2022 Jeep Wagoneer

Jeep continues to build on its reputation as a go-anywhere brand by introducing the all-new Grand Wagoneer. The original Wagoneer was designed and developed to be far more than just another vehicle, and this modern interpretation of its predecessor is no different. Taking styling cues from the first-generation model, which launched in 1963, the all-new Grand Wagoneer is the most premium SUV in the Jeep lineup. Developed by FCA’s Global Body Exterior Design team in Auburn Hills, Michigan, and engineered by its 4×4 vehicle dynamics teams in Detroit, this next-generation SUV will continue to keep its customers on or off-road for years to come. The model uses a modern approach to design by mixing the traditional styling cues from the original Wagoneer with those found on other Jeep models. The result is a vehicle with classic styling, and all the modern amenities drivers expect. As part of an exclusive reveal event, we took a closer look at the all-new Grand Wagoneer in detail. It’s available in four models; Wagoneer Series I, Wagoneer Series II, Wagoneer Series III, and Wagoneer Obsidian, which are all 4x4s.

Performance and Capability

It all starts with a solid foundation. And the all-new Grand Wagoneer’s foundation is strong with body-on-frame construction and Quadra Linkâ„¢ front and five-link rear suspension. This next-generation SUV is powered by a modern interpretation of the classic 707 hp 6.4L V8 engine that lives under its classic, sculptured hood. At the heart and soul of its predecessors, the new Grand Wagoneer is engineered to handle whatever you can dish out on- or off-road. It also gets a heavily modified version of the Quadra-Drive II automatic 4×4 system with legendary capability, which was first used on the Wrangler Rubicon and then adopted for other family members such as the Grand Cherokee SRT and Trackhawk models. The new model also has a rear electronic limited-slip differential, 2.72:1 low-range gear ratio, Selec-Terrain Traction Management System to give dedicated control and a Selec-Speed Control system driver’s choice speed for on-road driving. When it comes to capability, the all-new Grand Wagoneer is also equipped with a modern approach to design by combining old school looks with new school performance. The electronically controlled air suspension system responds to changing road conditions and can lower the vehicle for improved aerodynamics at high speeds or raise it to negotiate steep grades.

Technology

The 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer uses state-of-the-art technology to make it one of the most advanced SUVs on the market.
