About the Jeep Grand Cherokee
Last updated Dec 18, 2024The new WL Jeep Grand Cherokee is now available for sale in its two-row form after a delay, priced from $77,950 before on-road costs. Three variants will be offered at first: Night Eagle, Limited and Overland. All are powered by a naturally aspirated 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 petrol engine.
The Grand Cherokee’s four-wheel drive system now has a front-axle disconnect, and will now send power exclusively to the rear wheels if it detects the road conditions don’t require all-paw traction. Jeep says this therefore reduces drag on the driveline and improves fuel economy.
While the Overland trim is new to the local WL range, there’s still no word of the off-road-oriented Trailhawk joining the range. This is offered in the US exclusively with the 4xe plug-in hybrid powertrain.
