I special ordered a ‘14 Summit 5.7L and have 166,000+mi on it and still love it like the day I bought it! But the “L” is growing on me. I agree the front grill should be a little taller though. I’m going for 300Kmi so the 2nd Gen “L” would probably be my next move 🤣. Thanks for the professional yet relaxed review! You two are polished and easy to watch!

Great review! I’ve been waiting for the new Grand Cherokee redesign for awhile now . As a 3 Grand Cherokee prior owner: 2016 Pentastar , 2018 5.7 , SRT 2019 and 4 Tesla Performance owner , I am excited for the fully electric but will settle for the hybrid for now. I’ll wait upon that review and hope it a strong performer !!

Just grabbed a Black Overland for my wife. she loves it!

14:51 I appreciate your question and get why many people would feel that way. My answer is: The benefits of the top level GC off-road capability in my beloved “Mall Crawler” and the GCL appeals to someone like me. I live in NY near the top of a mountain 1mi up a 1 lane private gravel road. Snow storms can exceed QL2 height even though the bottom of the Mt gets a mere 6”. Neighbors get stuck in the drainage ditch trying to get home - and call me to tow them out. And on occasion I have had to take “alternate route” to avoid a fallen tree during the many rain storms we see. Yes, occasional and seasonal but with a 3yr old onboard it is nice to have the capability if an unplanned event or unexpected storm hits on the way home.

You guys are becoming my favorite car reviewers. Keep up the great work.

Wow, thanks!

I "wanted" a wrangler until I drove one. I am 6'5". Just too small for me to fit comfortably on long drives, and very expensive for a bare bones off roader. I looked at a Cherokee. Love the look, but the factory has shut down due to chip shortage and its due for a redesign. I ended up with a Grand Cherokee L Limited with lux group II and all other options. I love it. Can run fire roads, ghost town wagon trails and horribly broken Montana "pavement" and it is supremely comfortable. Coming out of a 2014 Camaro, I can't believe how good this thing is.

OMG my question was featured :D Great review! I would go for the short wheel base Grand Cherokee. Like its proportions and ease of use more.

Just picked up a '23 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Overland with the 5.7L V8. We test drove both the V6 and V8, and the V8 was by far the superior choice for the smooth power delivery. You do take a hit in fuel economy, but I felt that was worth the extra fuel.

I was looking for a regular length and a lower trim with the Hemi coming form a last gen V6 GC, but found a great deal on a 2022 L with the Hemi in Summit Reserve trim with a bit higher than average km (mostly highway). I was sold on the drive/handling for such an off-road capable vehicle. Agree about the Hemi. The V6 is more than adequate for sure but for the higher trims, the smooth power delivery of the Hemi with that fantastic ZF transmission gives it that luxury feel. The new hurricane engine should be a good replacement for the V8 in the future.

I agree with Zack 100% on the looks, the grill needs to be taller and the lower intake needs to be scaled down and the overall side view is kind of blah so it being longer is not a great look. As for air suspension, I haven’t heard anyone say they love it when it’s -40 and the suspension is hard as a rock. I was going to buy a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk but the dealer talked me out of it partly due to the air suspension so I went with the Altitude. I just couldn’t wait for the GC refresh. There’s still companies out there that specialize in converting these air suspensions back to a conventional setup so that should say something.

Last comment, as a Genesis owner, 2015 Hyundai Genesis for many years now and I love my car, it’s been pretty reliable, I think I would get this over the GV80

Really love this car. I hope they can bring this to Indonesia 🇮🇩. It suits well for Indonesians because 7-seater cars are well loved.

Just bought 2023 grand Cherokee limited First, we had an issue with our trunk door being unevenly closed, which more likely will cause water damage, they fixed it under the warranty but it was not an easy task going through with dealerships, customer service, or the service center. Anyways after that issue was fixed, AC blew out hot air randomly, had to make an appointment with the dealer, and had to talk to Jeep customer care, going back and forth 8 times to the dealer, but it has not been fixed. All they saying is sorry, and to be patient, all I did was be nice and patient with the dealers and Jeep customer care. It’s been my worst nightmare won't buy anything from them ever again! Bbb

I think you guys nailed it. We had been waiting for your review but pulled the trigger a few weeks ago. Looked at just about all other 3-rows out there. Not much that can tow and provide a nice almost high end interior. I really like the functionality of the infotainment system and how it blends into the dash. I agree too much piano black but other than that no complaints. I’m even ok with the dial shifter (which was a deal breaker for the new MDX with a push button). Would have liked the 4xe version but not sure if this will be available as a 3-row model.

