Stellantis has again made a significant mark in the automotive industry, as the Wagoneer, Jeep Wrangler, and Ram ProMaster are projected to hold their value best among their categories in the J.D. Power 2024 U.S. ALG Residual Value Awards. This annual award sets a benchmark in the industry, highlighting vehicles that are expected to retain the highest percentage of their manufacturer’s suggested retail price after three years of ownership.
Wagoneer: Setting the Standard in Large SUVs
For the second consecutive year, the Wagoneer is anticipated to lead the large SUV segment in value retention. The 2024 model enhances its appeal by standardizing the Hurricane I-6 engine across all its models. This engine, capable of delivering 420 horsepower and 468 lb.-ft of torque, is instrumental in achieving the Wagoneer's best-in-class 10,000-pound towing capacity. Additionally, the Wagoneer stands out for its spacious interior, offering leading passenger volume and legroom in both the second and third rows.
Jeep Wrangler: Excellence in Off-Road Utility Vehicles
The Jeep Wrangler has been named the top performer among off-road utility vehicles for 2024. It comes refreshed with larger tires, increased ground clearance, and improved traction. The Wrangler also features advancements such as the Sky One-Touch power top, 12-way power-adjustable front seats, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen radio equipped with Uconnect 5. The inclusion of the Wrangler 4xe models in the residual value award underscores its position as America's best-selling plug-in hybrid since 2021.
Ram ProMaster: Dominating the Commercial Van Segment
The Ram ProMaster secures its spot as the top choice for residual value among commercial vans. The 2024 model introduces new amenities such as a heated steering wheel and windshield, and the ParkSense with Stop system for enhanced safety. Its best-in-class cargo volume and payload capacity further establish the ProMaster as a reliable choice in its category.
The recognition of the Wagoneer, Jeep Wrangler, and Ram ProMaster in the J.D. Power 2024 Residual Value Awards underscores Stellantis's commitment to quality and long-term value. These vehicles demonstrate a balance of power, innovation, and practicality, making them sound investments for consumers looking for durability and value retention in their automotive choices.
