The Jeep Wagoneer L will soon make its way to various law enforcement and security fleets with the right stuff to help police officers do their jobs.
Law enforcement agencies have often used large SUVs in their security efforts, and the latest vehicle to join these efforts is the Wagoneer L. This model is the longer-wheelbase version of the Wagoneer, which means it has an extended cargo area for more stuff. This Jeep SUV is packed with the items necessary for security, including the lights and sirens required for law enforcement officials.
Big, Bold, and Ready for Service
Typically, we see Cadillac Escalades and Chevrolet Suburbans in the motorcades of many government dignitaries and officials, but those big haulers might be escorted to their destinations by these specially-made Wagoneer L SUVs. These law enforcement-ready models are equipped with everything required to do the job right. This means flashing red and blue lights behind the grille, under the top of the windshield, and in the rear quarter windows. There’s also an impressive siren and speaker system, a rear gun vault, a power distribution center, and the wiring that sends power to everything that needs it in this SUV.
No Extra Power
Over the years, we’ve talked about various regular vehicles receiving law enforcement upgrades to make them right for the services required. The new Jeep Wagoneer L isn’t a pursuit-rated model. It’s built to fit in with the other Special Service Vehicle (SSV) models on the market. Examples of these are the Ford F-150 and Expedition SSV models and the Ram 1500 SSV. This Jeep is like having a large security guard in the perfect clothing. It’s presentable, formidable, imposing, but not made to chase down anyone that has a little bit of juice to run away.
The Storm is Strong
This new Wagoneer L is built to wear the police garb, and it has a good amount of power, even if it’s not more than you can get at your local Jeep dealership. This impressive Jeep SUV uses the new Hurricane powertrain, which gives you a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged 6-cylinder engine mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. This setup gives the Wagoneer L 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft of torque. The law enforcement version of this SUV is available in 2WD and 4WD versions, much like the models you can find at the dealership.

There’s also 42.1 cubic feet of cargo room behind the third row, which is much more than most other SUVs. With all the seats folded, the Wagoneer L has 130.9 cubic feet of usable space.
You can fit passengers across three comfortable rows of seats in the Wagoneer L, which makes it a useful SUV for families. Now that this SUV is being used for security and law enforcement, its found a new home and will be extremely useful for agencies that need it.
