Jeep is diving head-first into the premium luxury niche with its Grand Wagoneer Concept, and it?s not taking any chances either. The Grand Wagoneer Concept, according to Jeep, features a 4×4-capable, electric powertrain and a zero-emission, near-silent driving experience. Still, an all-electric Grand Wagoneer is not due to arrive for another couple of years.

Instead, we can expect a pair of plug-in hybrids when the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer arrive at dealerships next year. Despite this, Jeep is promising a class-leading off-road prowess with three available 4×4 systems, a Quadra-lift suspension system, an independent front and rear suspension, and the towing capability of a tank.
