The 30-Second Answer: What Matters on the 2027 Grand Cherokee?
The 2027 Grand Cherokee pairs serious Jeep capability with an upscale, family-ready cabin. The headline powertrain is a 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo with a next-generation automatic transmission. A 3.6L Pentastar V6 remains standard on Laredo and Laredo X. Both engines can reach the model's maximum 6,200-pound tow rating when properly equipped.
Model-year changes
What's New for the 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
The 2027 story centers on more turbocharged performance, updated cabin tech and a broader mix of capability-focused and premium choices.
The decision that changes everything
Grand Cherokee or Grand Cherokee L?
Start with the number of rows you will use, not the badge or option list. The standard-wheelbase Grand Cherokee seats up to five. Grand Cherokee L adds a third row and seating for up to seven.
Choose the 2-row if...
You want seating for five, a 193.5-inch overall length and 37.7 cubic feet of cargo room behind the second row. Fold that row for up to 70.8 cubic feet.
Choose Grand Cherokee L if...
You need six-passenger seating with second-row bucket seats or up to seven with a second-row bench. Cargo volume is 17.2 cubic feet with all rows up, 46.9 behind the second row and up to 84.6 cubic feet with the second and third rows folded.

Two Engines, One 6,200-Pound Maximum Tow Rating
The best engine choice depends on the trim and driving character you want. Maximum ratings require the correct configuration and towing equipment.
What Can 6,200 Pounds of Towing Cover?
Depending on the trailer, load and equipment, that ceiling can suit many family boats, compact campers, utility trailers and recreational gear. Always match the exact vehicle, hitch, trailer brakes, payload and tongue weight to Jeep's towing guidance.
Engine, drivetrain, wheelbase and equipment can change the rating.
Passengers and gear affect available payload before a trailer is attached.
Use the required hitch, wiring and braking equipment for the trailer.

Your 2027 Grand Cherokee Test-Drive Checklist
Use ordinary family routines—not just a quick loop around the dealership—to decide whether a configuration fits.
- Compare the engines. If available, drive the Pentastar V6 and Hurricane Turbo back to back.
- Test your row count. Sit in every row you expect to use and practice entering the third row.
- Load the cargo area. Bring a stroller, golf bag, cooler or other bulky item you carry often.
- Try the camera views. Check visibility, the available 360° view and the Digital Rearview Mirror.
- Pair your phone. Test calls, maps, audio and wireless charging before the drive ends.
- Verify the tow setup. Ask for the exact rating, payload label and required equipment on that vehicle.
