2026 Jeep® Grand Cherokee: Proven Performance From a Flagship SUV

2026 Jeep® Grand Cherokee - The Full-Size SUV

Few names in the SUV world carry as much weight as the 2026 Jeep® Grand Cherokee, and this year’s changes give you reason to pay attention. Byers Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM built this guide to break down what’s new inside, under the hood, and behind the wheel. Here’s what defines the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Power and Performance

The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee continues to uphold this model’s reputation for power. The new 2.0-liter Hurricane™ 4 Turbo engine produces 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. Select Laredo models offer a 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 for a naturally aspirated option that still boasts impressive power at 293 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Available Selec-Terrain® comes on Laredo Altitude models, while Summit steps up to Quadra-Trac II® 4×4 with air suspension.

Technology Features

Laredo Altitude models and above now include a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen as standard equipment, with available upgrades like a 10.25-inch front-passenger display and a rear-facing Fam Cam camera. Limited models add leatherette upholstery, heated second-row seats, and a nine-speaker Alpine audio system. Summit models top the lineup with a digital rearview mirror and a 19-speaker McIntosh audio system. That same tiered technology approach carries over to every new Jeep SUV in the lineup.

Safety Features

Standard equipment on the base Laredo includes Active Lane Management, Rear Park Assist, Blind-spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path Detection, and Automatic Emergency Braking. Laredo Altitude adds Traffic Sign Recognition and Intersection Collision Assist, and available upgrades include hands-free Active Driving Assist, Night Vision, a 360-degree camera, and an off-road camera. These systems support you around Columbus and unfamiliar roads.

Towing and Cargo

The available three-row Jeep Grand Cherokee L configuration pairs with the standard two-row layout to fit different household needs. When properly equipped with the Hurricane 4 Turbo engine, the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee can tow up to 6,200 lbs, enough for a boat, camper, or enclosed trailer. The Jeep Grand Cherokee L adds third-row USB chargers on Laredo Altitude models and above, plus an optional 60/40 second-row bench seat.
