2024 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4xe: Review, Specs & Price – During its 4xe Day event, Jeep focused on three all-electric models. The Jeep Grand Wagoneer was briefly shown at the event. Jim Morrison announced the vehicle. We learned some minor details about the Jeep luxury vehicle.
Review
The 4xe Day event only displayed the battery-electric cars that will debut in 2023/2024. Jeep describes the 4xe Day as “the first phase of their product offensive”. Morrison stated that by the year 2025, our entire lineup would be electric, with four of them competing for the top of the market.
A charging port is shown on the front driver’s fender. This indicates that it will be an electric hybrid. Currently, the Jeep Grand Cherokee plug-in is located here. Jim says the Grand Wagoneer 4xe is capable of going more than 500 kilometers on a single gas tank. The Grand Wagoneer 4xe can go 480 miles between New York and Toronto in Canada on a single charge.
Jeep is likely to combine the 3.0-liter turbocharged I6 “Hurricane” engine with an electric motor and a fully automated transmission in order to produce a large amount of power, but also a limited range for an all-electric vehicle.
Tests have been conducted on the hybrid system in the 2.0-liter I4 turbocharged engines in Jeep Wrangler 4xe, and Grand Cherokee 4xe. The hybrid system in those cars generates 375 horsepower, and 470 pounds-feet torque. This should be enough to power a full-size SUV. The total power of the hybrid Grand Wagoneer could easily exceed 500 horsepower.
It will take inspiration from Jeep’s gasoline models, but will also incorporate EV features like a grille that lights up. The Wagoneer EV has a futuristic appearance, while still being recognizable as a Jeep. Jeep says that production will begin in 2024. We’ll know more when the SUV is launched.
Wagoneer EV 2024 is one of the two new electric SUVs to hit the North American market, alongside the Jeep Recon. The Wagoneer will not be a plug-in hybrid like the Grand Cherokee 4xe or Jeep Wrangler 4xe. It is purely battery-powered with a range estimated at 400 miles. Jeep is expecting a performance of 600 horsepower, which will allow the electric SUV to reach 60 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds. Jeep Wagoneer EV’s introduction is a significant milestone for its off-road division, as it expects EVs will make up 50% of its sales in the U.S. 2024 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4xe
Engine
The new Grand Wagoneer L long wheelbase comes with a brand-new engine. The Hurricane is a 510-hp, twin-turbo inline-six with an automatic eight-speed transmission. It also comes equipped with an all-wheel drive. The 6.4-liter engine with 471 hp is available on all models except the Grand Wagoneer L. This powertrain comes as standard in the Grand Wagoneer L. In our testing it was the new I-6 that beat out the V-8, accelerating the Grand Wagoneer L from 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds. The Grand Wagoneer, like its rivals in the domestic market, uses body-on-frame underpinnings. In this case, they are derived from Ram 1500 pickup trucks. The Jeep has an independent rear suspension, not the solid axle of the Ram 1500 truck, giving it a better ride. The Grand Wagoneer, along with several different four-wheel drive systems, offers an adjustable air suspension. It can be raised or lowered by up to half an inch. The Grand Wagoneer also has a 10-inch ground clearance and can tow up to 9860 pounds. It is capable of towing water for two feet. The Grand Wagoneer’s relaxed, refined ride is a pleasure on highways. However, the pickup-truck-style structure can cause a bumpy ride on rougher pavement. The SUV’s body roll is noticeable on curves and it makes the vehicle feel less agile.
Release Date and Price
Jeep has not released a price for the Wagoneer EV or detailed the standard and option features of the SUV. It’s expected to be more expensive than the gas-powered version, but it is likely that it will come in similar trim levels.
