The 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is a thirsty machine as the EPA rating of 15 mpg combined is lower than many full-size rivals.

Jeep is reviving the Wagoneer nameplate, and EPA has revealed the fuel economy estimates, which are somewhat unimpressive. Sad that it doesn't have wood panelling, and the starting price for the 2022 Grand Wagoneer at $98,000 can't be deemed inexpensive. With all the optional specifications included, the sticker price can reach upward of $110k.

Dont be surprised at the fuel economy; what else do you expect from a full-size luxury SUV. The flagship 4WD Grand Wagoneer is rated by EPA at 13/18/15 mpg city/highway/combined, whereas the standard two-wheel-drive Grand Wagoneer returns a similar 13 /19 /15 mpg city/highway/combined, a little bit better on the freeways.

In contrast, the Lincoln Navigator RWD has been rated at 16/22/18 mpg, whereas its 4WD variant has 16/20/17 mpg. The Cadillac Escalade's EPA evaluations are 15/20/17 mpg with the RWD version, also 14/19/16 mpg for your FWD vehicle. These two are straight competitions to Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and, we can easily see, they're more efficient; with the Escalede, even better gas mileage is available from the diesel inline-six. 

Under the hood of the flagship Jeep, Grand Wagoneer sticks a 6.4-litre V8, generating 471 hp and 455 lb-ft of torque mated to TorqueFlight eight-speed automatic transmission, enough for a 0 to 60 time of fewer than 6 seconds. 

The 2022 Grand Cherokee interior is a superbly designed space with standard seating for seven draped in superior Nappa leather upholstery anywhere you look. Jeep has merged new and old - liberal use of handmade American Walnut timber is a distinct nod to its initial Wagoneer's extensive utilization of timber in its cabin; however, the collection of vibrant tone displays scattered across the cabin may be seen in today's SUV.

Jeep will employ the Uconnect 5C with a 12-inch infotainment screen and 12.3-inch gauge cluster and Android operating system as far as in-car entertainment specs are concerned. There's also a 10.25-inch front comfort display for the ventilation system.

With the debut of Amazon Fire TV for automobiles, rear occupants could also stream multiple sources of OTT platforms like Netflix, Hulu, YouTube and Twitch. Rear passengers can watch Fire TV on the back screens, while the front passenger can use a high-tech privacy filter that disables the driver from seeing what's on the front screen.
