“And for 2026, the company is seeing fit to finally give us a fully revised model. As you can see this week, we're here in Malibu, California, driving the updated Grand Cherokee.”
“Now, as we move around the side profile, you can see this is built off of their Giorgio architecture, which it shares with vehicles like the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, for example. Maserati also uses this platform.”
“So what you're looking at here is 37 cubic feet of storage space. There's also a pretty sizable underfloor storage area with a really cheap looking spare tire.”

“As I shut the door, the door has a really solid sounding thunk. Remember, this is built on the excellent Giorgio architecture, something that it shares with Alpha and Maserati products.”
“This is where Jeep made basically the one critical change. All Grand Cherokees now come with the bigger 12.3 in UK connectnect display. So previously the old system was 10.1 in but it was also you connect 5. This is now 2 in larger.”
“the company offered a 5.7 L Hemi V8. However, the Hemi was discontinued pretty quickly. They only offered it for like a year or two and then 2023 they discontinued it.”
“Remember, 324 horsepower, 332 pound- feet of torque, and we just did 0 to 60 there in 7.36 seconds. Now, I do want to point out that time is going up hill slightly by 3%.”
“I remember the last one that I tested around a year ago was a fully loaded Summit Reserve. That was like $75,000, which I thought was grossly overpriced. Jeep heard my complaints and a lot of everyone else's complaints, and they've significantly reduced down pricing.”

“And the new engine that Jeep put in this vehicle, I was skeptical at first, but I have to admit it is a fantastic engine with a nice refined note, plenty of mid-range grunt, and as you guys saw, a 0 to 60 time that was around a second faster versus the last Pentar V6 that I tested.”
“So, really Jeep is giving us more technology, more power, uh better standard equipment, and at a price that's significantly less versus the pre-refresh models. So, it's kind of a good thing. It's a win-win.”

“If you guys have always had your eye on a Jeep Grand Cherokee, you found the old models were a little too expensive, you need to rethink and take a look at this because Jeep has significantly made this car a lot more competitive in terms of pricing.”
“Towing capacity was a strong suit of the old Cherokee. This model continues that ready to tow up to 3500 lb.”
“As you move around the side profile of the new Cherokee, this vehicle got a nice growth spur, and that was an issue of the previous generation that Jeep wanted to address. Its wheelbase is now 113 in long with a 188.1 in overall length.”
“All of them come with a 12.3 inch UK Connectnect 5 uh software system here. That's their latest software with their infotainment setup. This is a nice upgrade versus the 8.4 in display that you had in the previous generation.”
“Dual zone climate is standard equipment on all Cherokees.”
“Jeep says you have 38 1/2 in of legroom, which is a little bit more versus what you're going to get in the RAV 4, but less versus what you're going to get in like the CRV, the Tigan, for example.”
“Jeep says 8.7 seconds, which is pretty slow. I would estimate this car is probably going to be just under 8 seconds. So, it's going to be a little faster, I think, versus what Jeep claims.”
“In terms of visibility, this is where the Cherokee definitely feels a little bit less, I guess, easy than the some of its rivals. First of all, it's a tweener vehicle, and I'm noticing that the dashboard is a little bit expansive, so the visibility isn't as great.”
“the 0 to 60 time was around 8 seconds. In fact, we managed to do another time at some point, it was around 8.8 seconds.”
