Looks like they still forgot to have a Hemi option? Again!

At the very least a they promised the 3.0L Diesel with more torque than the current 5.3L Hemi and 30MPG.

30MPG Diesel vs a 20MPG gas. You may have to drive far for what I image will be a considerable up-charge on the base Wrangler. 442ft-lbs with an 82:1 crawl ratio is madness.

A hemi will most likely fit pretty easily in the engine bay, or at least an LS swap considering how big the 3.6L engine is.
