This heavily camouflaged test mule is our first look at the new Jeep Grand Wagoneer. When it eventually goes on sale, it’ll act as a premium rival for the likes of the Range Rover, BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne. However, Jeep remains unsure whether the SUV will be sold in either the European or UK markets.
Judging by the latest spy shots, the Grand Wagoneer will draw inspiration from Jeep’s current largest vehicle, the Grand Cherokee. It’ll share the same bluff front end, with a pair of slim LED headlamps and the brand trademark slatted radiator grille. At the rear, it’ll feature the Grand Cherokee’s rear lamps and tailgate design.
There’s easily enough space over the rear axle for a third seating row which, unlike in rivals like the Mercedes GLE and Land Rover Discovery, could be a full-sized bench seat rather than a pair of cramped jumper seats.
The Grand Wagoneer’s cabin design should also be lifted wholesale from the Jeep Grand Cherokee and, given its position as the brand’s flagship model, it’ll come with plenty of kit. Standard equipment should include an 8.4-inch infotainment screen, a digital instrument cluster, a Harman Kardon sound system and leather upholstery.
