Seven configurations, from $63,995 to $100,310. What each one actually adds, and where the money stops buying capability.
The 2026 Grand Wagoneer is sold in seven configurations spanning $63,995 to $100,310 before the $2,795 destination charge, and the spread between the ends is more than $36,000. What that money does not buy is a different engine: every configuration runs the same 3.0-liter Hurricane twin-turbo six making 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft. The decision here is about cabin materials, screens, audio, suspension and hardware, not about power.
Jeep Portsmouth stocks across the range, and this page walks each configuration in order, then puts them in one matrix, then answers the four cross-shops that actually come up on the lot. One structural note that makes the lineup easier to read: underneath the seven retail names sit three engineering trims, Grand Wagoneer, Limited and Summit. Upland, Altitude, Reserve and Obsidian are packages layered on those three. That is why two configurations can share a weights table and a feature grid while carrying very different badges.
Prices are base MSRP and exclude the $2,795 destination freight charge, tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment. Every configuration is available in the long-wheelbase Grand Wagoneer L body for a flat $3,000 more.
| Configuration | Base MSRP | Underlying trim | In one line |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Wagoneer | $63,995 | Grand Wagoneer | The whole vehicle, none of the jewelry. Rear-drive standard. |
| Limited Altitude | $72,060 | Limited | Nappa leather and blacked-out exterior trim. Four-wheel drive only. |
| Upland | $73,060 | Grand Wagoneer | Air suspension, skid plates, all-terrain tires, tow hardware. Short wheelbase only. |
| 85th Anniversary Edition | $75,990 | Commemorative build | Marks 85 years of Jeep. Ask us for the current build sheet. |
| Limited Reserve | $79,960 | Limited | Adds the 19-speaker McIntosh, tri-pane sunroof and head-up display. |
| Summit Obsidian | $94,310 | Summit | Full Summit content, monochrome exterior, 22-inch polished wheels. |
| Summit Reserve | $100,310 | Summit | Quilted Palermo leather, suede headliner, 23-speaker McIntosh. |
The base configuration is the one most people underestimate. It carries the same 420-horsepower Hurricane six, the same eight-speed automatic, the same seven-seat cabin with second-row captain's chairs and the same 12-inch Uconnect 5C NAV touchscreen as the $100,310 car. The driver display is a 10.25-inch reconfigurable unit, audio is a nine-speaker Alpine system with a subwoofer, climate is tri-zone automatic, and the front seats are twelve-way power, heated and ventilated. A hands-free power liftgate is standard.
Wheels are 18 x 8 machined cast aluminum with Black Noise painted pockets as standard, with 20 x 9 available. Seating surfaces are perforated Capri leather with smooth Capri bolsters in an Axis II perforation pattern. Rear-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is a $3,000 option, which is the single most consequential box on this configuration if you live north of the tidal line. Who it is for: the buyer who wants three genuine rows and the tow rating, and who would rather spend the difference on the four-wheel drive and the tow package than on quilting.
The first real step up, and it is a two-part step: the Limited trim underneath, plus the Altitude appearance package on top. From the Limited you gain perforated Nappa leather with smooth Nappa bolsters, heated second-row seats and power-foldaway memory mirrors. From Altitude you gain the blacked-out exterior treatment and 20 x 9 wheels with Gloss Black painted pockets.
Four-wheel drive is standard here, and there is no rear-drive configuration offered. The 12.3-inch driver cluster, the head-up display and the 19-speaker McIntosh audio are all available on this trim rather than standard, which is the distinction that separates it from the Limited Reserve below. Who it is for: the buyer who wants the upgraded cabin materials and a darker exterior without paying for the audio and roof glass.
Upland is the configuration that does not sit neatly in the price order, and reading it as "one step above Limited Altitude" gets it wrong. It sits on the base Grand Wagoneer trim, not on the Limited, and the thousand dollars over the Altitude buys hardware rather than trim. The package carries Quadra-Lift air suspension with semi-active damping, skid plates for the fuel tank, transfer case and front axle, 275/55R20 Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires on 20 x 9 wheels painted Luster Grey Metallic, and the two-speed transfer case with its 2.64 low-range ratio.
It also bundles the tow hardware: the 3.92 final drive ratio, a limited-slip differential, Selec-Speed Control, integrated trailer brake control, trailer light monitoring, trailer tire pressure monitoring, Blind-spot Monitoring with Trailer Tow Detection, and removable rear tow hooks with Vapor front tow hooks. The 3.92 axle is what unlocks the 10,000-pound rating, so an Upland tows the maximum straight off the lot. It is not the cheapest way there: a base Grand Wagoneer 4x4 with the Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package reaches the same 10,000 pounds for $68,990, which is $4,070 less. What the Upland adds on top is the air suspension, the skid plates and the all-terrain tires. It is offered on the short wheelbase only. Who it is for: the buyer towing a boat to a ramp or running an unplowed road to a trailhead, who wants the capability content and does not need Nappa leather.
