Key Features of the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee
2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo Engine
New to the 2026 model, the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo pairs with a new Gen IV transmission to elevate performance and efficiency across daily drives and demanding hauls. With up to 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, acceleration is confident and smooth, while the transmission’s refined shift logic helps the engine stay in its sweet spot. A best-in-class maximum towing capacity up to 6,200 pounds lets you bring boats, campers, and weekend toys, and the manufacturer’s estimated driving range up to 529 miles means fewer fuel stops between destinations. Whether merging, passing, or climbing grades, the powertrain delivers a quiet assurance that suits the Grand Cherokee’s premium demeanor.
Uconnect 5 NAV 12.3-inch Touchscreen
The newly standard 12.3-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV touchscreen is the heart of the 2026 cabin experience. With built-in navigation, a trial subscription to SiriusXM®, and seamless Apple CarPlay® support and Android Auto™ compatibility, your maps, media, and messages are simple to access. The large display supports clean, customizable layouts and fast response, while available companion screens—like the 10.25-inch Digital Cluster Display and the available 10-inch Head-Up Display—surface key driving info right where you want it. Add the available Digital Rearview Mirror for a high-definition camera view when cargo blocks your rear window, and you’ll appreciate how this digital suite makes every drive calmer and more connected.
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist and Safety Suite
The 2026 Grand Cherokee focuses on situational awareness with robust standard and available safety and security systems. Available Hands-Free Active Driving Assist can allow hands-off operation on compatible roads while monitoring driver attentiveness, and the semiautonomous Active Driving Assist System can make subtle steering and speed adjustments to help keep you centered and distanced. Available Night Vision Camera uses infrared sensors to help identify pedestrians and animals ahead, while the available 360º Surround View Camera provides an aerial perspective for tight parking or technical trails. Additional driver-assist features include Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Pedestrian/Cyclist Detection, Active Lane Management, ParkView® Back Up Camera with ParkSense® Park Assist, and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection.
Quadra-Lift Air Suspension and Selec-Terrain
The available Class-Exclusive Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension System enhances both capability and comfort. It can automatically lower at highway speeds to improve aerodynamics and rise for added clearance on uneven terrain. Pair it with the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System to tailor grip and response for Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow, or Mud/Sand conditions. With available Quadra-Trac I®, Quadra-Trac II®, and Quadra-Drive® II featuring a rear electronic limited-slip differential, you can match drivetrain technology to your terrain and weather. The Grand Cherokee’s exterior geometry also supports serious adventures, with best-in-class available ground clearance, a best-in-class departure angle, and an unsurpassed available ramp breakover angle.
Front Passenger Interactive Touchscreen Display and McIntosh Audio
Front-seat co-pilots get true command with the Class-Exclusive available Front Passenger Interactive Touchscreen Display, a QLED screen that can send route updates to the central touchscreen and manage media without distracting the driver. For audiophiles, the available premium McIntosh® system on Summit models stands out: up to 19 speakers powered by a 17-channel amplifier delivering up to 950 watts and a 10-inch subwoofer for concert-caliber clarity. Available Rear Seat Entertainment with built-in Amazon Fire TV, an available wireless charging pad, and available multicolor ambient LED lighting knit together a cabin that feels both luxurious and practical. Available 16-way power front seats with memory and available massage elevate all-day comfort, while the available Hands-Free Power Liftgate simplifies loading.
