Grand Wagoneer L comes with a Rail Cargo Management System of Jeep (adjustable lashing points integrated into the rear cargo area floor) as standard equipment.
The features of the Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer L model typically mirror those of the regular-length models, despite the Ls’ additional length and width (they weigh about 200 pounds more than their counterparts. not L) needs some minor changes. For example, the suspension has been revised, the steering-gearbox ratio has been changed, and the fuel tank is four gallons larger than the non-L Wagoneers’.
The Jeep Wagoneer L 2023 and Grand Wagoneer L are expected to arrive in dealerships in the second half of 2022.
CG says:
There are no big surprises here — since the moment the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer were first announced, the stretched-length versions will essentially be in pretty short order, and here they are. If you need more passenger/cargo space than the already huge Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer offers, the new 2023 Ls will suit your needs… and hopefully the engines will. The new Hurricane six turbochargers will live up to their promise of making these jumbos at least a little less thirsty at the fuel pump.
