What’s New in 2024?

For the 2024 model year, the Jeep Grand Cherokee receives minor updates. The most notable change is the new 18-inch polished aluminum wheels for the midrange Limited trim. Apart from this, the Grand Cherokee remains largely unchanged, carrying over its impressive features and capabilities from the previous year.

Specs and Trims

The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee is available in several trims, each offering a unique combination of features and capabilities. The base Laredo model comes well equipped with essential features, while higher-end trims such as the Summit and Overland add a touch of luxury with premium materials and advanced technology.

Under the hood, the Grand Cherokee offers two powertrain options. The standard engine is a 3.6-liter V-6 that produces 293 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. For those seeking more efficiency, there’s the 4xe plug-in hybrid powertrain, which combines a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor powered by a 14 kWh battery pack for a total output of 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque.

The Grand Cherokee comes standard with rear-wheel drive, but all-wheel drive is available across the lineup. The Trailhawk trim, in particular, is designed for serious off-road adventures with up to 11.3 inches of ground clearance, adjustable air suspension, disconnecting sway bar, and various terrain-specific driving modes.

The Grand Cherokee’s performance is impressive, with the V-6 model accelerating from zero to 60 mph in a respectable 7.4 seconds. The plug-in hybrid 4xe model is even quicker, reaching 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds and completing the quarter-mile in 13.9 seconds at 100 mph. The Grand Cherokee also boasts a smooth and composed ride, making it a pleasure to drive on both paved roads and off-road trails.

Towing with the new Grand Cherokee is stress-free, making it particularly useful for people who enjoy the outdoors. The maximum towing capacity for the 2024 model is an impressive 6,200 pounds, with the plug-in hybrid 4xe model rated for up to 6,000 pounds, edging out rivals such as the Honda Passport. This makes the Jeep SUV a capable choice for those who need to tow boats, trailers, or other recreational equipment.

Features and Dimensions

Inside, the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee offers a spacious and well-appointed cabin. The interior has been thoroughly modernized, with high-quality materials and advanced technology features. Depending on the trim, you can find premium amenities such as quilted leather upholstery, open-pore wood trim, and digital displays.

The Grand Cherokee provides ample room for passengers and cargo. It has a passenger volume of 145 cubic feet and a cargo capacity of 38 cubic feet behind the rear seats.

In terms of infotainment, the Grand Cherokee comes standard with an 8.4-inch touch-screen display, while a larger 10.1-inch screen is available on higher trims. The system supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Other notable features include a digital gauge cluster, a 10-inch head-up display, and a rear-seat entertainment system.

The Grand Cherokee’s infotainment system is user-friendly and responsive, with intuitive menus and crisp graphics. The available McIntosh audio system delivers exceptional sound quality, making every drive a truly immersive experience. Additionally, the Grand Cherokee offers a range of connectivity options, including multiple USB ports, wireless charging, and a Wi-Fi hotspot, ensuring that you and your passengers stay connected on the go.

Safety and Tech

Safety is a top priority in the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and it comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver-assistance features. Standard safety technologies include automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.

Higher trims offer additional safety features such as blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a surround-view camera system. These advanced technologies provide added peace of mind and help keep you and your passengers safe on the road.

The Grand Cherokee also offers a range of convenient tech features. The available wireless charging pad keeps your smartphone powered up without the need for cords, while the digital rearview mirror provides an unobstructed view of what’s behind you. The Grand Cherokee can also be equipped with a premium McIntosh audio system for an immersive listening experience.

In terms of driver assistance, the Grand Cherokee offers several semi-autonomous driving modes that can help reduce driver fatigue on long trips. These features include adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, lane-centering assist, and a hands-free active driving-assist system that can handle steering, acceleration, and braking in certain conditions.

The Grand Cherokee has also performed well in crash tests, earning high marks from both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. This further reinforces the Grand Cherokee’s commitment to safety and provides added confidence for drivers and passengers alike.
