ZF 8-speed auto?

Do we know if the JL will have the ubiquitous (and excellent) ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, currently fitted to the Grand Cherokee, Charger, and several other FCA products?

What is interesting is this transmission was specifically designed for use with start-stop systems. This could be the first Wrangler with a start-stop feature to save fuel.

Would be great if they include it, and it's a great way to get more mileage out of your gas, I just hope it wont' be a problematic transmission.

I read Jeep has been having a lot of problems with the transmission in the Cherokee. I hope they've learned something from that debacle!

I'm new to the inner workings of cars so can someone please explain to me the difference between a 6 speed and an 8 speed? Does the vehicle go faster?
