Starting in 1993 to current, Jeep created a new class of SUV buyer. Sure, most can afford the mid $40s of a Laredo or Limited, but there is a large segment of well-heeled buyers that don't care about the luxury nameplate, but will in fact buy fully loaded JGCs because of brand recognition, capability, interior offerings that match the luxury brands, and better overall resale value/insurance costs. Im all things Mopar, but Jeep has got to get with the times and offer both the 4Xe and Hurricane on the GC. We all love the HEMI, but it is just as thirsty in the GC as it is on the 1000 pound heavier Wagoneer.

The best buy in the GC-L is the Overland trim with the 5.7L V8. Picked up one a few weeks ago for $56K. The V8 provides plenty of power for a vehicle of this size/weight. I've been averaging around 16mpg in city, 19mpg on the hwy. Fortunately, gas is cheap where I live, currently $2.69 for 89 octane fuel.

I was debating between Grand Cherokee L and Toyota Grand Highlander. But one thing many reviewer do not count it is: there is dealer markup on Grand Highlander. It is a straightforward markup of $3-7k. With that markup the Grand Highlander becomes less valued actually. And worse yet, I could not find one to test drive. I have to order from factory based on the virtual information available online. I think the price of high reliability of Toyota has already being baked in. Jeep is the iconic American SUV. I think we all buy cars solely based on practicality or everyone should get an minivan.

Hi Alex. Good review video for 2023-2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee L in the Summit trim. Overall, Jeep did a great job making this grneration vehicle get higher levels of recognition. What they did first was when this fifth generation got released couple years ago, they released the third row L version first due to the fact that lots of Jeep Grand Cherokee fans were asking for a Grand Cherokee offering third row seating. Asking for it since the third generation. Generally speaking, there's no such thing as the perfect vehicle. There are couple things Jeep need to improve on for the Jeep Grand Cherokee L. However, Jeep delivered by offering some features, utility and flexibility that are MIA from the competition either mainstream or luxury brand makers. Five months back in July I was able to purchase the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee L in the Summit Reserve trim. Mine is nicely equipped with the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine. Between this engine and the 3.6 liter Pentastar V6, it's basically a night and day difference. Significant difference in performance especially at the first point of acceleration. Before I made my purchase I test drove the vehicle twice with the V6 and once with the V8. After I test drove the one with the V8 engine, I said to myself there's no way I will get the V6. With the V8 engine 0 to 60mph is 6.2 seconds. I did not test it out yet by brake torquing the engine and did not test it out yet in Sport Mode doing the 0 to 60. In the coming days, I'll do it with those two actions and mention the times I will get in a future posting. As for the Lexus TX, based on some review videos I've seen for it, Lexus borrowed two styling cues and two physical features from the Jeep Grand Cherokee L. The styling cues borrowed are from the interior in the instrument cluster screen. The fuel gauge and temperature gauge is in horizontal bar graph form. Two features they borrowed from the Jeep are the grab handles found on the wheel wells to assist in getting into the third row and secondary power folding third row seat buttons on the wheel wells. As for the Jeep Grand Wagoneer, I hope you'll do a review video that vehicle. That vehicle is the direct competitor for the Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator. Also a competitor for the Mercedes GLS, BMW X7 and Infiniti QX80, but primarily for the Escalade and Navigator. OBTW, another reason I had to get the Jeep Grand Cherokee L with the V8 engine is because my old third generation Jeep Grand Cherokee which I still have has a V8 engine as well.

I wish L is offered as a 4XE.

It’s a fantastic vehicle. However if I was spending my own money, I would go for a suburban because of relatively simple powertrain that doesn’t break the bank when problems arise.

The Land Rover wasn't always luxury either. It has basically the same off-road capable roots as the Jeep. If it could go luxury, there's no reason Jeep can do the same. I also think the Grand Wagoneer is off to a great start. However, in going luxury it does leave a lot of its loyalist out in the cold unable to afford anything beyond the base trim. Anyway, in my view, this is what the Grand Wagoneer should have been based on. Instead of its current polarizing design, it could simply have been the bigger brother/version of the already familiar Jeep Grand Cherokee.

You own one or is it a friend, always the same story from someone that's never had a jeep

With all due respect Alex, it’s not an alternative. It’s a Jeep. It is garbage with advertising behind it.

No it’s an alternative Your comment is what’s garbage LOL

I test drove a Grand Cherokee to replace my Touareg TDI but for the price I'd be paying, the GC was rated to tow less and didn't drive as nice. This was a 2019 with the V6. I wouldn't even consider one of the new ones with how they ruined the look and how unreliable they're proving to be.

Jeep isn't for everyone your full of shit with the towing, stick with your farfiknugen vw , they lost ww2 LIKE Toyota.

Stop trying to make Jeep a luxury brand just because the price is ridiculous

Come On Alex your reviews are pretty thorough but dirty engine cover, dirty car dirty tires is not a good look so please show a clean car in the reviews going forward!

GO OVER THE TRIM LEVELS! GO BACK TO YOUR OLD REVIEW STANDARDS! The new ones suck.

We're trying different things to see what viewers prefer. Sadly they seem to generally prefer and watch more of the reviews without the detailed trim level comparisons. We haven't given up on it, but we're trying to find a balance.
