Jeep Grand Wagoneer teased once again ahead of September 3 debut
KUALA LUMPUR: After years of promises and waiting, the American off-road brand Jeep looks ready to reveal the reborn SUV, Grand Wagoneer. Over the past month, the automaker released countless teaser images and videos of the SUV, leading to the debut.
Out of the most recent teaser images, one is a top-down view of the luxury SUV, showing a massive glass roof fixture with a distinct mapping overlay. The closer analysis reveals that it bears a map of Detroit.
The second photo is of the Grand Wagoneer interior design, previewing a large chromed air-vent that features reverse C-shaped slats and chrome detailing. There is also a silhouette of the Grand Wagoneer engraved on the lateral side of the vent with the phrase, "EST. 1963," paying homage to first-generation Jeep Grand Wagoneer. The SUV is likely to have a massive 12-inch frameless infotainment screen.
In the previous teasers, we have seen the SUV's unique seven-slat grille, the exterior logo with an American flag emblem, the engine stop-start button in the cabin, chrome infotainment controller, and a shadowy photo of the front profile.
The three-row SUV will be offered in two body styles - the regular Wagoneer and the long-wheelbase Wagoneer called the Grand Wagoneer. It is likely to be based on the Ram 1500's body-on-frame platform and will be offered in two engine options - 3.6-litre V6 producing 309 PS of power and 364 Nm of torque and a 5.7-litre V8 churning out 400 PS and 556 Nm. A naturally aspirated 6.4-litre Hemi V8 engine is also expected, and for transmission, there will be a ZF eight-speed automatic transmission for all. Hybrid and plug-in hybrid trims are also in the pipeline.
But unfortunately, the coming September 3 will reveal the Jeep Grand Wagoneer in concept form only, which means we will have to wait a little more for the real thing. The automaker will also unveil the production-spec Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid at the same event. It was initially shown at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show and features a charging port integrated into the windshield base.
