2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Best-in-class 6,200-lb towing, a new 10.1-inch touchscreen and 10 trims, starting at $41,515.
Key Numbers
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a two-row, five-passenger midsize SUV built on Jeep's Quadra-Trac 4x4 systems, with a starting price of $41,515 on the Laredo trim, a standard 3.6L V6 making 293 horsepower, and a best-in-class maximum tow rating of 6,200 pounds when properly equipped, available on every engine. Buyers who need a third row can step into the Grand Cherokee L body instead, covered on its own page linked below. For 2027, the lineup grows to 10 trims as the Trailhawk and Overland return, two new trims join at the Laredo Upland and Limited Altitude, and the base Laredo and Laredo X pick up a larger standard touchscreen.
Jeep Portsmouth is a Jeep-only store on Lafayette Road, which means the sales team lives in this lineup every day and isn't steering a Grand Cherokee shopper toward a different brand's crossover. The team can walk a buyer through every trim on the lot, get a real number on a trade, and get a Grand Cherokee ordered ahead of its late-2026 arrival if the configuration a buyer wants isn't sitting on the lot yet.
Two engines carry the 2027 Grand Cherokee, and which one a buyer gets depends on trim rather than a standalone choice.
The base engine is a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 rated at 293 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired with a Gen IV 8-speed automatic transmission. It's the engine under every Laredo and Laredo X on the lot, and it's rated for the same 6,200-lb maximum tow as the upgrade engine when properly equipped.
Every trim above Laredo X (Laredo Altitude, Laredo Upland, Limited and up) comes standard with Jeep's 2.0-liter Hurricane 4 Turbo four-cylinder, rated at 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, more of both than the V6 despite the smaller displacement. It shares the same Gen IV 8-speed automatic and the same 6,200-lb best-in-class tow rating, and Jeep rates a properly equipped 2027 Grand Cherokee with the Hurricane engine for a 529-mile driving range on a tank.
EPA combined fuel economy runs 22 mpg on 2WD Hurricane models and 22 mpg on 2WD V6 models (23 city / 26 highway turbo 2WD; 19 city / 26 highway V6 2WD), per fueleconomy.gov. 4WD models run slightly behind 2WD on both engines. Every Grand Cherokee runs on regular unleaded out of a 23-gallon tank.
Ten trims carry the 2027 Grand Cherokee, from a $41,515 Laredo to a $62,895 Summit, plus a $1,995 destination charge. Two of the ten, Laredo Altitude and Limited Altitude, are new for 2027 and Jeep hasn't published a starting price for either yet; Jeep Portsmouth can pull current pricing and availability on both. The Trims Compared page breaks down every trim's standard equipment and packages in full; this is the short version.

Laredo is the lowest-cost way into a new Grand Cherokee at $41,515, running the 3.6L V6, Quadra-Trac I 4x4, and, new for 2027, the larger 10.1-inch touchscreen that used to be an 8.4-inch screen on this trim.
Laredo Upland is a new trim for 2027, borrowing its look from the Trailhawk: 18-inch Trailhawk-inspired wheels, all-terrain tires, a Trailhawk-style front fascia with Vapor Gray tow hooks, a body-color painted roof, and Capri leatherette and suede seating, all at $49,990, well under Trailhawk's own price.
Both trims return to the 2027 lineup after being absent in 2026. Trailhawk ($54,995) is the Trail Rated off-road trim with Quadra-Lift air suspension and a 2-speed transfer case; Overland ($57,895) carries the same air suspension and 2-speed case in a road-touring trim, with a standard hands-free power liftgate. Jeep has flagged both for later availability in the model year rather than immediate arrival.
Summit sits at the top of the range for $62,895, and the cabin is the reason: a McIntosh sound system comes standard, something no other 2027 Grand Cherokee trim offers.
Every 2027 Grand Cherokee gets a real touchscreen upgrade this year. Laredo and Laredo X move from an 8.4-inch screen to a 10.1-inch screen as standard, and every trim can be optioned up to a 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 NAV touchscreen with built-in navigation, a SiriusXM trial, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Summit adds the standard McIntosh premium audio system described above. Available driver-assist tech includes Hands-Free Active Driving Assist, which comes standard on any trim running the Hurricane engine, so it isn't available on Laredo or Laredo X.
The 2-row Grand Cherokee seats up to five, with 37.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and 70.8 cubic feet with the second row folded, enough for a Costco run for a family of five or a set of golf bags and a cooler for a Winnipesaukee weekend. Buyers who need to seat six or seven regularly should look at the Grand Cherokee L instead, covered on its own overview and in the Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L comparison. Every trim from Laredo Altitude up runs the more powerful Hurricane engine, and interior trim and materials step up meaningfully by the time a buyer reaches Overland or Summit: real leather, heated and ventilated seating, and the McIntosh audio system on Summit specifically.
