What the Critics Say
What’s New For 2026
Plenty of exciting changes have been made to the versatile three-row Jeep Grand Cherokee L for the 2026 model year. With the exception of the lower trim levels, the Grand Cherokee L sports a fresh exterior look with updated front and rear bumpers and an all-new front grille. Under the hood, the Grand Cherokee L is now available with a more powerful 2.0L Hurricane Turbo 4-cylinder engine featuring best-in-class towing ratings and capabilities. When it comes to infotainment, the Grand Cherokee L is now offered with a larger 12.3-inch center touchscreen and an innovative 10.3-inch touchscreen for the front passenger to control the action.
Jeep Grand Cherokee L Features
Go-Anywhere Capability
Built on a reputation for conquering some of the world’s most difficult terrain, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L is engineered with signature Trail Rated® performance capabilities. Included as standard is a proven 3.6L Pentastar™ V6 Variable Valve Timing (VVT) engine cranking out 293 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. When you need more power, you can also upgrade to the optional 2.0L Hurricane 4-Cylinder Turbo that cranks out an impressive 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. This comes paired with a responsive 8-speed automatic transmission. Every Grand Cherokee L proudly wears the Trail Rated® badge, proof that they’re ready to excel in 5 key areas – traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording. Its available class-exclusive Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension System can automatically lower the vehicle at highway speeds or raise the vehicle to clear obstacles when driving off-road. When properly equipped, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L also boasts a maximum towing capacity of up to 6,200 pounds.
Three-Row Luxury
What separates the Jeep Grand Cherokee L from the rest of the model range is its spacious yet luxurious interior that boasts three-row seating for up to 7 passengers. Second-row bucket seats and an available second-row center console provide the perfect space for your valuables. At the touch of a button, the power-folding third-row bench can be lowered for carrying cargo or be raised when you need to transport the whole team across town for soccer practice. Or, fold both the second and third rows down to create a cavernous 84.6 cubic feet of maximum cargo space. Drivers can keep an eye on things using the available rear-seat monitoring camera for greater peace of mind. Views of each back row feature zoom capabilities and are displayed directly on the Uconnect® 5 touchscreen. Optional genuine Nappa leather upholstery and an available McIntosh® 19-speaker, 950-watt Audio System are just two examples of the first-class amenities offered inside the luxurious Jeep Grand Cherokee L.
Innovative Technology
Setting the industry benchmark for technology and multimedia access, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L offers an impressive list of connectivity features. It all starts with the revolutionary Uconnect® 5 infotainment system that features an optional 10.25-inch touchscreen display along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. Front-seat passengers can take part in the experience thanks to the class-exclusive front passenger screen that can control the available rear entertainment system or even send commands to the main touchscreen. Other clever tech features include a digital rearview mirror, a 10-inch head-up display, and a wireless charging pad. Peace of mind also comes standard thanks to an impressive array of safety features inside the Grand Cherokee L. Highlights include an available Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist System, Night Vision, 360º Surround View Camera, and Active Driving Assist.
