2022 Grand Wagoneer vs Lincoln Navigator
2022 Grand Wagoneer vs Lincoln Navigator
By now, you’ve most likely heard that the Grand Wagoneer is returning to the automotive industry for the first time since 1991. As a luxury extension of the Jeep brand, the Grand Wagoneer creates a luxurious feeling while also showing off an adventurous spirit. The Grand Wagoneer has joined the super-competitive luxury SUV class and climbed its way to the top. It competes well with the 2022 Lincoln Navigator, as both offer luxurious appearance and comfort features. Here at Northland Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we want to help you decide which one is right for you, so we’ve taken both of these spectacular luxury SUVs and put them side by side with their best attributes on display. Continue reading below to learn more and see how these two vehicles stack up against each other.
2022 Grand Wagoneer Power & Handling
The 2022 Grand Wagoneer boasts 471 horsepower and 455 lb-ft of torque from a naturally-aspirated 6.4L V8 engine. This provides drivers with a maximum towing capacity of up to 9,960 pounds. The engine is mated to the robust TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission that drives all four wheels with one of three legendary 4×4 systems; Quadra-Trac I, Quadra-Trac II, and Quadra-Drive II, with an electronic limited-slip rear differential. Each system uses a network of sensors to detect wheel slip and counteract it by redistributing torque to the axle with the most traction. Quadra-Trac I does this with a single-speed transfer case, while Quadra-Trac II and Quadra-Drive II both employ a two-speed transfer case with high/low settings. In addition, the 4×4 system can be altered by the driver to handle specific road surfaces with Selec-Terrain traction management, which offers Auto, Sport, Snow, Rock, and Sand/Mud modes.
2022 Lincoln Navigator Power & Handling
Under the hood of the 2022 Lincoln Navigator is a 3.5L twin-turbocharged V6 engine that pushes out 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, allowing drivers to haul up to 8,700 pounds. Unlike the Grand Wagoneer, the Navigator comes standard with rear-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive, however, is optional for all trim levels while standard on the top-shelf Black Label trim. In addition, to offer better handling and give drivers more control, 4WD Navigator variants offer Lincoln drive modes that adjust the vehicle’s systems to provide the best possible traction for the selected road conditions.
2022 Grand Wagoneer Features & Design
The Grand Wagoneer offers a classic appearance with an iconic seven-slot grille, an A-line creating a silhouette, and a two-spoke steering wheel, all paying homage to Jeep’s 80-year history. Other exterior features include a hands-free liftgate, heated/power-adjustable side mirrors, premium tinted rear windows, a three-pane panoramic moonroof, LED lighting, a proximity key, and 20-inch alloy wheels. Upon entering, you’ll find three rows of Nappa leather seating, second-row captain’s chairs with a center console, and a three-seat third-row bench, offering room for seven occupants. Other interior features include 24-way power-adjustable front seats, four-zone automatic HVAC, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, heated/cooled front seats, and advanced driver assists. Some Grand Wagoneer technology features include a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 12-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen, a 10.1-inch climate control touchscreen, a wireless charging pad, a 10.25-inch rear climate control touchscreen, cordless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a 19-speaker McIntosh Labs audio system, and more.
2022 Lincoln Navigator Features & Design
There certainly is no lack of luxury to be found in the 2022 Lincoln Navigator. Some standard exterior features that compete well with those of the Grand Wagoneer include 20-inch alloy wheels, twin chrome-tipped exhaust outlets, a power hands-free liftgate, LED lighting, and more. Getting inside the 2022 Navigator, you’ll find simulated leather upholstery, second-row captain’s chairs, heated/ventilated front seats, 10-way power-adjustable front seats, three-zone automatic climate control, and a 14-speaker Revel audio system.
