2022 Models - Press Release Dates

[OutlawBeard]

So is 2022 supposed to be a mid cycle refresh? Is that why it’s been delayed till the end of the year?

Everything I’ve read so far has pointed at ‘23 being the MCE

Same here. Supposedly 22 will have a very short run.

I have been stalking this thread for a while and was hoping to order a 2022 with the uconnect 5, but then the recon package came out and ordered yesterday!

What’s the lead time on these 4XE? ordered mine today. I am assuming I will receive 2022.

4-6 weeks. 2022s aren't expected to start building till December. If you ordered today you'll get a 2021.

Although different vehicles, they’ve started to release 2022’s of two things - grand Cherokee and wagoneer I think. I’d find it interesting for them to postpone the wrangler but maybe.

I got offered a stupid deal on my HD truck so I’ll give it another week and then order.

Now trying to just decide do I do tons, 42’s,
Coil overs on a JLU or a Gladiator!

I herd they shut down some other lines to keep the Wrangler line moving.

I think the factory 35's could be a solid option , we'll probably never have a wide array of color choices unless you like gray lol, and I think uConnect5 is a 50/50 with a slight edge to happening because it also comes in an 8.4" screen so they wouldn't have to change anything else. Im definitely excited to see what the new MY brings.

You got the 35"s. Hope your correct about Uconnect5 showing up.

Supposedly Uconnect5 needs hardware also. Hopefully the it's just a new head unit that would fit the current dash.

Here is a quote from JD Powers.

"Because Uconnect 5 is completely new, current FCA vehicles with Uconnect 4 cannot be retrofitted. The fifth-generation system will be available in two versions: Uconnect 5 and Uconnect 5 Plus. Both will offer OTA updates, dual-phone connectivity, multiple user profiles, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay wireless connection. Uconnect 5 will be available with a single display in up to a 10.1-inch screen size; Uconnect 5 Plus will have up to four screens and gets the new 12.3-inch touchscreen. Plus also receives the faster processor, Ultra HD resolution, rear seat entertainment, and TomTom navigation."

There might be hope if the 2021 Grand Cherokee was not a mid-model refresh.

Was the 2021 Grand Cherokee a mid-model refresh? I ask because the 2021 Grand Cherokee loaner I was given had Uconnect5. Maybe it's as simple as a new head unit that fits the current dash layout? Wishful thinking anyway.

Did you have the new 2021 WL 75 L model, that is all new with 3 row seating. The 2021 WK2 with 2 row has the older 8.4 U-Connect

are you 100% sure about that? unless it was a new 3 row grand Cherokee L, it should have Uconnect4 still. I have yet to see an outgoing style grand Cherokee with the Uconnect5 system.

They must have given you the brand new L version because the current 2 row Grand Cherokee still has UC4.

The current Grand Cherokee generation has been in production since 2011 and I assume is up for an update.

The last Mercedes ML Jeep, finally exiting stage left. The replacement seem to be a nice vehicle. At first new gen (3-row) and old gen (2 row) will be sold side-by-side. A la JK/JL 2018 overlap.

The two-row WL74 will be fully revealed next month at the NYIAS in 4xe trim. They showed a couple of pics of it last week at the electrification event. We had a 2017 GC Trailhawk and loved it. Hope the new one is even better.

Given how nice the L is, the 2 row will be great. I think the 2 row looks better as well. Probably going to upgrade my other halfs 20 GC to a 4xe GC
