Elk Grove Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram · Serving Sacramento
Jeep's full-size, three-row luxury SUV, now sold under one name in two lengths. Here is what changed when the Wagoneer name went away, how the regular and L models compare, what it tows, and what's new for 2027.
Starting with the 2026 model year, Jeep stopped selling a separate Wagoneer. Every model is now a Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and the base Grand Wagoneer trim takes the place the Wagoneer used to fill. The Series I, II and III names are gone too, replaced by trim names such as Limited and Summit. If you're comparing a 2025 Wagoneer with a newer Grand Wagoneer, our Wagoneer vs Grand Wagoneer comparison walks through the differences.
The 2026 update also brought a new upright front end with an illuminated seven-slot grille and chrome-free styling. The Wagoneer S is a different vehicle: a midsize, two-row electric SUV, not a version of the Grand Wagoneer.
Both lengths share the same engine, interior and trim choices. The L adds a longer wheelbase and much more room behind the third row, which matters if you'll regularly fill all three rows and still need luggage space.
| Grand Wagoneer | Grand Wagoneer L | |
|---|---|---|
| Length | 216.1 in | 228.1 in |
| Wheelbase | 123.0 in | 130.0 in |
| Cargo behind 3rd row | 27.9 cu ft | 42.6 cu ft |
| Fuel tank | 26.5 gal | 30.5 gal |
| Turning diameter | 40.2 ft | 42.2 ft |
| Max towing (4x4, 3.92 axle) | 10,000 lb | 9,860 lb |
Both are 83.6 in wide (94.0 in with mirrors). The regular model is the easier fit in a home garage and a tight parking lot; the L is the better road-trip SUV for a full family and their bags.
| 2026 trims | 2027 trims |

| Limited (Altitude package available) | Limited |
| Upland package (regular length) | Upland |
| Limited Reserve | Overland New |
| Summit (Obsidian package available) | Summit |

| 85th Anniversary Edition (midyear) | — |
The Altitude and Obsidian appearance packages carry over on select 2027 trims. Equipment can vary by year, so ask us to confirm the features on a specific vehicle.
There is one engine: a 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six rated at 420 hp and 468 lb-ft, paired with an 8-speed automatic. The High Output version offered before 2026 has been dropped, and there's no V8. Jeep recommends 89-octane fuel, with 87 acceptable.
The 10,000-lb maximum requires 4x4 and the 3.92 axle that comes with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, which also adds trailer brake control, sway control, trailer light monitoring and a Class IV hitch. Without it, ratings run from 5,770 to 6,210 lb. That gap matters if you plan to pull a boat to Folsom Lake or a camper up Highway 50 to Tahoe.
| Configuration (2026) | 3.55 axle | 3.92 axle |

| Grand Wagoneer L 2WD | 5,960 lb | — |
| Grand Wagoneer L 4x4 | 5,770 lb | 9,860 lb |
Estimated payload is 1,300 lb, and passengers and gear count against it. Jeep lists 2027 towing at up to 10,000 lb. Read more in our Grand Wagoneer towing guide.
| EPA mpg (city / hwy / combined) | 2026 | 2027 |

The 2027 highway ratings are lower than 2026, so compare the window sticker for the year you're buying.
Seven seats are standard, with second-row captain's chairs. An eight-seat layout with a second-row bench is optional. Legroom is 40.9 in up front, 42.7 in in the second row and 36.6 in in the third row, so adults can ride in the back row. Cargo space is 70.8 cu ft behind the second row and 116.7 cu ft behind the first row.

The Grand Wagoneer's 10,000-lb rating is the highest of the group when properly equipped, and its combined EPA rating beats the Navigator's. Want something smaller? Look at the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
2027 models can be ordered now. Jeep hasn't published a full 2027 spec sheet, so specs on this page come from the 2026 model unless noted.
Not under that name. Starting with the 2026 model year, Jeep sells every model as the Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and the base Grand Wagoneer trim fills the Wagoneer's old spot in the lineup.
Every 2026 and 2027 Grand Wagoneer uses a 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six rated at 420 hp and 468 lb-ft, with an 8-speed automatic.
Up to 10,000 lb on a 4x4 with the 3.92 axle from the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, or 9,860 lb for the Grand Wagoneer L. Without that package, ratings run from 5,770 to 6,210 lb.
The L is 12 in longer (228.1 vs 216.1 in) on a 7-in longer wheelbase. It has 42.6 cu ft behind the third row versus 27.9 cu ft, a 30.5-gal fuel tank versus 26.5 gal, and a 9,860-lb max tow rating versus 10,000 lb.
Seven is standard, with second-row captain's chairs. Eight is available with a second-row bench.
The 2027 Grand Wagoneer 4x4 is EPA-rated at 17 city / 21 highway / 18 combined mpg, and the L 4x4 at 16 / 20 / 18. The 2026 4x4 is rated 17 / 23 / 19.
A new Overland trim with air suspension and 22-in wheels replaces the Limited Reserve, and the 85th Anniversary Edition is gone. The engine and transmission carry over.
No. It has Active Driving Assist, a hands-on system, along with adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go.
Yes, with the optional Quadra-Trac II 4x4 system, which adds a 2.64:1 low range and Rock mode. The standard Quadra-Trac I system is full-time 4x4 without low range.