A commemorative build marking 85 years of Jeep, priced between the Upland and the Limited Reserve. Because its content is set by a quick-order package rather than by a standing trim level, the equipment list moves with production and we would rather walk you through the equipment on a specific unit than publish a list that may not match the vehicle you are looking at. Call us at (603) 431-8900 or check what is on the ground and we will walk the build sheet with you. Who it is for: the buyer who wants the commemorative badging and is flexible on the rest.
This is where the Limited trim gets the equipment that is merely available on the Altitude. The 19-speaker McIntosh MX950 audio system, the tri-pane panoramic sunroof and the head-up display all arrive here, and 22 x 9 wheels in Gloss Black are available. The Nappa leather carries over from the Limited underneath.
The tri-pane sunroof deserves a note before you order it. The third pane sits over the third row, and it is the single feature that most changes how the back of this cabin feels on a long drive. It also costs headroom: third-row headroom drops from 39.0 inches to 38.5 with the roof fitted, second row from 40.0 to 38.4, and the front row gives up two full inches. If you regularly carry tall adults in front, sit in one with the roof before you commit. Who it is for: the buyer who wants the full sensory upgrade, roof glass and real audio, without stepping into Summit money.
The Summit trim moves a long list of previously optional equipment to standard: the 12.3-inch driver cluster, four-zone automatic climate control with a dedicated comfort display, 24-way power front seats, the 19-speaker McIntosh MX950, the tri-pane panoramic sunroof, Quadra-Lift air suspension, the head-up display, the 360-degree surround-view camera, ParkSense and automatic hold braking. Seating is premium perforated Nappa with smooth Nappa bolsters, and 22 x 9 machined wheels with Black Noise pockets and brushed nano steel inserts are standard.
The Obsidian package on top of that is a monochrome treatment: 22-inch polished wheels with black inserts, Gloss Black upper and lower daylight opening moldings, and adjustable roof rail crossbars. Four-wheel drive is standard with no rear-drive configuration offered. Who it is for: the buyer who wants everything working without consulting an options list, in the darkest possible finish.
The top of the range takes the Summit content and changes the materials. Seating moves to Palermo leather with quilted, registered perforation, the headliner becomes premium suede, and the audio steps to the McIntosh MX1375: 23 speakers, a 24-channel amplifier, up to 1,375 watts and a 12-inch dual voice coil subwoofer. Wheels are 22 x 9 in Black Noise with Gloss Black inserts.
Mechanically it is identical to the Summit Obsidian and, for that matter, to the $63,995 base car. Who it is for: the buyer for whom the cabin is the product, and who will notice the difference between a nineteen-speaker system and a twenty-three-speaker one on the drive home.
| Configuration | Base MSRP | Drivetrain | Wheels | Seating surfaces | Audio | Driver display |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Wagoneer | $63,995 | RWD std, 4WD $3,000 | 18 x 8 std, 20 x 9 avail | Perforated Capri leather | 9-speaker Alpine | 10.25 in |
| Limited Altitude | $72,060 | 4WD only | 20 x 9 Gloss Black pockets | Perforated Nappa leather | 9-speaker std, 19-speaker avail | 10.25 in std, 12.3 avail |
| Upland | $73,060 | 4WD, two-speed transfer case | 20 x 9 Luster Grey, all-terrain tires | Perforated Capri leather | 9-speaker Alpine | 10.25 in |
| 85th Anniversary | $75,990 | See build sheet | See build sheet | See build sheet | See build sheet | See build sheet |
| Limited Reserve | $79,960 | 4WD only | 22 x 9 Gloss Black avail | Perforated Nappa leather | 19-speaker McIntosh MX950 | 12.3 in |
| Summit Obsidian | $94,310 | 4WD only | 22-inch polished, black inserts | Premium perforated Nappa | 19-speaker McIntosh MX950 | 12.3 in |
| Summit Reserve | $100,310 | 4WD only | 22 x 9 Black Noise, gloss inserts | Quilted Palermo leather | 23-speaker McIntosh MX1375 | 12.3 in |
Three figures are the same in every row and are stated once rather than repeated: the engine is the 3.0-liter Hurricane twin-turbo six at 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft, third-row legroom is 36.6 inches. Maximum towing is 10,000 pounds on any short-wheelbase four-wheel-drive build carrying the 3.92 axle, and 6,030 pounds on the standard 3.55 axle. Full figures live on the specs and dimensions page.
