| Drive | Engine | Axle ratio | Max trailer weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2WD | 3.0L | 3.55 | 6,120 lb |

Why the axle ratio matters
The biggest difference in these tables is the axle ratio. On the 2026 Grand Wagoneer, both the front and rear axles are listed with a 3.55:1 ratio as standard and 3.92:1 as optional, and the 4x4 ratings go from 6,030 pounds (5,770 for the L) with the 3.55 axle to 10,000 pounds (9,860 for the L) with the 3.92 axle. If you plan to tow a large camper or boat, confirm the axle ratio on the vehicle before you buy.
The 2026 sheet also lists a single-speed transfer case as standard and an optional two-speed transfer case with a 2.64 low range, and both include a Tow mode among the selectable modes. Always check the towing information in your owner's manual and the vehicle's own labels before you hitch up.