The 2027 Grand Cherokee is rated for a best-in-class maximum of 6,200 pounds when properly equipped, on either engine and either body style, properly equipped; Jeep's own comparison chart puts that ahead of the segment's usual rivals. That's enough for a mid-size boat and trailer on the Route 16 run up to Lake Winnipesaukee, or a pop-up camper for a White Mountains weekend, without needing to step up to a truck-sized vehicle. Laredo's available max payload, properly equipped, runs 1,280 pounds. Every trim above Laredo X can be optioned with Quadra-Lift air suspension (standard on Trailhawk, Overland and Summit), which raises ride height for towing and loading. The Specs page has the full capacity table by configuration.
Three 4x4 systems carry the lineup: Quadra-Trac I, Quadra-Trac II, which steps up the low-range capability on higher trims, and Quadra-Drive II, available at the top of the range. Selec-Terrain lets a driver switch among Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow and Mud/Sand modes with a single dial. Trailhawk is the Trail Rated trim, adding the 2-speed transfer case and Quadra-Lift air suspension that give it real clearance and articulation over the standard trims, useful on a Seacoast winter when a nor'easter turns Route 1 into a slush field, not just a trailhead feature. Every 2027 Grand Cherokee is also flat-tow capable when properly equipped, for owners who tow it behind an RV.
A Seacoast commute means fog rolling off the water on Route 1A, headlights glaring through sideways rain on the Spaulding Turnpike, and a downtown Seacoast parking garage with a tighter turning radius than most drivers are used to. It's worth sorting the 2027 Grand Cherokee's driver-assist features by what they're actually solving rather than by a spec-sheet list.
For the commute itself, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go takes over the throttle and brakes in Route 1 traffic between Portsmouth and Exeter, while Intersection Collision Assist watches cross-traffic at the kind of unmarked side-street junctions common around the Seacoast's older town centers.
For low-visibility driving, a Digital Rearview Mirror replaces the reflection a wet or fogged-up back window would otherwise ruin, and Drowsy Driver Detection catches the kind of fatigue that shows up on a long Route 101 haul back from inland New Hampshire.
For parking downtown or backing a trailer down a boat ramp, the 360-degree Surround View Camera and Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist do the spatial work a mirror alone can't, particularly useful at a tight Peirce Island ramp or a cramped Market Square space.
Summit carries the widest standard spread of this equipment in the lineup.
Ten trims is a lot to sort through. Here's how it breaks down by what a buyer actually needs:
A well-equipped Grand Cherokee that most Seacoast buyers cross-shop, a Limited or Limited Reserve with the Hurricane engine, typically lands between $46,955 and $54,550 before options, properly equipped. Jeep Portsmouth can walk through current lot availability against any of the five profiles above.
Jeep Portsmouth is a Jeep-only store on Lafayette Road (Route 1), which means the sales and service teams specialize in this lineup rather than splitting attention across a full Chrysler-Dodge-Ram floor. For Seacoast buyers in Portsmouth, Dover, Exeter, Somersworth and Rochester, that means a team that can speak specifically to how the Grand Cherokee's 4x4 systems, ground clearance and towing capacity hold up through a coastal winter and a Route 16 boat run to Lake Winnipesaukee, not a generalized pitch. With Trailhawk, Overland, Laredo Altitude and Limited Altitude all arriving later in the model year, Jeep Portsmouth can also get a specific configuration on order ahead of its lot arrival rather than a buyer waiting and hoping the right one shows up.
The 2027 Grand Cherokee starts at $41,515 for the Laredo trim and runs to $62,895 for the top Summit trim, plus a $1,995 destination charge. Two new-for-2027 trims, Laredo Altitude and Limited Altitude, don't have a published starting price yet. Jeep Portsmouth can provide current pricing on both.
Laredo and Laredo X run a standard 3.6L Pentastar V6 (293 hp, 260 lb-ft). Laredo Altitude and every trim above it run a standard 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo (324 hp, 332 lb-ft). Both pair with a Gen IV 8-speed automatic and are rated for the same 6,200-lb maximum tow.
Up to 6,200 pounds when properly equipped, a best-in-class rating that applies to either engine and either body style.
Yes. Trailhawk was absent from the 2026 lineup and returns for 2027, along with the Overland trim. Jeep has flagged both for later availability within the model year rather than immediate arrival, so confirm current stock and order timing with Jeep Portsmouth.
Trailhawk and Overland return after a year away, Laredo Upland and Limited Altitude join as new trims, and Laredo and Laredo X get a standard 10.1-inch touchscreen in place of the previous 8.4-inch screen.
Not the standard 2-row Grand Cherokee. Buyers who need seating for six or seven should look at the Grand Cherokee L, a longer three-row body sold alongside the standard Grand Cherokee. See the Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L comparison for the full breakdown.
The L is a stretched three-row version of the same Grand Cherokee, adding a third row of seating and more cargo room behind it, at roughly a $2,000 premium trim-for-trim. The full comparison is on the Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L page.
