Summary


The Jeep Grand Cherokee is a large five-seat plug-in hybrid SUV and its American manufacturer’s flagship model which became available to order in the UK towards the end of 2023.

With reviewer responses ranging between enthusiastic praise and indifference, the new Grand Cherokee has split opinion within the UK motoring media. While Car Key‘s Ishan Sonavane argues the Jeep is a “formidable” challenger in the large SUV category, and Liam Shard of The Sunday Times says the car has a “more welcoming cabin than that of the Range Rover“, other outlets have their doubts.

“It’s more expensive than a Porsche Cayenne e-Hybrid – and that car is not only more premium inside and vastly better to drive, it’s also more efficient and cheaper to run”, says Carbuyer‘s Richard Ingram. What Car?‘s Will Nightingale adds that the Jeep “costs too much to make up for numerous shortcomings”, including a “disappointing” powertrain and infotainment system.

Autocar‘s Vicky Parrott concludes that the SUV is a “rather lovable” purchase with attractive “style elements of old-school Americana”, but adds that the lack of a seven-seat variant also limits the SUV’s appeal. Overall, the Grand Cherokee is a certain improvement over its predecessor that was retired in 2020, but struggles to compete in a very competitive luxury SUV crowd.

As of May 2024, the Jeep Grand Cherokee holds a New Car Expert Rating of B with a score of 70%. Despite several poor UK reviews, the SUV’s score is greatly increased by an excellent five-star Euro NCAP safety score.
