What the Critics Say
“The Jeep Grand Cherokee has one of the nicest interiors in its class. The design looks nice, and the materials are upscale, especially in the upper trims. Everything but the base trim has leather seats, and the top trims come with luxuries like massaging seats, 4-zone climate control, and premium audio systems, including a 19-speaker McIntosh sound system.” - Kelley Blue Book
“The Jeep Grand Cherokee has a lot of good things going for it. It's comfortable and relatively spacious, and it offers class-leading towing and genuine off-road capability. We also like its well-tuned advanced driving aids that help make driving easier and safer.” - Edmunds
What’s New For 2023
There are a handful of minor adjustments to the Jeep Grand Cherokee family for the 2023 model year. Last year’s previously available 5.7-liter V8 engine has been discontinued and the prior Trailhawk model is now reserved exclusively for 4xe variants. In terms of infotainment, Limited and Overland trims now come standard with the larger 10.1-inch touchscreen display featuring navigation. Finally, the optional Alpine audio system is now a standalone option on Limited trims while Overland and Summit models can now be ordered with the McIntosh audio system.
Jeep Grand Cherokee Features
Proven Capability
The Jeep Grand Cherokee has built its legendary reputation on its outstanding off-road capability and proven performance. Standard power comes in the form of a venerable 3.6L Pentastar™ V6 Variable Valve Timing (VVT) engine that’s paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, producing a total of 293 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Drivers will have their choice of three distinct 4X4 systems: Quadra-Trac I®, Quadra-Trac II ®, and Quadra-Drive® II with a rear electronic limited-slip differential. Featuring Electronic Semi-Active Damping, the optional Class-Exclusive Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension can prioritize on-road comfort or adjust to conquer tricky off-road terrain at the touch of a button. In fact, every Grand Cherokee is engineered to Trail Rated® standards. This means that your Grand Cherokee is ready to excel in five key areas of off-road capability: traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording.
Premium Interior
World-class appointments, premium materials, and spacious dimensions are just three highlights of the luxurious interior of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. For maximum comfort, shoppers can opt for authentic Nappa leather upholstery along with 16-way adjustable seats featuring memory pre-sets and massage functionality. Set the mood of the interior with an available multicolor ambient LED lighting system, adding a touch of sophistication to the cabin. The optional CommandView® Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof lets you take in uninterrupted views of the stars and fill the interior with fresh air. Audiophiles will be impressed by the impressive collection of available audio systems offered inside the Grand Cherokee. These include the Alpine® Premium Audio System with 9 speakers and a subwoofer along with the McIntosh® 19-speaker, 950-watt Audio System. Both are tailored to the unique acoustics of the interior to deliver an unparalleled listening experience.
Connected Technology
Designed to keep you engaged, informed, and alert behind the wheel, the Jeep Grand Cherokee sets the benchmark for its class in terms of technology. Included as standard, the groundbreaking Uconnect® 5 infotainment system features customizable menus and responsiveness that continues to earn praise from top critics in the industry. Touchscreen display sizes range from a standard 8.4-inch unit up to an available 10.1-inch size, both boasting high-definition graphics. Dedicated to keeping drivers protected from the unexpected, the Grand Cherokee is also offered with a comprehensive suite of active safety features.
