SRT's Jeep Wrangler Scrambler Concept Is a Desert-Racing Pickup
LAS VEGAS – November 02, 2026 -- SRT Performance has unveiled the Jeep Wrangler Scrambler SRT Concept, an open-air pickup built on a Wrangler foundation that is the first high-speed, desert-performance Jeep concept to wear an SRT badge. It reimagines the Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler, which paired Jeep capability with pickup utility.
A first for Wrangler: independent front suspension
The concept uses an all-new, high-travel independent front suspension, a historic first for Wrangler. Developed with off-road racing champion Casey Currie, it is meant to improve stability, steering precision and wheel control at high speed off-road.
The architecture builds on the system first shown on the Jeep Striker Concept. Currie drove his custom Jeep Gladiator "Striker" to a class victory at the NORRA 500 with it. A trophy-truck-inspired rear axle, a heavy-duty wheel package and desert-racing-informed hardware round out the hardware.
