Whether you're looking for something sporty and sleek or luxurious and comfortable, there's a Grand Cherokee trim that's perfect for you. Here, we break down the different trims and what they have to offer. Laredo: With a starting MSRP of $39,395, the Laredo is Jeep's entry-level model, but it's far from basic. This puppy comes standard with slim LED horizontal headlights, an 8.4-inch Uconnect 5 infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and more. Altitude: The Altitude starts at $44,105 MSRP and builds on the Laredo with leather upholstery, Satellite Radio, Wi-Fi Hotspot, keyless entry, power steering, and other features. Limited: With a starting MSRP of $46,215, the Limited trim is where things start to get really luxurious. For example, while the Laredo comes with cloth seats, the Limited is upholstered in Capri leather. You also get Quadra-Trac I all-wheel drive and heated seats in the first and second rows to keep everyone toasty. Overland: The Overland has a starting MSRP of $56,305 and is the sportiest and most capable of the bunch. It features a 5.7-liter V8 engine and the advanced Quadra-Trac II four-wheel-drive system. You also get a sport-tuned suspension, which offers some serious off-roading capability. Summit: The Summit is the luxurious top-of-the-line model, starting at $60,070 MSRP. It benefits from massaging front seats, quad-zone automatic climate control, lane-centering assist, traffic sign recognition, driver-attention monitoring, and a surround-view parking camera system. Summit Reserve: The Summit Reserve is the range-topping model and starts at $66,550 MSRP. As the name suggests, this trim is all about luxury and comfort. It offers the ultimate list of features and amenities, including a 19-speaker McIntosh premium audio system, Palermo leather upholstery, and ventilated rear seats. Interior and Cargo Capacity The Jeep Grand Cherokee has always been a comfortable and practical SUV, and the 2023 model is no different. The interior is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for five adults to sit comfortably. The seats are well-cushioned and offer good support. The front seats are particularly comfortable, with plenty of adjustability to help you find the perfect driving position. There's also a generous amount of headroom and legroom, even in the back seats. Creature comforts abound in the 2023 Grand Cherokee, with standard features such as dual-zone automatic climate control, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Higher trims add even more luxury features, such as heated and ventilated front seats, massaging front and back seats, and a 19-speaker premium audio system for the ultimate sound quality. Regarding cargo space, the Grand Cherokee offers 46.9 cubic feet with the rear seats up and a whopping 84.6 cubic feet of space when you fold them down. That's more than enough room for weekend getaways or hauling around large items. If you need even more space, the Grand Cherokee is also available with a trailer-tow package that can tow up to 7200 pounds. Whether you're headed to the mountains or the beach, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has the space and comfort you need to enjoy the ride. Performance and Fuel Economy While most automakers only offer a single engine in their SUVs, the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee has multiple engine options to choose from. While Grand Cherokee fans will be familiar with two of them, there's also a newly available plug-in hybrid in the lineup. The base engine is a 3.6-liter V6 engine that generates 293 horsepower and 257 lb-ft of torque, which is plenty of power for most driving situations. For something more powerful, there's also a 5.7-liter V-8 engine with 357 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque, which is surprisingly the only midsize SUV in the mainstream segment that’s powered by a V-8. For those wanting the best in fuel efficiency, a new plug-in hybrid 4xe model pairs a turbocharged 2-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor. This powertrain is suitable for a combined output of 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle model has an estimated electric-only range of 25 miles and can tow up to 6000 pounds. As you can see, there's an engine option to suit every driver in the Grand Cherokee lineup. So, no matter your needs, there's a Jeep Grand Cherokee that's perfect for you. Safety and Driver-Assistive Features As with most new cars today, the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee comes standard with a host of safety and driver-assistive features, including blind spot monitoring, lane keep assist, and a rear cross-traffic alert system. Higher trims boast a full suite of advanced safety features, such as traffic-sign recognition, parallel and perpendicular park assist, and a surround-view parking camera system. No matter which trim level you choose, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has your safety covered. While the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee hasn't been fully crash-tested by either the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety yet, it's safe to say it will score well in both tests because it's built on a solid foundation with high-strength steel and aluminum. Combined with the advanced safety features mentioned above, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is sure to be one of the safest SUVs on the road. So, there you have it.

