Jeep revived the storied Grand Wagoneer nameplate for a large three-row luxury SUV based on the Ram 1500 pickup truck.
Unlike the Ram, the Grand Wagoneer has independent rear suspension.
The 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline six-cylinder is the primary engine, with a range-extended electric version coming later in 2026.
The Grand Wagoneer rides comfortably, particularly if equipped with the optional air suspension, and the big SUV is very quiet.
Handling is sound but not a strong suit.
The cabin is very roomy, and even the third-row seat is suitable for adults.
Jeep turned to a storied nameplate for an all-new, full-sized SUV.
The Wagoneer and the more premium Grand Wagoneer are the same vehicle, distinguished by powertrain, equipment, and trim details.
The base engine is a 392-hp, 5.7-liter V8 on the Wagoneer.
The Grand Wagoneer is fitted with a 471-hp, 6.4-liter V8.
Each is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The Wagoneer has standard rear-wheel drive, while the Grand Wagoneer has a standard four-wheel drive.
The more premium-priced Grand Wagoneer looks to set a high standard for comfort and convenience features, with large infotainment screens, generous wood trim, and available audiophile-grade stereo.
Both versions come with a solid roster of standard active safety features, including FCW, AEB with pedestrian detection, and BSW. For 2024, the V8 engines on both the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer were dropped in favor of more efficient and powerful twin-turbocharged inline-6 powerplants.
The Grand Wagoneer received a 30-hp power bump to 540-hp for the 2025 model year. For 2026, Jeep has discontinued the Wagoneer and consolidated all trims under the Grand Wagoneer name.
A range-extended electric version will join the lineup later.
