2022 Jeep Wagoneer: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The big news for 2022 is the Wagoneer’s return as an all-new full-size, three-row SUV. It launches on a new truck-style platform with a standard 5.7-liter V8, a large navigation touchscreen, and an upscale, family-focused cabin.
About the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer
WS generation, first model year of the revived modern Wagoneer (all-new for 2022).
Jeep positions the Wagoneer as a premium family SUV rather than a stripped-down workhorse. The emphasis is on big three-row space, comfort for long trips, strong towing ability, and real Jeep-brand capability when equipped with 4WD. Against rivals such as the Tahoe, Expedition, and Yukon, the Wagoneer’s pitch is a richer cabin, standard V8 power in 2022, and a more distinctive premium-American feel without stepping all the way up to the pricier Grand Wagoneer.
The 2022 Wagoneer is positioned as a roomy family hauler with strong towing ability and more cabin luxury than a typical mainstream full-size SUV. Every trim has V8 power, a 10.1-inch touchscreen, and heated and ventilated leather-trimmed front seats; Series II adds more driver assistance, while Series III brings heated second-row seats, a power-reclining third row, and a head-up display. Carbide versions add a darker, more distinctive appearance treatment.