This is the $8,065 question, and it is the biggest single step in the lineup. What crosses over is cabin material and exterior finish: Nappa leather instead of Capri, heated second-row seats, power-foldaway memory mirrors, blacked-out exterior trim and 20-inch wheels with Gloss Black pockets. Four-wheel drive is standard on the Altitude and a $3,000 option on the base car, so on a like-for-like four-wheel-drive basis the real gap is $5,065.
What does not change is the engine, the screen, the seat count, the tow rating or the third row. If your priority is capability, that $5,065 buys more Grand Wagoneer at the base trim by way of the tow package than it does at the Altitude. If your priority is the daily experience of sitting in it, the Nappa and the heated second row are things you feel every drive.
These two sit $1,000 apart and are the clearest either-or in the lineup, because they are not two points on one line. They are different vehicles built for different weekends. The Altitude is the Limited trim with a dark exterior and upgraded leather. The Upland is the base trim carrying a capability package: Quadra-Lift air suspension, skid plates, all-terrain tires, a two-speed transfer case and the 3.92 axle that unlocks the full tow rating.
Put plainly: if you tow, or if the road to where you are going stops being paved, the Upland is the answer and the extra thousand dollars over the Altitude is the cheapest capability in the range. If you only tow and never leave pavement, price the base 4x4 with the tow package first — it reaches the same rating for less. If you spend your miles on I-95 and Route 1, the Altitude gives you a nicer place to spend them. Neither is the upgrade to the other.
A $14,350 step, and the largest in the lineup. Both carry the 19-speaker McIntosh, the tri-pane sunroof, the head-up display and the 12.3-inch cluster, so the audio and the roof are not what you are paying for. What Summit adds is four-zone climate control with its own comfort display, 24-way power front seats in place of twelve-way, standard Quadra-Lift air suspension, the surround-view camera, ParkSense and automatic hold braking, plus premium Nappa in place of standard Nappa and the monochrome Obsidian exterior.
This is the step where the value verdict below turns negative for most buyers. The Limited Reserve already has the equipment people name when they describe why they wanted this vehicle.
Six thousand dollars, and it is entirely materials and speakers: quilted Palermo leather in place of premium Nappa, a suede headliner, and the McIntosh MX1375 with 23 speakers and a 1,375-watt output in place of the 19-speaker MX950. Mechanically the two are identical. If you sit in both and cannot tell, buy the Obsidian; if you can, you already know which one you want.
The sweet spot: Upland at $73,060. It is the only configuration whose package is capability rather than appearance. If towing is the whole reason, though, it is not the cheapest way there: a base Grand Wagoneer 4x4 at $66,995 with the $1,995 Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package reaches the same 10,000-pound rating for $68,990, and the $4,070 the Upland asks on top buys the air suspension, the skid plates and the all-terrain tires rather than the tow rating itself. On the Seacoast, where the same vehicle tows a boat in July and climbs an unplowed hill in February, air suspension and all-terrain tires are the options that earn their money twice a year.
The one most people overpay for: Summit Reserve at $100,310. It is $36,315 above the base car and $6,000 above the Summit Obsidian, and every dollar of that last step is leather, headliner and four extra speakers. The engine, the tow rating, the seat count and the third row are identical to the $63,995 car.
| Step | Price difference | What you gain |
|---|---|---|
| Grand Wagoneer to Limited Altitude | +$8,065 | Nappa leather, heated second row, memory mirrors, dark exterior, 20-inch wheels, four-wheel drive as standard |
| Limited Altitude to Upland | +$1,000 (lateral) | Different intent, not more equipment: air suspension, skid plates, all-terrain tires, two-speed transfer case, 3.92 axle and tow hardware, but back to Capri leather |
| Upland to 85th Anniversary Edition | +$2,930 | Commemorative content set by order package, confirmed per unit on the build sheet |
| 85th Anniversary to Limited Reserve | +$3,970 | 19-speaker McIntosh, tri-pane panoramic sunroof, head-up display, 12.3-inch cluster, Nappa leather |
| Limited Reserve to Summit Obsidian | +$14,350 | Four-zone climate with comfort display, 24-way front seats, standard air suspension, surround-view camera, ParkSense, auto hold, premium Nappa, monochrome exterior |
| Summit Obsidian to Summit Reserve | +$6,000 | Quilted Palermo leather, suede headliner, 23-speaker McIntosh MX1375 |
Price differences are calculated from the base MSRPs above and exclude destination. The Limited Altitude to Upland row is marked a lateral move because it steps down in cabin material while stepping up in hardware, so it is a change of purpose rather than a promotion.
