The verdict

What's good

Trail-rated 4WD with low-range capability separates it from every European luxury SUV rival
Three-row interior with available Jeep-exclusive features like heated third-row seats is unique in class
Updated connectivity suite now includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard
Tow capacity leads the full-size luxury SUV segment at Summit and above trim levels

What's not

Reliability remains the most frequently cited concern in owner surveys at this price point
V8 fuel costs over five years of ownership add thousands compared to hybrid rivals
Long-term resale data shows steeper depreciation than Escalade or Navigator counterparts
Dealer service quality inconsistency means ownership experience varies significantly by region

The engine

Hemi

6.4L Hemi V8

In the Grand Wagoneer this big 392-cubic-inch Hemi is deliberately tuned for refinement rather than the snarling aggression of SRT models, delivering around 471 hp with a deep, cultured rumble. It moves a heavy luxury SUV with a relaxed, bottomless surge of torque.

The Hemi name dates to Chrysler's 1951 hemispherical-head V8, and this 6.4-liter '392' descends from the modern Apache Hemi family. It powers the revived Grand Wagoneer, a nameplate first launched in 1963 as Jeep's original full-size luxury SUV.

The 'Hemi' nickname comes from the hemispherical combustion chambers, which allow larger valves and more complete combustion for strong high-rpm breathing.
In the Grand Wagoneer it is detuned for smoothness, the opposite philosophy to the same block's hard-edged SRT applications in the Durango and Grand Cherokee.
