About the 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

The 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is a suv that earns a Carivo score of 6.7/10 — rated Good. Its strongest dimension is Value at 8.7/10, while Performance at 7.2/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a capable but unexceptional suv — stronger alternatives exist if you're willing to shop the segment carefully.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. The reliability picture is solid rather than spectacular: 8.3/10, which puts it comfortably above the class median. Safety lands at 8.1/10 — solid, though some rivals offer more advanced driver-assist features as standard. Confirm official results for your trim at nhtsa.gov/ratings.

With 7.2/10 for performance, this is a car tuned for daily driving rather than excitement — perfectly capable on the commute, unremarkable on a back road. At 7.6/10 for technology, the infotainment and driver-assist package does its job without setting benchmarks — check which features cost extra on lower trims.

Priced from $86,475–$100,342, 15 MPG, seating 8, the Jeep Grand Wagoneer sits in the luxury tier of the suv market. Its value score of 8.7/10 confirms that the price reflects the quality — you're getting a lot for your money here. At 4 years old, it's worth checking whether a newer generation or refresh has addressed any weaker dimensions — compare it to the current model year before buying.

Verdict: The 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer sits in the middle of the field. Worth a look if it fits a specific need; otherwise use our compare tool against the segment leaders first.
