some summaries. These elements appear across multiple coverage pieces stemming from the Investor Day reveal and subsequent analysis.
- Timing: Stellantis’ FaSTLane 2030 roadmap frames the Scrambler SRT alongside other new/updated Jeep models with a goal of rolling out before 2030, though exact market timing and configurations may evolve as development progresses.
- Context in product lineup: The Scrambler SRT is described as a halo/brand-highlight variant within Jeep’s broader push for high-performance and off-road capable models in the coming years, with several outlets noting the substantial scope of Jeep’s upcoming lineup.
What reports say vs. what’s confirmed
- Confirmations: Stellantis’ Investor Day materials and subsequent coverage indicate the Scrambler name and SRT-forward concept are official parts of the plan, with the Scrambler-based model appearing on the FaSTLane 2030 roadmap.
- Open questions: Specific final design details (engine displacement, exact power figures, suspension specifics, and production timing windows) have not been officially finalized in public detail, and outlets are extrapolating from the roadmap and concept buck/3D-printed previews.
- Competitive and regulatory context: There’s general industry discussion about balancing high-performance V8 options with tightening emissions rules and the potential shift toward electrified variants, but concrete powertrain specs for the Scrambler SRT have not been officially published yet.
