LAST seen in 1993, Jeep’s Wagoneer is back and big in every sense of the word, including the amount of technology found inside.

The classic luxury SUV brand has multiple touchscreens, support for both Apple and Android entertainment systems and even video streaming via Amazon’s Fire TV.

The Grand Wagoneer packs up to no less than four touch displays to fill out that enormous dash. That includes a 12.3-inch digital dash cluster, along with a 12-inch infotainment system. The latter uses the latest version of Chrysler/Jeep’s Uconnect 5, and also supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Sitting directly below that is a 10.3-inch display that lets you control the climate and seats. On the regular Wagoneer, you get smaller 10.3-inch and 10.1-inch displays for the digital dash and infotainment display, respectively.

Those are just for the driver. The front passenger gets their own (optional) 10.3-inch touchscreen that allows them to watch movies, monitor the vehicle and more. Rear passengers get a pair of matching 10.1-inch displays, also optional. All three of those screens let passengers control navigation and media, monitor the external cameras, and play your own content via the aforementioned Android Auto/Apple CarPlay or Uconnect.

You can also stream video using Amazon’s Fire TV for Auto with Alexa, giving passengers access to Amazon’s library of Prime Video shows. You’ll also be able to play games, use apps and access Alexa on the road through Fire TV for Auto.

The rest of the interior is a lux as you’d expect in such an SUV, equipped with what Jeep calls an “American premium” design. You’re coddled with wood, aluminum and leather throughout and the Grand Wagoneer has 24-way adjustable power seats, with lumbar support and memory settings. The Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer offer 2.6 and 3.3 square meters of storage space, respectively.

Pricing starts at just under US$60,000, but to get all the tech bells and whistles, you’ll pay up to US$105,995 for the Grand Wagoneer Series III. The Grand Wagoneer and Wagoneer are essentially the same vehicle, with some key differences that account for the roughly US$30,000 discrepancy in price. Outside, the pricier model gets more chrome accents, different LED lighting, more pronounced fender flares, electronic side steps, and a black roof.

In reviving the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer names after three decades off the market, Jeep is just the latest automaker to capitalize on nostalgia for old models. The new Ford Bronco, Toyota Supra, Land Rover Defender, Jeep Gladiator, and GMC Hummer EV are all throwbacks to long-discontinued vehicles.

The 2022 Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer are scheduled to hit dealerships in the second half of 2021.(SD-Agencies)