Trying to decide between a 2022 Jeep Cherokee and Compass? At first glance, these models seem very similar. You might have trouble deciphering the difference between pictures of these two SUVs, but they have significant differences that can influence which is the right vehicle for you. Make your car shopping journey easier by reading more about a 2022 Jeep Cherokee versus a 2022 Jeep Compass below. View Jeep Compass View Jeep Cherokee Seating and Cargo Capacity 2022 Jeep Compass The 2022 Jeep Compass and Cherokee both feature two rows that can seat up to five passengers. The Cherokee offers 25.8 cubic feet of storage space when the seats are up. You can create more cargo room with the 60/40 split-folding rear seats, which offer a maximum of 54.7 cubic feet when the second row is down. Even though the Compass is a compact SUV, it can offer an impressive 59.8 cubic feet of cargo space. One could argue that the Cherokee is more space-efficient, as it offers a passenger volume of 128 cubic feet versus the Compass's passenger volume of 100 cubic feet. Exterior As a midsize SUV, the 2022 Cherokee is 182 inches long, 73.2 inches wide, and 65.7 inches tall. The 2022 Compass is a slightly smaller compact SUV, with its dimensions being 173 inches long, 73.8 inches wide, and 64.6 inches tall. Drivers appreciate the smaller wheelbase of the Compass, as it can make it easier to park in small spaces and store in garages. If you prefer larger vehicles and want a longer wheelbase that produces a smoother ride, the Cherokee might be the better option. The various trims across these models offer different exterior features, making it important for you to do your research. For instance, automatic high-beam headlamp control is available on the lower Compass Latitude Lux trim but not on the Cherokee Latitude Lux trim. Wheels The Cherokee X, Latitude Lux, and Trailhawk come with 17-inch wheels, with the X's wheels being black and the Latitude Lux's wheels being satin carbon. Wheels on the Trailhawk feature a diamond-cut coat that's also on the Limited's 18-inch wheels. There are even more size options on the 2022 Compass, as the trims feature tires ranging from 16 inches to 19 inches. The wheels on the lower level trims and the High Altitude feature an aluminum coating, whereas the Trailhawk and Limited feature a unique diamond-cut coating. Performance All 2022 Compass trims come with a 2.4-liter Tigershark engine and MultiAir two-valve train system that offers up to 31 mpg on the highway. A combined 177 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque translates to a towing capacity of up to 2,000 pounds, meaning the vehicle can handle off-road adventures. The 2022 Cherokee is even more durable, thanks to its 3.2-liter Pentastar V-6 engine that produces an impressive 271 horsepower and 239 lb-ft of torque. The fuel efficiency is less impressive as it gets around 29 mpg on the highway, but it has a greater towing capacity of around 4,500 pounds. Trim Levels 2022 Jeep Cherokee The 2022 Cherokee is available in four trims, giving drivers some flexibility when deciding which features they want with their vehicle. One major difference is the X, TrailHawk, and Limited come with four-wheel drive. The Latitude Lux is available with four-wheel drive, but you may opt for front-wheel drive if you want improved fuel efficiency. Another difference includes cloth seats in the X versus premium leather-trimmed seats in higher trim levels. While the Cherokee offers decent variety, you get even more flexibility with the 2022 Compass, thanks to the following seven trims: Sport. Latitude. Latitude Lux. Limited. Trailhawk. Red. High Altitude. All Compass trims are available with four-wheel drive, indicating that Jeep designed the Compass to handle off-road adventures like it did the Cherokee. If you prefer front-wheel drive, you can opt for the Sport or Latitude trim. As you move to the higher trim levels, more luxurious features like a panoramic sunroof become available. Price While price isn't the most important feature to consider as you decide between a 2022 Compass and Cherokee, it's worth ensuring that your desired vehicle is within your price range. If you're looking for the cheapest option, the Compass is your best bet. Its base Sport trim has an MSRP starting at $26,390. The cheapest Cherokee is the base X trim, which has an MSRP starting at $33,995. The price difference is due to the Compass being a compact SUV, while the Cherokee is a midsize SUV. Note that there's a greater price range between the Compass trims, meaning it might be a better deal to buy a higher-end Cherokee. For instance, the highest Cherokee trim is only around $5,000 more than its base trim. Compare this difference to the difference between the lowest and highest Compass trims, which is around $10,000. Colors The X, Latitude Lux, and Limited trims for the 2022 Cherokee give you the option of the following exterior colors: Diamond Black. Granite Crystal Metallic. Sting-Gray. Billet Silver Metallic. Slate Blue. Hydro Blue. Velvet Red. Bright White. These colors are available with coats ranging from clear to pearl, and the Cherokee Trailhawk is available in all the colors above except Slate Blue. The 2022 Compass also has plenty of exterior paint options, including some of the ones above with the addition of Laser Blue for the Sport, Latitude, and Latitude Lux trims. The Limited, Trailhawk, and High Altitude trims allow you to choose either a monotone Diamond Black exterior or a two-tone coat with various shade combinations. If you want an even more unique look, opt for the Compass Red Edition with a sleek coat and neutral gray roof rails. At the end of the day, the 2022 Compass and Cherokee are great options for those who want a reliable SUV. Your decision ultimately boils down to how big of a vehicle you want, how much you're willing to spend, where you plan to drive, and what interior features you prioritize.
