"I love the presence the Wagoneer has," senior editor Aaron Gold said. "It amazes me—it feels lượt thích Jeep has been competing with the Suburban for 20 years rather than being brand new to the game. It"s such a well-executed product."


The Wagoneer L costs substantially less than its Grand Wagoneer L counterpart—yep, there"s a long version of that Escalade competitor—and although this interior lacks wood trim, its seat adjustment controls are on the seat instead of the door, và there"s no "Grand" lettering, it does not look cheap.

The Wagoneer L has Ram truck underpinnings, so it"s hardy và can tow up lớn 10,000 pounds but is also highly maneuverable with light & direct steering. Being a Jeep, the Wagoneer L also handled the off-road course with ease, slicing through the sand & making easy work of the frame-twister section.


Under the hood is the new Hurricane engine, the last new internal combustion engine family from Stellantis in the transition lớn electric vehicles. In the L, the 3.0-liter twin-turbo I-6 engine makes 420 hp và 468-lb-ft of torque in "low-output" tune; the Grand Wagoneer L gets more power still. It"s paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, và acceleration is strong off the line. Shifts are clean, quick, & crisp. Unexpectedly, the big L has wonderful brake and throttle response.


"I can"t believe this is the "low-output" engine," associate editor Alex Leanse said. "The fact that it moves such a large vehicle so adeptly indicates the depth of its engineering excellence. That low-end torque response is similar to lớn a V-8, and midrange torque seems more than sufficient."


"The Hurricane is excellent," digital director Erik Johnson said. "ICE engines are this century"s version of the horse, but they won"t leave the tiệc nhỏ without a fight if this one is any indication. It"s super smooth, has lots of low-end punch, and sounds nice."


The combination of a new vehicle và a new powertrain can be hard to lớn pull off in the first model year, but Jeep has a solid new entry with the Wagoneer L. "It"s hard to believe how good this SUV is," Brady said.
