Molto vicina come stile alla Wagoneer S.

 

dietro è veramente sinuoso, anche se a essere del tutto onesti non è così filante come la vecchia credenza di mia nonna

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Secondo me migliora e non poco con questo facelift, anche se quel posteriore tagliato con l'accetta . . . 🫣

Jeep abbandonerà il Wagoneer, unificando tutta la gamma del suv full-size sotto il "Grand Wagoneer", che sarà disponibile anche in versioni più economiche per coprire tale vuoto.

Il GW era disponibile in tre allestimenti "Series I, II, III" che saranno abbandonati per i più convenzionali Limited, Summit ecc.

Questa decisione è linea con la strategia di Jeep riguardo la semplificazione della propria gamma modelli.

Bello il muso in stile Wagoneer S però non c'entra più niente con il resto della macchina. Muso filante e sportivo fiancata e coda da Panzer.

PRESENTATA!

La versione REEV della Wagoneer sarà disponibile a breve! Parola del CEO…

Jeep® CEO Says Grand Wagoneer 4xe Is Right Around The Corner

Jeep Focuses On Quality Before Rolling Out Electrified Variant

Jeep® is entering a critical phase in its electrification strategy, and the timing couldn’t be more relevant. As fuel prices continue to climb across the U.S. and Canada, the brand is preparing to introduce a solution that blends electric efficiency with traditional long-range capability. According to Jeep® CEO Bob Broderdorf, the highly anticipated Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4xe equipped with a range-extending electric vehicle (REEV) powertrain is almost ready for prime time.

During a recent media discussion, I had the opportunity to ask Broderdorf directly about the status of the Grand Wagoneer 4xe REEV. His response was clear and direct:

“REEV is obviously right around the corner. It’s the same exact problem as the Cherokee with the Recon. The reality is, [we] got to get the volume up, [we] got to get that quality and the speed on the line in the same space. Then we can add the REEV in.”

That statement perfectly sums up where Jeep stands today. The technology is ready, the demand is building, but execution remains the priority.

Why The Delay Matters

While Jeep clearly has a strong product on its hands, Broderdorf’s comments highlight a shift in how Stellantis is approaching launches under CEO Antonio Filosa.

Instead of rushing vehicles to market, the focus has shifted to getting things right the first time—something that hasn’t always been the case in recent years. The brand is currently prioritizing production stability and quality at the Warren Truck Assembly Plant, where the Grand Wagoneer is built.

This means ensuring that both the existing twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter HURRICANE I6-powered models and the upcoming REEV variants can be produced efficiently on the same line without compromising quality.

When Broderdorf referenced the situation with the Cherokee and Recon, he was pointing to a broader production challenge—not a specific problem with either vehicle. Jeep is currently launching multiple new models at once, including the all-new Jeep Cherokee hybrid and the all-electric Jeep Recon, which will be built on the same line at the company’s Toluca Assembly Plant. The Cherokee is a high-volume, core SUV for the brand, so Jeep is prioritizing getting its production fully dialed in first, focusing on build quality, supplier consistency, and assembly speed before expanding further.

At the same time, the Recon introduces added complexity as an all-new electric off-roader. It brings new technology, components, and manufacturing demands that require additional time to properly scale. Because of that, Jeep has pushed the Recon back slightly to avoid overwhelming production and risking quality issues. In simple terms, Cherokee needs to be solid and consistent first, while Recon depends on that foundation being stable before it can be added into the mix.

This same approach is now being applied to future products like the Grand Wagoneer 4xe. Under Filosa, Stellantis is taking a more disciplined approach—making sure plants hit volume, quality, and speed targets before introducing more complex powertrains. Instead of rushing vehicles to market, the company is focusing on getting launches right the first time, even if that means slight delays.

A Smarter Take On Electrification

Unlike a traditional battery-electric vehicle (BEV), the REEV system takes a different approach. It uses electric motors to drive the wheels at all times, delivering that instant torque and smooth acceleration EV buyers expect. But instead of relying solely on a battery pack, it adds a gasoline-powered generator to keep the system charged when needed.

In simple terms, it’s an EV without the stress of finding a charger every few hundred miles.

For a full-size luxury SUV like the Grand Wagoneer, that’s a big deal. Buyers in this segment expect capability—whether it’s towing, long-distance travel, or hauling a full load of passengers. The REEV setup answers those needs while still offering the benefits of electric driving for daily use.

Performance is another major highlight. The upcoming Grand Wagoneer 4xe REEV is expected to deliver around 647 horsepower and 620 lb.-ft. of torque, making it the most powerful version of the nameplate to date. Jeep is targeting a 0-60 mph time of about five seconds, which is impressive for a three-row SUV of this size.

On top of that, the total range is expected to exceed 500 miles (800 km), combining electric driving capability with extended gas-assisted operation.

Perfect Timing With Rising Fuel Costs

The bigger story here is timing. Gas prices have been creeping upward again, and consumers are feeling it—especially those driving larger SUVs. That creates a perfect window for a vehicle like the Grand Wagoneer 4xe to make its debut.

For buyers who want the space, luxury, and capability of a Grand Wagoneer but are hesitant about fuel costs or going fully electric, this powertrain could be the ideal middle ground.

It offers electric driving for short trips, reduced fuel consumption overall, and the peace of mind that comes with a gasoline backup system. That combination could make it one of the most compelling offerings in the full-size SUV segment.

What Happens Next

Based on conversations with dealer sources, there is optimism that the Grand Wagoneer 4xe could arrive before the end of summer, assuming production targets are met. Pricing hasn’t been officially announced yet, but Jeep has previously indicated it will be “very competitive” within the segment.

For now, all eyes remain on Jeep as it works to finalize production and bring this new technology to market.

If Broderdorf’s comments are any indication, the wait won’t be much longer—and given the current market conditions, the Grand Wagoneer 4xe might be arriving at exactly the right time.

Ma se non riescono nemmeno a mettere in produzione il gemello RAM. Sinceramente non ne vedo tutta quest'utilità.
