Summary

• Grand Cherokee offers a luxurious blend of functionality and adventure, appealing to a wide audience of SUV buyers.
• The trim levels range from the affordable Laredo to the opulent Summit, fulfilling various luxury needs with advanced features and capabilities.
• Each trim level offers a unique set of standard equipment, from safety features to luxury additions, ensuring a personalized and satisfying SUV experience.

Jeep has had a strong association with SUVs for as long as it has been around. Through its current household nameplates like the Wrangler, Jeep has earned itself a stellar reputation for performance and capability. The Grand Cherokee, however, aims to appeal to a broader audience of SUV buyers.

The Grand Cherokee is a two-row midsize SUV that blends everyday functionality with a bit of adventure. While smaller than the three-row Grand Cherokee L, the regular Grand Cherokee is still incredibly spacious and any passenger would feel at home in its cabin. It may be designed for it to feel most at home on suburban streets, but it wouldn’t be a Jeep if it couldn’t handle some wild terrain as well.

If you’re looking at the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee as a potential option for your next purchase, then our trim level guide will help you narrow down just which model to pick. From pricing to equipment, we comprehensively list exactly what your money gets you, from the base model to the most equipped variant.

In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from Jeep websites and other authoritative sources.

The Mid-Size Grand Cherokee Starts At $36,495 With The Laredo Trim

The first of the Jeep Grand Cherokee trim levels is the Laredo. The base Laredo actually comes in three different forms which have differing equipment. Even in its base form, the Grand Cherokee comes with a ton of standard features that will suit anyone looking for an SUV in this segment.

The Grand Cherokee comes in a decent bit more expensive than some of its rivals, like the Hyundai Palisade and the Kia Telluride. However, it’s pretty on par with some of the more premium offerings from the likes of Toyota and Mazda.

Jeep’s midsize SUV comes with a ton of standard features that will satisfy most buyers looking in this segment without too much customization. A 3.6-liter V-6 powers most Grand Cherokees, with the exception of the PHEV models, producing 293 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. This powertrain puts the Grand Cherokee among some of the best towers in class with a towing capacity of 6,200 pounds, almost as good as the Grand Cherokee L’s 7,200 pounds.

Difference Between The Laredos

The base Laredo A is packed with a ton of standard features, such as 17-inch aluminum wheels, dual-zone climate control, and a bunch of soft-touch materials. The seats are premium cloth, with the driver’s seat being 8-way power-adjustable. An 8.4-inch infotainment display is standard, with a Wi-Fi hotspot trial included. A 10.5-inch digital gauge cluster is also included.

The Laredo trim includes all the same features of the Laredo A as well as a slew of safety features, such as Automatic Emergency Braking, Active Lane Management, Blind-Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross-Path Detection, ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera, and ParkView Rear Park Assist. You also have the option of the Quadra-Trac I Active On-Demand 4×4 System with the Selec-Terrain Traction Management System. The Laredo X includes the same things as well as a single-pane sunroof.

The Limited And Altitude Trims Offer A Good Mix Of Value And Luxury

If the base amenities aren’t enough for you and you’re looking for something with a little more luxury, then the Limited and Altitude trims offer a higher level of quality. The jump in price is substantial, but Jeep has ensured that the Grand Cherokee has all the equipment it needs to take on its rivals. These pair of trims are perfect for those looking for a family-oriented SUV, of which the Grand Cherokee is one of the best.

Grand Cherokee Altitude

The 2024 Grand Cherokee Altitude comes in a little more expensive than the base Laredo, but it offers a more premium experience inside and out. The 17-inch aluminum wheels are swapped out for 18-inch gloss black wheels which match the gloss black exterior accents.

On the inside, cloth seats are a thing of the past. Instead, the Altitude’s seats feature leatherette upholstery. The front seats are also heated as standard, as is the leather-wrapped steering wheel. Remote start has also become a standard feature, allowing you to fire up your car with the push of a button.

As is the case with the Laredo, the X version of the Altitude gets all the same features along with a single-pane glass sunroof.

Adding another layer of luxury is the Limited. Everything that was standard on the Altitude was moved over to the Limited with a few changes. Premium leather is used for all the seating and the second row also gets access to heated seats. The power-liftgate also makes loading and unloading the Grand Cherokee Limited much easier.

The infotainment screen also gets an upgrade. Instead of the standard 8.4-inch screen on the previous trims, the Limited gets access to a bigger 10.1-inch screen. As well as this, a premium six-speaker sound system is included.

If You Yearn For a Luxurious Adventure, Then The 2024 Grand Cherokee Overland Is For You

The Overland trim of the 2024 Grand Cherokee may sound a little more rugged than it actually is. While it does have some upgraded capability, it mostly improves on the luxury of the previous trims rather than being equipped with the high-end off-road equipment you would see in something like the Wrangler.

The Overland trim makes another big leap in pricing over the previous trim. However, it has a ton of features to justify its price, with its interior being more capable of taking on high-end luxury SUVs.

To start, the Overland trim sports fancier 20-inch fully polished aluminum wheels. The interior gets fitted with an air of opulence, with the trim being Nappa leather decking the seating, which is both heated and ventilated as standard. As well as this you gain access to a hands-free liftgate and ambient lighting which is customizable. The sunroof in the Overland is also dual-pane.

Quadra-Trac II

The only place where the Overland does get some additional capability is in its driveline. Where other trims could choose between rear-wheel drive or the Quadra-Trac four-wheel drive system, the Overland comes standard with Quadra-Trac II. Some features of this system are listed below. The Grand Cherokee may value on-the-road comfort, but at its heart, it’s still a Jeep and still has enough capability to conquer the off-road.

Quadra-Trac II Features

• Fully automatic high-range
• Active electronic transfer case
• Rear electronic limited-slip differential
• Four low mode locks front and rear driveshafts for low-speed power, rock crawling, and towing
• Neutral mode capability

Jeep Targets Luxury Mid-Size SUVs With The Grand Cherokee Summit

The final trim level in the 2024 Grand Cherokee arsenal is the Summit. While every Grand Cherokee has proven that American manufacturers like Jeep have the chops to take on European and East Asian automakers, the Summit takes this to the next level and proves to be one of the most opulent mid-size SUVs you can buy.

The 2024 Grand Cherokee Summit is not for those with a small budget. With a price in the mid-$60,000s, the Summit is as much as a brand-new BMW X5. It holds on to the best features of the previous models and continues to impress with its excellent list of features and interior styling.

Summit VS Summit Reserve

Jeep’s 2024 Grand Cherokee Summit pushes comfort to another level. Four-zone climate control has become standard equipment, as does a nine-speaker Alpine premium audio system. The front seats retain the Nappa leather but become 16-way power-adjustable; they are also fitted with memory foam and a massage feature. Active Driving Assist, Drowsy Driver Detection, and Traffic Sign Recognition have also been added to the long list of driver assist features.

Unlike some of the other trims, the jump from the Summit to the Summit reserve is quite substantial. Nappa leather is out and in comes top-of-the-line Palermo leather. The wheels are swapped out for 21 inch polished alloy. A 19-speaker premium McIntosh audio system also offers unrivaled sound quality. Parallel/Perpendicular Park, Assist Intersection Collision Assist, and a 360-degree Surround View Camera are added to the list of driver assist features.
