Where the 4.7L 8-cyl sits in the Commander engine lineup

Every engine family this model was sold with, ordered by size. The bar spans the model years it was fitted; the price is what cars carrying it ask today. Older engines look cheaper because the cars are older — the only fair comparison is an engine whose years overlap this one's.

The 4.7L 8-cyl Commander: common questions

Which Commander years have the 4.7L 8-cyl?

2006–2009, without a break — 4 model years in our VIN decode, across 18 factory configurations and 8,831 VINs.

What does a 4.7L 8-cyl Commander cost?

$5,395 is the typical asking price across the 49 cars with this engine on sale today. The year-by-year ladder above splits that by model year — the spread between the oldest and newest year is far wider than the spread between engines.

Is the 4.7L 8-cyl turbocharged?

No — every configuration in this family decodes as naturally aspirated.

What is the engine code, and does it matter?

Magnum — the code the VIN decodes to on the configurations on this page. It matters when you order parts or read a service history: the same displacement badge on another model can be a different code with different outputs.
