I would think this just about confirms it.

Jim Morrison:

"Remember this whole conversation in New York. So, uh, we've got a press conference in New York that we're planning now. And so there's going to be more Grand Cherokee news there, more Grand Wagoneer news, you know, maybe some, uh, some powertrain news. So lots going on."

We may not get much more till closer to NY Auto SHow.

https://www.autoshowny.com/


May be a repeat below.


https://www.autoblog.com/2022/02/10/stellantis-inline6-new-york-auto-show-jeep/

The new Stellantis inline six-cylinder engine has pretty much reached "open secret" status within the auto industry, but we've yet to see concrete plans for its introduction. Well, the wait is coming to an end. Jeep appears ready to debut its new Hemi replacement at the New York International Auto Show in April.

During a media roundtable in Chicago, Autoblog asked Jeep brand chief Jim Morrison whether he had anything to share regarding the new turbocharged engine; Morrison answered our question with another: "Are you coming to New York?"

While not a hard confirmation in the strictest sense, that's about as good as it gets when it comes to discussion of future product. So, we know it's coming. But in what? The turbocharged inline engine is widely expected to be phased in as a replacement for the 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Jeep's newly redesigned Grand Cherokee and new-new Wagoneer are the only models in the lineup currently offered with the 5.7-liter, making them the likeliest candidates. There's a compelling case for either (or both).

Grand Cherokee would benefit most from Hemi replacement, provided it's lighter and more efficient than the old iron-block V8. It also sells in volumes that make it appealing to Stellantis from a CAFE standpoint. On the other hand, the Wagoneer has recently been spotted testing in long-wheelbase guise, meaning Jeep could be just about ready to show it. Why not debut it with a trick new engine that will help bring the Wagoneer's curb weight down without sacrificing power?

Not too much of value. PICs of the big fancy SUV....... Might be fun to skip the Phila Auto Show and take a short ride to NYC ( Javits Center???) in April.


'While the spy photographs don’t show a lot of change from the HEMI-powered models, we can see that the GME-T6 H.O. models will feature dual-exhaust and will require Premium Unleaded fuel (according to the decals above the fuel door). With gas prices on the rise, hopefully, the new GME-T6 H.O. can achieve a good enough fuel economy rating to justify the requirement of premium fuel.

Of course, Jeep currently recommends 91 octane premium fuel for the 6.4-liter HEMI V8-powered Grand Wagoneer models."

The 3.0-liter GME-T6 H.O. inline-six-cylinder will be followed up by a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) model in 2023.

Sacrifice spare tire, or at least relocate to inside the bed, and add extra battery; put out 350-400 total combined hp/tq; provide 50-100 miles battery only range; add a solar chargeable dongle to support solar charging while driving (i kno it wont be much at 18-24v, but every bit counts); and I'll gladly wait to trade up! (Im)patiently waiting till April and 2023.

I would seriously consider trading in my current Sport S for a Rubicon with the turbo'd inline 6 but ONLY if it can be had with 3 pedals. If not, I'm keepin what I got!
