Thanks to the leaked images from Jeep's dealer meeting, we have got our first glimpse of the new 2018 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Arriving in 2019, the three-row crossover SUV looks much like a redesigned 2018 Cherokee/Wrangler Concept car.

Exterior:

The 2018 Grand Wagoneer is expected to have a semi-modular chassis design, which is inspired from the Grand Cherokee. The new design will not only enable the car to support the two/three seat rows but will also provide the SUV good on-road and off-road handling capabilities. AutoBlog reports that the car will also have new air suspensions that will provide a better ground clearance and will enable the car to have a varied ride height.

Expected to come with all-season tires, the 2018 Grand Wagoneer will overcome almost environment conditions. The new generation hybrid is all set to have Chrome trim, LED lights, and larger wheel bases to compete with other suvs on the roads.

Interior:

The 2018 SUV will have some of the finest high-tech adjustment in its interior. The analog gauges have been replaced with a big TFT and an LCD large touch screen has been fitted with Chrysler's infotainment system that also acts as a navigation system.

The Grand Wagoneer will feature large panoramic sunroof, new massaging seats with leather covers, new entertainment system and double screens fitted for the back seat travelers. Wood and Aluminum trims have been used to give the interior a fine finish. The car's interior can accommodate seven adults easily.

Engine, Specs, and Performance:

The 2018 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is expected to have a powerful 6.4 liter V8 HEMI Engine, capable of producing an output of 485 horsepower and a torque of 475 ppf. Another version might come with a 6.2 liter Hellcat engine giving an output of 600 horsepower and 550 lb.-ft. of torque.

Buyers concerned with the SUV's fuel economy can also opt for a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 engine, which has a power output of 240 hp and 420 ppf of torque. With a new ZF 8-speed automatic transmission system, the engine also offers an amazing acceleration of 0-60 mph in just about 8 seconds reaching a top speed of almost 130 mph.

Price and Release date:

Expected to have a price range between $80,000 and $100,000 due to engine capacity variations, the exact date of unveiling the 2018 Jeep Grand Wagoneer has not been announced officially. It is however expected to be launched either at the end of 2017 or in the first half of 2018.
