Automotive manufacturer Jeep has filed a patent for the Grand Wagoneer in India, signaling a potential addition to its current domestic lineup that already includes the Compass, Meridian, Wrangler, and Grand Cherokee. Additionally, the brand is considering the next-generation Compass—which may feature petrol, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and EV options to replace the current iteration—alongside the upcoming three-row Grand Wagoneer.
Exterior Design and Cabin Layout
The exterior styling of the Grand Wagoneer incorporates hammer-shaped daytime running lights, a prominent front grille, a somewhat boxy overall profile, and dual-tone alloy wheels. Tyre sizes span from 18 to 22 inches. Inside the cabin, the dashboard is anchored by a triple-screen setup, complemented by two glass roofs, including a dual-pane panoramic unit. The vehicle features dual side flaps, indicating either a plug-in hybrid or a range extender electric vehicle powertrain.
As the model prepares for a rollout in the United States around late 2025 or early 2027, Jeep USA has designated the SUV as the nation's inaugural REEV. In this configuration, the internal combustion engine does not drive the wheels directly; instead, it operates solely to run a generator motor that feeds the substantial battery pack.
Powertrain and Performance Specifications
Under the hood, the Grand Wagoneer REEV pairs a 3.6-litre V6 engine with a 92kWh battery and a 174bhp generator. This setup delivers a cumulative output of 638bhp and 840Nm of torque. Performance figures indicate a 0-96kmph acceleration time of five seconds, alongside an estimated driving range of roughly 805km.
