Just checked and have a vin assigned this morning. From what our Stellantis Rep told us they start building in November so it is possible for this year. But a lot can happen to slow it down.
I priced the 221 on Jeep.com and was with in 3500 of what the 22 ended up. They did have some increases on options. but I did not think any were out of line at all and I am a cheap ass.
