2023 Jeep Wagoneer

Stating that its ultimate plan is for the new 2022 Wagoneer to become a distinct and very unique brand, Jeep is targeting a much more upscale clientele than it has with other Jeep models. The full-size, three-row Wagoneer is available in Series I, Series II and Series III.

Performance

The Wagoneer is powered by a 392-hp, 5.7L Hemi V8 with the eTorque mild hybrid system. The engine is paired with a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission. When equipped properly, Jeep claims best-in-class towing capabilities of up to 10,000 pounds. Four-wheel drivetrains only for the Canadian market; buyers are offered a choice of Quadra-Trac I, Quadra-Trac II or Quadra-Drive II setups. Throw in Selec-Terrain — standard with Quadra-Trac II and Quadra-Drive II — and its five settings (Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow and Sand/Mud) and the Wagoneer will be able to tackle more than cottage roads.

Practicality

Seating for up to eight is available on all models and includes a third row — a first for the nameplate — one not just for kids. Getting to the back is via the second-row seat’s power release Tip n’ Slide function, which creates more space for passengers to get to their seat. The seat also reclines and folds flat. Front- and second-row captain’s chairs — another first time offering — are available on Wagoneer.

Canadian Pricing

Prices range from $69,995 to $85,995 for the Wagoneer. An available 10.25-inch passenger screen provides the front passenger with dynamic touchscreen control at their fingertips. This screen has four major functions: Co-Pilot (navigation, device management), entertainment (via HDMI or rear-seat entertainment control), Fire TV for Auto and the ability to view the exterior vehicle cameras. Passenger screens in both the front and rear feature an HDMI plug, which lets occupants connect their phone or tablet, turning the touchscreen into a mirrored extension of their device, allowing Internet searches, music and app use to project through the new and more powerful Uconnect 5 system.
