Jeep Grand Wagoneer: Questions Answered

author: FutureCar Staff    

The Grand Wagoneer is making waves as the most luxurious Jeep ever created. With a price tag approaching $100,000, it's filled with unique luxury features that have garnered both love and hate from the public. As we embark on a week-long test drive, we invite you to pick our brains and ask any questions you may have about this massive vehicle.

First and foremost, it's important to clarify that the Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer are distinct vehicles. While they share the same body and chassis, the Wagoneer serves as the entry-level option starting at around $61,500, while the Grand Wagoneer takes the helm as the flagship of the Jeep brand, starting at approximately $91,000. Fully loaded, the price can reach close to $120,000.

As a result, the Grand Wagoneer finds itself in direct competition with vehicles like the BMW X7, Mercedes GLS, and Cadillac Escalade. These established players each have their own share of the market. The question remains: is the Grand Wagoneer truly grand enough to make a dent in this competitive landscape? We're eager to discover the answer.

Under the hood, the Grand Wagoneer offers two engine options. You can choose between a 6.4-liter V8 with 471 horsepower and 455 lb-ft of torque, or a twin-turbocharged inline-six generating 510 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque. Both engines send power to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. However, it's worth noting that fuel economy is not the Grand Wagoneer's strong suit, with city mileage falling below 15 mpg regardless of driving style.

During our week-long test drive, we will be taking the Grand Wagoneer on various excursions. We invite you to let us know what aspects you would like us to focus on. What specific features are you most interested in? Ask us the tough questions, and we promise to provide you with the unfiltered truth.