@mrdelaney5169

Agree with you on the towing and luxury interior. We've been shopping 3 row suvs now for a couple months and this is top of our list. How are you liking yours after 2 years now?

Got the overland a few days ago and it is much nicer with that air suspension system compare to other midsize suv.

What they don't say about the air suspension. I got an overland a couple years back. It is cool, it drops down to like 3 inches when you park, and lifts up to almost 1 foot in the highest setting which you can control. The catch is when you go over 25 mph, which is all the time, it automatically drops into Aero mode which is a significantly lower ride height than a standard grand Cherokee. I live in Minnesota, and I'm going 40mph in a snow storm and cheaper model Cherokees are passing me with ease because I'm plowing snow with my bumper. Also in 4wd that v6 is working hard to stay up to speed. Not enough power for that drivetrain, get the hemi option you'll want it. Surprisingly you get the same mpgs, but actually better mpg with the hemi in 4x4. No air suspension available......I say no problem. It is a softer ride, but your ride height is is that of a sedan. Kind of tricks people because you get an suv thinking your sitting up higher, but with the air ride your not.

Bravo Andrea !

I can’t wait to see one. They definitely look somewhat stretched. I don’t think, at least not in this case, the extra length was needed. Design or off-road performance-wise. But from the front and rear ... it looks like a Jeep. Well done them. The older classic Subaru Outbacks ( Limited’s w/bigger power plant) had a McIntosh sound system - I doubt it provided, even remotely, the same quality of sound ... and definitely not 19 speakers! Thanks for the video.

Just dropped off a 2 day rental of a Grand Cherokee L. Decent power and some very nice features (comfortable, adjustable and massaging front seats a huge plus) but for a vehicle costing $75K there’s way too much hard plastic in the interior, especially on the centre console and door panels. The button layout was very confusing as well - e.g no apparent way to control volume or audio select from the steering wheel buttons. And while the wireless Apple CarPlay is nice, do NOT use the wireless charging pad with a MagSafe iPhone/iPhone case. I was driving along using google maps when suddenly I lost CarPlay connectivity. Turns out the phone had overheated on the charging pad and shut down!

I had a cherokee decades ago, to disengage the 4x4, you had to drive in reverse until the light went off telling you it was disengaged. Depending on how the vehicle was that day, sometimes you had to back it up a good distance.

Quick question. The only off roading i would be doing is on the sand on the coasts of n.c and obx. And maybe some snow on some mountain roads. I'd hate to have to pay the price of an overland editions if the limited edition would do the job with quadra trac 1 and snow and sand mode. Which one would you recommend

Does summit come standard with a electronic limited slip differential?

Hate to hurt your feelings Zack, but Andrea has dramatically improved your reviews. Second input, and she never gets the details wrong

does the under 300 numbers on HP and Torque suffice for a massive vehicle such as this, especially compared to how a lot of competition is over 300hp and close to 350torque? I like the luxury feeling in Jeep in both the L and the standard version. where does the L get more space, the rear seats or elsewhere? I will be in the market next year for a 3 row SUV and your reviews are going to be massively helpful. Right now it's the Palisade and starting to consider the atlas after realizing it actually offers the most 3rd row space. in my opinion, standard bench mid row and 2 seater 3rd row is the most comfortable configuration. thoughts?

I'd love to see this compared vs the Lincoln Aviator.

Well explained . This or the Telluride ?

when will the next batch of colors become available?

I agree with Zack, not a fan of the front end.. But the rest of the vehicle looks good.

Great review, guys! I hope “night life” isn’t going away. 👍 from BC

Offroad prowess aside (like Andrea said, I would never take something this expensive on anything more than a dirt road), for everyday driving and all other considerations, this Jeep Grand Cherokee L or Acura MDX in upper trims both?

I think it's closest competitor is the Acura MDX. A base MDX is the same price as a Grand Cherokee L Limited.

does it bigger than the LR discovery?

I have the top tier trim level of the JCL and it’s incredible.

That’s hugely disappointing that it only has 84 cu ft of cargo space behind the first row. My wife wants something larger than our QX60 for the next vehicle (I think it’s 78 cu ft), and sits higher (less car like). I thought this GC L might be it being a Jeep. Something a bit smaller than a Yukon/Armada size that still might sit a bit higher like a traditional SUV. Atlas isn’t an option for me at this point (just found the interior cheap looking - not sure if it got updated, and not so sure of VW quality lately). The new GW’s C pillar is just so awkward looking - hopefully it looks better in person - but right now I wouldn’t even consider it (well, and that price is ridiculous). Looks like Armada might still be our next pick. Great review as usual. :-)

No thirsty Thursday! U fired! 😂

jeep has come a long way 👍👍..

