The Series II has got all the comfort and convenience with the heat and ventilation functions at seats. The enriching musical vibes with the Alpine 9-Speaker System appear to be more than enough. The accents and trim variations of leather upholstery are also impressive in their appeal. Even the safety pursuit is top-notch right from the base configuration. Therefore, this trim is the one to choose from in all available formats.

"Handling is equally exceptional, with light, quick-ratio steering that is communicative and responsive." -cars.com

The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer has been given a 5.7L V-8 engine in pairing with an eTorque 48-volt mild hybrid system that kicks in 392 hp and 404 lb-ft of torque. It is hooked up with an 8-speed automatic transmission in both RWD and 4X4 configurations. However, the 4x4 is $3,000 costlier than its 4x2 counterpart.

Regarding its handling, the 2022 Wagoneer can be attached with Quadra-Lift air suspensions that maintain the platform height from the ground and wheel alignment. The 5 different driving modes include Sport, Rock, Snow, Auto, and Sand/Mud that change the throttle inputs and steering response that further makes it a versatile off-roader and city cruiser simultaneously. 

As far as 0-60 MPH acceleration is concerned, the Jeep Wagoneer takes 6.7 seconds with a top speed of 117 MPH. The quarter-mile timing, meanwhile, ticks to be 15.1 seconds. Also, its 14.9-inch front and 14.8-inch rear disc brakes are mated with ABS and Brake Assist to keep the braking distance less than 200 ft while 70-0 MPH.      

Despite being$15,000 more expensive, the Wagoneer is 0.8 seconds slower than the Armada in 0-60 MPH due to a power deficit of 8 hp. On the other hand, Chevy Tahoe lags behind the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer by 0.8 seconds in both quarter-mile and 0-60 MPH. However, it is Ford Expedition that has a 15 MPH higher top speed on average than the rest. 

"With two V-8s and three tons to push around, the Wagoneer guzzles fuel." - The Car Connection

The 2022 Wagoneer offers a combined fuel economy of 18 MPG that increases to 22 MPG on the highways. And the 26.5-gallon fuel tank helps the Wagoneer to have an overall range coverage of nearly 477 miles.

Based on the comparison, the 2022 Wagoneer is 3 MPG more efficient than the Armada with which it tends to go 60 miles extra. This gap widens to 69 miles when Wagoneer is matched against the range practicality of the Chevy Tahoe.  

"Jeep has spent much effort making sure the Wagoneer interior is a special place with cut-above styling and premium levels of luxury." - Kelley Blue Book

The interior of the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer has been crafted with opulence and contrasting accents. Two interior trims of Global Black and Seat are in sync with Nappa Leather Upholstery Seats inside the cabin. Along with that comes the 8-way power adjustable front seats with memory, power heating and ventilation for easy snuggling.

The 2022 Wagoneer also gets standard 2nd-row seat heating but that remains exclusive for the Series III trim. There is a generous cargo space of 27.4 cu-ft as well that increases to 116.7 cu-ft at max. Apart from this, the other high tech-ends like the 360 Surround Camera and Head-Up Display can also be availed of with Convenience Group at $3,295.

As per data, the Jeep Wagoneer offers 21 cu-ft more cargo space than the Nissan Armada behind the 2nd row. Moreover, it has 3-inch extra shoulder room in 3rd-row and 2-inch more headroom in the 2nd row than the Tahoe. However, the latter gets a 2 cu-ft bigger cargo volume than the Wagoneer. For the infotainment unit, the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer is incorporated with Uconnect 5 Nav with 10.1-Inch Touchscreen.

The rhythmic reverberation is managed by an Alpine 9-Speaker System with Subwoofer as standard. This can further be upgraded to MX950 McIntosh Entertainment System with 19 Speakers in the Series III trim for that better nudge.

It includes the standard Bright White, Baltic Gray Metallic at $595, Silver Zynith at $595, and many more with which it subjects to customization.

Alongside these, the tri-pane panoramic sunroof can be installed on top with the Premium Group that costs $5,495. The roof is also bolted with an adjustable roof-rail crossbar with the same package.   

The Jeep Wagoneer is heavier than Expedition by 500 lbs that increases over 600 lbs against the Tahoe.

"The Wagoneer also comes packed to the brim with luxe materials, a host of active safety features, and a cutting-edge infotainment system." - cars.usnews

The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer has not received any safety rating from the NHTSA and IIHS yet. However, it is based on the same RAM DT platform as that of the RAM 1500 meaning a 5-star NHTSA and a "Good" IIHS rating are going to be inherent. The other safety features to complement this structural integrity includes the names such as:

• Active Lane-Management System
• Blind-Spot and Rear Cross-Path Detection
• Electronic Stability Control
• Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning Plus
• Adaptive Cruise Control

2022 Jeep Wagoneer vs 2022 Nissan Armada 

The 2022 Jeep Wagoneer comes with a far better range coverage over the Nissan Armada but that takes a toll on its performance curve. As a result, Armada outclasses the Wagoneer in acceleration and top speed parameters. In terms of spaciousness, the Wagoneer offers impressive interior space and cargo volume that remains missing in the Armada. Therefore, Jeep gets the preference here.

2022 Jeep Wagoneer vs 2022 Ford Expedition

The 2022 Ford Expedition is a performance phenomenon when pitted against the Wagoneer but it lacks range practicality at the same time. Even seating roominess and space management in the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer takes an edge over the former. On the whole, the Wagoneer appears to be a better proposition. 

2022 Jeep Wagoneer vs 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe

The 2022 Chevy Tahoe has better cargo space inside the cabin but except for that, it lags behind the 2022 Jeep Wagoneer in every section. Be it performance or range coverage or interior accent and trim, the Wagooner is simply way ahead of the Tahoe. Hence, the Jeep should be given consideration in the first place. 

Without a doubt, the coming 2022 Jeep Wagoneer is an asset in terms of its abilities, performance, off-road touches, and interior engagement. The exterior appeal is simply in line with what is being offered inside and around the cabin. Though it is price a little higher than its rivals but that extra investment is surely worth it.
