Jeep unveiled the revived Wagoneer. There is no retro in it.
The FCA (FIAT-Chrysler) concern joined the fashion for brutal frame SUVs set by the latest generations of Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Suzuki Jimny and Ford Bronco — it presented a full-size «frame», especially for which it revived the historical name Jeep Wagoneer.

Formally, the novelty is shown in the status of a concept car, but the production car, which will be released in a few months, will be minimally different from this show model.

The prototype bears the prefix Grand in its name, since the most expensive version will be called that.

The revived Wagoneer is built on the platform of a full-size Ram 1500 pickup truck, sharing a chassis and suspension.

Moreover, the internal elements of the Wagonir’s body up to the B-pillar are unified with the frame of the Ram 1500 cab, but there is no identical external panel between them.

Unlike the new Bronco, whose exterior is crafted in a radical retro style, the Wagonir looks like a modern car, and there are no literal references to its progenitor.

The novelty has brutal proportions with a long «horizontal» hood and massive «carcass» body. Tapered LED headlights and the signature seven-slot grille are brought together here.

Interestingly, the slots of the grill are illuminated with LED-lamps — thus, it will not be difficult to identify Jeep even in the dark. The designers have endowed Wagoneer with a deliberately rude, masculine look — without style solutions that lighten the image.

Please note that the side windows here are visually separate — each has its own chrome edging, and the pillars are not painted black.

At the front, two chrome towing eyes are displayed, although they are recessed into the bumper — otherwise the solution would be contrary to the norms of safety for pedestrians. The trunk door of the car is one-piece, lifting.

The new Jeep Grand Wagoneer will be positioned as a premium product. Therefore, there are no areas of bare plastic in the cabin — everything is sheathed in leather.

The front panel has a T-shaped architecture, by eye there are no parts in common with the Ram 1500, although the relationship and proportions of the elements are very similar to the original pickup — most likely, the internal metal frame of the panel is the same.

There are as many as seven displays spread across the cabin — a combination of devices (12.3 «diagonal), a central media system (12.1»), an individual media system for the front passenger (10.3 «), a» comfort display «in the lower part of the console (10 , 3 inches) and three screens for rear passengers (each measuring just over 10 inches).

All interior elements are meticulously detailed in terms of design — this is also a sign of premium class. Physical switches are mostly made of brushed aluminum. Numerous decorative panels are also made from winged metal.

As for the engines of the new SUV, information is still scarce. FCA only indicates that the concept car is equipped with a plug-in hybrid powertrain. According to some reports, this is a new system, which includes a 5.7-liter petrol V8 with 450 hp, an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery.

The base version of the Wagonir is expected to be equipped with a less expensive «mild hybrid» unit — a 5.7-liter engine with an eTorque starter-generator. The same system is now being installed on the Ram 1500.

Jeep Wagoneer will also be offered three all-wheel drive systems and a fully independent Quadra Lift air suspension.

Jeep Wagoneer production will begin in 2021 at FCA’s Warren, Michigan plant. They also produce the Ram 1500. In the initial versions, the SUV will compete with the Chevrolet Tahoe and Ford Expedition, in the expensive Grand Wagoneer — with the Cadillac Escalade, Lincoln Navigator and Range Rover.

The base price of the car in the US will be $ 45,000, the expensive version of the Grand Wagoneer starts at $ 60,000.

Recall that in the original, the names Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer were used for purely consumer Jeep models that did not have military versions and were produced from 1962 to 1991.

Wagoners were produced in two- and four-door bodies and were very popular in North America.

The original model was produced, in fact, only in one generation SJ, although in 1984-1990 the Wagoneer brand was used for the special equipment of the Cherokee XJ, and the Grand Wagoneer brand in 1993 was used for the especially expensive version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ.