How is JD Power rating Jeep lately? I agree with Zack, more grill and maybe some woodgrain! How about a diesel?

Well you should first compare all the different front end. I like the summit one.

We have a 5 passenger RX350 at the moment and looking to move up to a 7 passenger. I don’t understand why we need to pay extra for the bench second row when the starting price for JGCL is already too high…I can’t justify paying over 40K to gain one extra seat.

So I have to give a little of a knock to jeep for the infotainment screen I think the 10" should be standard I mean they are pushing for luxury and I think there should be an available 12" screen to me that's a big selling point

What you think about Toyota 4runner ?

Will it last like the old Jeep?

What platform is this based off / shared with? This guy is finally no longer tied to Daimler I assume

Does it come with Diesel engine??

Very appealing, but lacks Hybrid/4XE option.

The second row bench seat should not be an upcharge! 😕. Ford did the same thing with the Explorer giving you captain seats by default and making you pay extra for a bench.

This is on our list but they cut some features out due to the chip crisis. We are waiting a year.

Im patiently waiting for the 4xe GC without the 3rd row lol

Yes yes yes

While these Cherokees have a much more softened design than the old 'truck' look they used to have, they aren't as homogenized as some of their competition. They've retained some of their 'squareness' which I like. They look a little too much like a Durango tho, but then 'Chrysler' has always put out various models under different names and Badges with minor differences between models. I agree with you about Piano Black...the stuff is horrible.

If you can absolutely wait to buy a new car wait until the model year 2023 the chip shortage should be over and you should be able to get the options that you want

No diesel?

We currently own a Pacifica to haul our Golden Retriever and Bernese Mountain Dog. I would like to add an suv to the family for inclement weather days going to dog shows. A flat floor is a must for all rows as crates will go into the vehicle. Would you recommend this Jeep or the VW Atlas? Or is there a unicorn out there I am missing?

Just announced last week

We just got one as our main family car, the Summit Reserve. I agree with the competitor list for the most part, but would remove the Durango and replace it with the Ford Explorer. IMO, every trim below Overland competes with the Explorer and Telluride. And I believe the upper trims compete with the MDX and QX60. Finally, the maxed out Summit Reserve competes directly with the Lincoln Aviator. I say that because we shopped the Aviator first because of it's combination of size, power and luxury. The GCL Summit Reserve w/ the Hemi V8 matches the Aviator in it's own Reserve trim shot for shot, all at about $7K less than the Aviator comparably built. What sold us on the GCL aside from cost was the car seat tilt function on the 2nd row, which makes it ideal for small children. The Aviator doesn't have that feature. This is where the QX60 competes as it has the same car seat tilt. And its around $3K less than the GCL, while offering roughly the same luxury experience. Where the GCL beat the QX60 is power and rear bias/driving dynamics. Summed up, the GCL simply doesn't fall down in any category.

they will sell a boatload of these same as the old one...looks ok to me..and the Grand Wagoneer...ah bit over the top..IMO..same as Escalade and Navigator..but hey..its your money,,

The grand wagoneer should be an extended wheelbase and just not the same as the wagoneer

Might sounds crazy but one of the several reasons I went with a fully loaded Telluride over this is that I have more faith in the Telluride's reliability over Jeep.

@mrdelaney5169

Not crazy was also considering the same but after driving both back to back the jeep ride quality was noticeably better (quieter and smoother) which is due to better quality suspension and windows/doors.

Ok had to add my 2 cents after having a JEEP GCL as a rental for a week. Our rental was a Limited V6 without any options, car had about 7000km on it. First of all, I didn't know that such a poor transmission exists in modern times. Clunky shifts, poor shift timing, slow down shifting all plagued out rental. Not to mention with the start stop activated, the jolt you would get everytime the driveline engaged after the engine restarted. Awful. On top of that, the door pockets were very shallow and why do the interior lights only stay on for about 60sec.. hardly enought time to get two screaming kids buckled in to their car seats in a dark parkade. Oh, lets not forget the clunk from the front end over bumps(possibly failed shocks), sad on such a new car. Otherwise, the suspension calibration was nice. comfortable and compliant. the seats were comfy also, i set them once and didn't have to re-adjusted them. interior quality was nice as well. There are better 3 row options out there luckily
