The Jeep Wagoneer and the Jeep Grand Wagoneer are full-size SUVs produced by the North American division of Stellantis under the Jeep marque.[1] Both vehicles were revealed in March 2021 for the 2022 model year. Production of the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and Jeep Grand Wagoneer will commence in the first half of 2021 at Warren Truck Assembly.[2]

History

In January 2011, Sergio Marchionne, CEO of Fiat S.p.A., and later Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), announced at his press conference at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, that the name "Grand Wagoneer" would be relaunched with a new SUV, in which seven places which should be studied in 2013.[3] On 2 September 2013, Chrysler announced that they would delay production until 2015 to allow the Dodge Durango to find an audience, but at the same time would use the Grand Wagoneer concept as a basis for a full-size luxury SUV that would compete against the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator, whose redesigns went on sale in 2014.[4]

On 9 June 2015, FCA announced that it would unveil a new version of the full-sized Grand Wagoneer at its dealers' convention on 25 August 2015.[5] In August 2015, however, Fiat announced that the production of the upcoming Grand Cherokee replacement would be delayed into 2018.[6] It is scheduled to be built at Warren Truck Assembly while the next-generation Ram 1500 is to be built at Sterling Heights Assembly.[7] On 18 October 2016, Jeep released teaser photos of the Grand Wagoneer, which indicated that it would be based on the third generation Durango and introduced as a 2019 model.[8] The plan was delayed again.[9]

On December 5, 2019, spy shots surfaced of FCA testing a Jeep Wagoneer using a RAM 1500 body on frame SUV; it was not known at the time if there would be a Grand Wagoneer to accompany it at this point but later confirmed that there will be a long-wheelbase companion. Due to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, FCA delayed the start of production by at least three months, and was expected to debut this full-size version in early 2021 as a 2022 model.[10][11][12]

On September 3, 2020,[13] Jeep presented the Jeep Grand Wagoneer concept, which foreshadows the next Grand Wagoneer marketed in 2021.[14] The SUV is distinguished by a massive silhouette with oblong headlights and a multi-hole grille.[15] A characteristic feature is the lack of manufacturer's markings on the body and in the passenger compartment in favor of emblems with the model name.[16] Production models of the Wagoneer were revealed on March 11, 2021.[17] The first models are expected to ship later in the year, with general dealership availability starting October 2021.

An integrated virtual assistant is also available as an option that can be activated by the phrase, "Hey UConnect", or "Hey Jeep".
