The typical-wheelbase 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer with the 3.-liter Hurricane inline-6 has its to start with established of formal gasoline financial system numbers from the EPA. These gasoline economy figures utilize to the superior-output variant, which makes 510 horsepower and 500 pound-toes of torque (to the 8-cylinder’s 471 hp and 455 lb-ft). The rear-wheel travel Wagoneer’s “Hurricane 510” will get 15 miles for every gallon in the town, 21 on the freeway, and 17 blended, every single of those figures beating the 6.4 by two miles for every gallon.

Subsequent 12 months, Jeep will slot the regular-output Hurricane into the Wagoneer and Grand Wagonner lineups. That engine makes 420 hp and 450 lb-ft., and has been tuned specifically for gasoline economy. It will be put up in opposition to the 5.7-liter V8 producing 392 hp and 404 lb-ft., but it should be mentioned that the substantial-output inline-6 in the rear-wheel travel Grand Wagoneer only loses a single mile for every gallon to the 5.7-liter V8 in the smaller sized rear-wheel drive Wagoneer, and loses just one mile for each gallon in the city to the 5.7-liter V8 in the scaled-down SUV in AWD trim. The normal-output Hurricane should really make a good showing.
