2022 Grand Wagoneer
Overview
The 2022 Grand Wagoneer aims to be the biggest and most opulent full-size luxury SUV in the company’s lineup, delivering a genuinely upscale experience for buyers with luxurious aspirations. The Grand Wagoneer’s very name and boxy design harken back to the iconic SUV of old, which also served as the pinnacle of the Jeep lineup in prior decades. Today’s Grand Wagoneer continues that tradition through its powerful V8 engine, advanced 4WD capabilities, and a stunning array of luxury, technology, and convenience features.
The Perfect Ride For…
Anyone in search of a genuinely luxurious and feature-rich SUV with plenty of room to spare. The 2022 Grand Wagoneer makes no compromises in its size and luxury trappings. Depending on whether you choose the standard second-row bench seat or optional captain’s chairs, the opulent interior offers room for up to eight passengers while surrounding them with genuine wood accents and premium leather upholstery. Jeep’s latest SUV offering comes in four unique flavors, starting with the well-equipped Series I. The Series II adds distinctive 22-inch wheels and seats trimmed in premium Palermo leather, while the Obsidian trim adds tinted glass and black trim features inside and out. The top-ranking Series III piles on the luxury features, including quilted leather-trimmed seats and a 23-speaker sound system.
Drive and Handling
Whereas the smaller Wagoneer could be had in 2WD and 4WD guises, the 2022 Grand Wagoneer makes 4WD a mandatory feature across its entire lineup. Likewise, a 6.4-liter V8 engine offers the only means of motivation for the luxurious full-size SUV. Rated at an impressive 471 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque, the big V8 lets you take advantage of the Grand Wagoneer’s ample torque at low RPMs. An 8-speed automatic transmission handles shifting duties with ease. An available heavy-duty towing package lets the large SUV take full advantage of its 9,860-pound maximum towing capacity by adding a trailer brake controller, beefier engine cooling, and a few trailer-specific options for the backup camera.
The standard Quadra-Drive II 4WD system helps the Grand Wagoneer live up to brand expectations when it comes to traversing rough trails, making it one of the few luxury SUVs capable of traversing the unknown with surprising ease. The Quadra-Lift air suspension system provides ample ground clearance for tackling a variety of off-road obstacles while providing a comfortable ride through its semi-active damping capabilities.
Key Features
Displays
A 12.3-inch fully digital display replaces the traditional gauge cluster, giving drivers a clean and customizable readout of speed, fuel, temperature, and driver-assist warnings. Another 12-inch display sits front and center, giving you access to the latest Uconnect infotainment and navigation features. A smaller screen underneath offers comprehensive climate controls for four distinct zones. An optional front passenger-side 10.25-inch touch screen display lets your front seat occupants manage navigation settings and even enjoy their favorite media throughout the ride.
Safety
You’ll find a broad range of safety and driver assistance features in the 2022 Grand Wagoneer, including blind-spot monitoring and a 360-degree camera system that monitors obstacles around the vehicle. Available Intersection Collision Assist not only detects oncoming vehicles but also engages the brakes automatically to prevent or mitigate collisions. An available Night Vision Camera feature broadcasts thermal imagery onto the digital cluster display, allowing drivers to spot pedestrians, animals, and other obstacles that would otherwise be difficult to spot in the dark.
