What is the Jeep Wagoneer?
The Wagoneer is a full-size Jeep SUV, with a name tied to the brand’s history of combining passenger comfort with four-wheel-drive utility. It sits at the spacious end of Jeep’s range, with room for people and luggage. The original Wagoneer helped establish that blend of comfort and capability; the modern model brings the name back in a large, technology-focused SUV.
Wagoneer generations
The SJ generation ran from 1990–1991. Jeep’s history describes the SJ as a long-running full-size vehicle, later renamed the Grand Wagoneer. From the beginning, the Wagoneer paired four-wheel drive with the comfort and convenience of a passenger car.
The WS generation spans 2022–2025 in the United States and Canada. Its return brought the Wagoneer name back as a modern large SUV, with an emphasis on passenger space and in-cabin technology.
