The 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer are nothing alike – or are they? Looking at the new Grand Cherokee and the totally revamped Grand Wagoneer, it’s easy to see how someone could confuse these two SUVs. Here are the four biggest differences between the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs the 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

This may not seem like a surprise; they’re different SUVs, of course they look different. Yet there are more similarities to their appearance than one might think. The Jeep Grand Cherokee has been redesigned and its new exterior looks an awful lot like that of the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. 

Yet the Grand Wagoneer is slightly larger than the Grand Cherokee. And don’t be confused – the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer is the same size as the grand Wagoneer. The Grand Wagoneer also has slightly larger wheels, ranging from 18-22-inches to the Grand Cherokee’s 18-21. In addition; the Grand Wagoneer can hold up to 8 passengers to the Grand Cherokee’s 7. 

3. The Grand Wagoneer has a more powerful engine

It’s probably not a surprise that the larger vehicle has a more powerful engine. The 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer has a 5.7-liter V8 with etorque. This puts out 392 hp and 404 lb-ft of torque.
