Rear-wheel drive comes standard, but you can step up to four-wheel drive or go all-in with a two-speed transfer case for serious off-road capability.
For 2025, the Grand Wagoneer's engine, a "Hurricane" twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six, delivered 540 horsepower. It pairs with an eight-speed automatic.
