Grand Cherokee in Victoria

The Grand Cherokee is one of Jeep's longest-running success stories, providing a level of two-row comfort and power that's hard to beat in the SUV format. But the good news for Jeep fans is that the all-new 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee has been redesigned and revamped to give an even better experience than before. What can you expect from this brand-new model? Read our review to find out.

Powerful Gas Engine Choices

If you're planning to stick with a proven gas powertrain, the 2022 Grand Cherokee offers two exceptionally powerful options. The lower-level trims are supplied with a hefty 3.6L V6 which makes 293 horsepower and 260lb-ft of torque, an output that pushes extremely close to some popular half-ton trucks on the market. At this level there's a choice between rear-wheel and all-wheel drive, with both options fed by an eight-speed automatic transmission.

However, higher trims offer the option of even more extreme power. A 5.7L Hemi V8 gas engine pushes out 357 horsepower and 390lb-ft, delivering not only excellent acceleration and cruising power but a high-end maximum towing capacity of 3,273kg. Again, this towing power is closer to a truck than a typical SUV.

All-New 4xe Hybrid Powertrain

But perhaps the biggest change for the 2022 Grand Cherokee is the introduction of an all-new hybrid powertrain. The new 4xe options pairs a 2.0L gas turbo engine with two electric motors, delivering a huge combined 375 horsepower and 470lb-ft to the advanced all-wheel drive. According to Jeep, this configuration boasts an all-electric range of up to 40km, alongside a highly attractive fuel economy rating of just 4.1L / 100km.

Plush Interior

Jeep is well known for their vehicles' rugged off-road qualities, but they also equip their SUVs with highly comfortable interiors. The 2022 Grand Cherokee reaches new heights for the model with available options including quilted leather seat upholstery, open-pore wood trims, heated seats in both front and rear, and a massage function for driver and front passenger.

Infotainment Tech

Interior comfort is improved even further by the advanced infotainment technology included across the lineup. Touchscreen display sizes range from 8.4" to 10.1", with an optional second 10.3" touchscreen dedicated to the front passenger. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are both standard for easy wireless smartphone integration, while optional navigation includes both traffic and weather updates delivered in real time.

And lastly, extra display options include a crisp fully digital instrument gauge cluster and a 10.1" head-up display to project essential driving information directly into the driver's field of view.
