When your family has grown and you’re finally ready to upgrade into a spacious, comfortable, and safe SUV for those daily and weekend adventures, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is the way to go. Not only is it a top pick for families across the nation, but it’s been considered the Most Awarded SUV Ever! Since its debut in 1993, the Grand Cherokee has built loyal fans who know what it means to drive with confidence and comfort. Here’s why it continues to be a family favorite year after year.

 

1. It delivers award-winning safety families can trust.

 

Safety is the first box every parent wants checked. Precious cargo is in tow! Good thing the Jeep Grand Cherokee has been named a 2024 IIHS Top Safety Pick. This rating covers everything from headlight illumination to seatbelt reminders to crash ratings. You can drive without worry, knowing the whole family will be safe. And, you know how they say mom has eyes in the back of her head? Now your Jeep does too.

 

Under the hood and all around the cabin, over 70 security and safety features look out to protect your crew. Smart sensors at the front of the vehicle detect when something is in your path, warning you and braking automatically to help avoid a collision. It also watches your blind spots, alerts you to cars crossing behind you while reversing, and makes parking easier with a clear rear view. Available upgrades include a 360° view of your surroundings and a system that helps detect oncoming traffic at intersections, helping prevent side collisions.

 

2. It offers available three-row seating that’s spacious and comfortable.

 

The Grand Cherokee also provides the room your family needs, with plenty of space to stretch out, load up, and settle in. The standard two-row model seats up to five passengers and offers over 70 cubic feet of cargo room, perfect for strollers, sports gear, or a trip to the grocery store. Need more seating? The Grand Cherokee L adds a third row, making room for up to seven.

 

With wide rear doors and a low step-in height, the L model also makes it easy for little ones to climb in and out. The second row can be configured with either a bench or captain’s chairs, and the power-folding third row lets you adapt the space in seconds. Behind that third row is even more cargo space and with all rear seats folded, you’ve got a cavernous 84.6 cubic feet to work with.

 

3. It’s ready for road trips or everyday adventures.

 

Get ready for your next adventure! Engines in this lineup vary by trim, giving you the flexibility to choose the performance that fits your family’s lifestyle. The V6 delivers a solid 293 horsepower, 6,200 towing capacity, and up to 26 mpg on the highway, making it a smart choice for daily driving and road trips alike.

 

For those who need extra muscle, the V8 steps things up with 357 horsepower and a Best-in-Class towing capacity of 7,200 pounds. Engine specs include:

 

• 3.6L Pentastar V6 – 293 hp / 260 lb-ft torque | ~19 mpg city / 26 mpg highway
• 5.7L Hemi V8 – 357 hp / 390 lb-ft torque | ~14 mpg city / 22 mpg highway

 

Whether it be a boat, camper, or weekend trailer, the Grand Cherokee is built to haul it all without breaking a sweat.

 

4. Designed for connectivity and entertainment the whole family will enjoy.

 

No more, “Dad, are we there yet?” The Grand Cherokee keeps everyone connected, comfortable, and entertained. At the heart of the cabin is an easy-to-use touchscreen, up to 10 inches for those looking for more screen space. You can connect your smartphone, play music, get directions, and make hands-free calls with ease. There’s even an available screen for the front passenger, so your co-pilot can help with navigation or entertainment on the go.

 

For music lovers, an available high-end sound system with 19 speakers makes every drive sound like a concert, delivering 950 watts of power. Tri-zone automatic climate control keeps everyone doubly happy with personalized temperature settings, while acoustic glass and sound-deadening construction provide a quiet, relaxing ride (even when the back seat is filled with chatter). Enjoy the ride as much as the destination.

 

5. It’s built with a family-proof interior and style that lasts for the long haul.

 

No two families are the same and the Grand Cherokee lineup reflects that, as the 2024 model range includes trims that strike a balance between rugged capability and premium features. Each trim delivers its own unique blend of performance and pleasure, with add-ons available like leather seating and panoramic sunroofs. Available trims include:

 

• Laredo
• Laredo A
• Laredo X
• Altitude
• Altitude X
• Limited
• Overland
• Summit
• Summit Reserve

 

At the top end, the Summit and Summit Reserve trims make every drive a breeze with ultra-premium materials, 16-way power-adjustable seats, available massage functions, and a cabin that feels more luxury lounge than SUV. And no matter which one you choose, you’re getting the lasting style and family-first focus that has made the Grand Cherokee a legend for over 30 years.