Upland, or a base Grand Wagoneer 4x4 with the Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package. Both routes get you the 3.92 axle and the 10,000-pound rating; the Upland adds the air suspension and all-terrain tires around it.
Any configuration in the long-wheelbase Grand Wagoneer L body, for $3,000. The L takes cargo behind the third row from 27.9 to 42.6 cubic feet. It does not add legroom, so buy it for the trunk.
Base Grand Wagoneer at $63,995, with four-wheel drive added. Same engine, same screen, same seven seats and same third row as the top of the range.
Limited Reserve at $79,960 is the value pick for that priority, and Summit Reserve at $100,310 is the ceiling. The Reserve gets you the McIntosh and the roof glass without the Summit premium.
Summit Obsidian at $94,310. Everything that is available elsewhere is standard here, in a monochrome finish.
Jeep Portsmouth is at 2355 Lafayette Rd, Portsmouth, NH 03801, and we can be reached at (603) 431-8900. Being a Jeep-only rooftop means the whole lot is Jeep inventory, so comparing an Upland against a Limited Reserve is a walk across the pavement rather than a second appointment somewhere else.
Which configuration is right depends less on budget than on what the vehicle has to survive. Where winters put salt on the road for months and the pavement gives way to gravel and sand within a few miles of the coast, all-terrain tires and adjustable ride height stop being a lifestyle choice. Where the commute is highway and the vehicle lives in a garage, the money is better spent on the cabin. We are a short drive from Somersworth, Seabrook, Stratham, Newmarket and Durham, and an easy run north for buyers coming up from the Massachusetts line.

Seven configurations are sold and priced: Grand Wagoneer at $63,995, Limited Altitude at $72,060, Upland at $73,060, the 85th Anniversary Edition at $75,990, Limited Reserve at $79,960, Summit Obsidian at $94,310 and Summit Reserve at $100,310, all excluding the $2,795 destination charge. Underneath those sit three engineering trims, Grand Wagoneer, Limited and Summit, with Upland, Altitude, Reserve and Obsidian layered on as packages.
No. Every 2026 Grand Wagoneer uses the same 3.0-liter Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six making 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft, paired with an eight-speed automatic. The $100,310 Summit Reserve and the $63,995 base car are mechanically identical on power. The 510-horsepower High Output engine offered in prior years is not part of the 2026 lineup.
Any short-wheelbase four-wheel-drive build carrying the 3.92 axle ratio, which arrives with the Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package. The Upland bundles that hardware as standard content, so it tows the maximum as configured; the same rating is available more cheaply by adding the Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package to a base 4x4. On the standard 3.55 axle the same four-wheel-drive vehicle is rated 6,030 pounds, so the axle rather than the trim badge is what decides the rating.
Both sit on the Limited trim with its Nappa leather. The Reserve, $7,900 higher, makes standard what is merely available on the Altitude: the 19-speaker McIntosh MX950 audio, the tri-pane panoramic sunroof, the head-up display and the 12.3-inch driver cluster. The Altitude's distinguishing feature is its blacked-out exterior treatment.
No. The Upland sits on the base Grand Wagoneer trim, not on the Limited, and the $1,000 difference buys hardware rather than luxury: Quadra-Lift air suspension, skid plates, all-terrain tires, a two-speed transfer case with a 2.64 low range, and the 3.92 axle with tow equipment. Its seats are Capri leather rather than the Altitude's Nappa. They are different-intent configurations, not consecutive steps.
Every configuration except the base Grand Wagoneer, where rear-wheel drive is standard and four-wheel drive is a $3,000 option. The Limited Altitude and Summit Obsidian are offered in four-wheel drive only, with no rear-drive configuration available.
The 19-speaker McIntosh MX950 is standard on Summit Obsidian and Limited Reserve, and available on Limited Altitude. The Summit Reserve steps up to the McIntosh MX1375, a 23-speaker system with a 24-channel amplifier, up to 1,375 watts and a 12-inch dual voice coil subwoofer. The base Grand Wagoneer and the Upland carry a nine-speaker Alpine system with a subwoofer.
If a configuration on the lot matches what you want, buying in stock is faster and you can confirm the exact equipment on the vehicle itself before you commit, which matters most on the 85th Anniversary Edition where content is set by an order package. If you want a specific combination, such as a base Grand Wagoneer with four-wheel drive and the Heavy-duty Trailer Tow package, ordering is worth the wait. Call us at (603) 431-8900 and we will tell you honestly which is quicker for the build you want.
The difference between Capri and Nappa, or nineteen speakers and twenty-three, is a two-minute walk across our lot. Come sit in both.
