add

gem 'therubyracer'

to your Gemfile and run

bundle

command The ‘rails new’ command creates a new Rails application with a default
directory structure and configuration at the path you specify.

You can specify extra command-line arguments to be used every time
'rails new' runs in the .railsrc configuration file in your home directory,
or in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rails/railsrc if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set.

Note that the arguments specified in the .railsrc file don't affect the
defaults values shown above in this help message.
