Trim levels include Laredo, Limited, Trailhawk, Overland and Summit.Īll Grand Cherokee models get niceties like dual-zone automatic climate control, 17-inch aluminum wheels,12-way power driver's seat with lumbar, passive keyless entry, backup camera and rear park assist. The SRT and Trackhawk models don't shy away from work, either: both can tow nearly 3,300 kg. If you ask us, it was a stroke of genius to create high-powered versions of the Grand Cherokee to compete with high-end European models at comparatively affordable prices the SRT is a capable track performer in its own right, but the Trackhawk leaves it - and the likes of the Porsche Cayenne Turbo and Range Rover Sport Supercharged - in its dust. The SRT and Trackhawk's estimates are notably less frugal at 18.3/12.6 and 20.9/13.8, respectively. The more common 3.6L gasser's estimates are 12.7/9.6 L/100 km, and the 5.7L is rated at 16.7/10.9. The diesel combines big torque with fuel economy that can rival that of family sedans.
All engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission (the Trackhawk gets a heavier-duty version) and full-time 4WD that can be optioned to a system with low-range gearing with either of the V6s or the 5.7L V8. There are also new Sterling Edition and High Altitude Edition packages available in Limited and Overland trims, and a number of other new packages and finishes that are standard or optional throughout the rest of the range.Īs before, the Grand Cherokee starts out with a 3.6L V6 good for as much as 295 hp and 260 lb-ft, and a 5.7L V8 that generates 360 hp and 390 lb-ft, a 3.0L turbodiesel V6 making 240 hp and 420 lb-ft and a 6.4L V8 in the SRT trim that cranks out 475 hp and 470 lb-ft. Other updates for this year include the addition of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality to the Grand Cherokee's Uconnect infotainment system. Some of its key data include a 3.5-second 0-96 km/h sprint and a 320-km/h top speed. This Jeep flagship's road-going prowess is amped up for 2018 with the addition of the Trackhawk model, which stuff's the Challenger Hellcat's supercharged 6.2L V8 into the engine bay to lend this truck the kind of performance only 707 hp and 645 lb-ft of torque can provide. The Grand Cherokee lives atop the Jeep lineup as a mid-size SUV that combines the brand's renowned off-road abilities with luxury and powertrain options that allow this truck to keep up with SUVs from more prestigious brands like Porsche and Land Rover.
