2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L News: Will Jeep Grand Cherokee Change In 2024?Jeep Grand Cherokee has been a part of our automotive history for decades, whether it’s a car, truck, or SUV. Jeep introduced the three-row version of its Grand Cherokee more than 30 years ago. It took Jeep five generations to compete with newer competitors that offered more comfort and space. Grand Cherokee L measures about one foot longer than standard models, allowing for an extra row of seats and up to seven people, which is more than any Jeep except the Wagoneer.

Jeep is unlikely to introduce any major changes in 2024. The Grand Cherokee L debuted alongside the 5th-gen Grand Cherokee only a few short years prior. We wouldn’t exclude the possibility of a rugged Trailhawk model or the 4xe hybrid plug-in from the Grand Cherokee L line. 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L News

Review

Jeep unveiled its 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new generation, this week. It will be available in three-row “L” form with seven seats, and a five-seat two-row version in two years.

Jeep enthusiasts have one burning question: When will Jeep’s high-performance SRT, Trackhawk, and Trackback versions be revealed? And what will their looks be like?

This is our version of the fire-breathing, supercharged latter, using the newly-debuted Grand Cherokee L, but in sportier Overland styling.

The arches are adorned with wide wheel-arch flares and black alloy wheels covered in Pirelli rubber. Brembo high-performance brakes were also borrowed from the current generation Trackhawk.

The next-generation Trackhawk is lower than the Grand Cherokee L. It also features larger air intakes and vents under the grille, as seen on the SRT/Trackhawk, black trim, and lower LED running lights.

The performance SUV will be powered by a version 6.2 liter V8 supercharged petrol engine, which is also used in the Trackhawk, as well as a variety of FCA models (including the Durango, Charger, and Durango SRT Hellcat trifecta) and Ram 1500 TRX.

It produces 522kW in power and 868Nm torque for the current Australian Trackhawks. A power increase is likely to be on the cards with any new generation model. This could match the Dodge Challenger Hellcat’s 535kW power output and its 889Nm torque, or even the Challenger Redeye full-fat, but sub-Demon, which has 594kW power and 959Nm torque.

This is assuming that the Grand Cherokee L Trackhawk ever makes it to the market. A seven-seater supercharged Jeep could cannibalize sales of Fiat Chrysler’s other supercharged seven-seat SUV, the Dodge Durango Hellcat.

It is likely that the Trackhawk version will be the five-seat Grand Cherokee of the future generation, due for production to begin in late 2021. However, it won’t arrive in Australia before 2022.

Jeep is yet to confirm a Trackhawk version with five or seven seats of the new SUV. However, the supercharged variant will likely arrive (but not necessarily confirmed) after both the five-seat regular model and the 6.4-liter naturally aspirated SRT.

Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is only available in 2024 with a 4xe Plug-in Hybrid Powertrain. The Limited and Overland trims of the Grand Cherokee L and Grand Cherokee now include the 10.1″ touchscreen as standard, and the Alpine and McIntosh sound systems (Limited, Overland, and Summit) are available separately.

Standard Grand Cherokee interiors are attractively designed but lack features. They feature a lot of gloss black accents and have smooth surfaces. The base model comes with a heated steering wheel, and the higher trims add heated seats. Summit Reserve’s interior is borderline debauched.

The Grand Cherokee can be equipped in a variety of ways, from a conventionally technological vehicle to showcasing the latest gadgets. Base Grand Cherokee features an 8.4-inch Uconnect system that includes wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and 6-speaker audio. This system can be upgraded with a 10.1-inch touchscreen and navigation system as well as either a top-of-the-line McIntosh or Alpine audio system. The Grand Cherokee offers Bluetooth, WiFi, USB A, USB Type-C, and HDMI inputs.

The Grand Cherokee L with rear seat entertainment and the Summit Reserve package will have more USB ports available than any owner could ever use (prove us wrong). The 10.25-inch infotainment display on the passenger side offers comfort and entertainment options to front-row passengers.

Price

Starting prices for the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Laredo and Altitude are $41,395 and $46,105 respectively. Limited trims start at $48,215 and rugged Overland starts at $58,305.
