The 2026 Grand Cherokee: The Benchmark, Sharpened

The headline is the new 2.0-liter Hurricane 4 Turbo engine, which delivers 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, more muscle than the outgoing V6, while returning 23 mpg combined and a best-in-class driving range of 529 miles. Hooked to the available Trailer Tow Package, it pulls a best-in-class 6,200 pounds, and the returning 4xe plug-in hybrid adds electric-first commuting with up to 6,000 pounds of towing of its own.
Capability remains the family signature. Available Quadra-Trac and Quadra-Drive 4×4 systems, selectable terrain modes, and available air suspension take snow, gravel, and genuine off-road trails in stride.
