The Uconnect 5 infotainment system in the 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer may be a game changer.
Perched inside the 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Andre and an engineer (Josh Rigg) showed us the workings of the Uconnect 5 infotainment system. This is an all-new vehicle, with an all-new infotainment system that’s wired into seven interactive screens. This system seamlessly integrates climate control, navigation, communication, and entertainment.
… but there’s more to it than that.
The newest Uconnect 5 is several times faster than the current system. The updated processor has 6GB of RAM and up to 64GB of (solid-state) storage. Among other things (like over-the-air, and map updates) this processing power allows ultra-HD resolution on large screens. Fire-TV is wired into the rear three screens, which is simple for passengers to use.
“Uconnect 5 builds upon a well-established, intuitive user experience (UX) and third-party recognition with Android’s automotive operating system and processing speeds that are five times faster. Uconnect pioneers personalization with up to five user profiles plus valet mode, reestablishing vehicle preferences and settings with the touch of a button.
Exclusive and customizable home screen allows quick access to frequently used features with one-touch operation. Uconnect expands Alexa “Home to Car” functionality to include in-vehicle Alexa virtual assistant with natural voice capability and “Car to Home” features. Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto make connecting and sharing easy. New TomTom navigation experience adds popular features for a built-in solution with natural voice capability.”
