Snapshot
- 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee pricing and features
- Five-seat Grand Cherokee arrives in Australia; new Overland variant
- Priced from $77,950 before on-road costs
The new variant headlines an update to the fifth-generation ‘WL’ Grand Cherokee range, which launched in Australia one year ago in seven-seat, long-wheelbase ‘L’ form.
While the 3.6-litre naturally-aspirated V6 continues for most variants, Jeep will offer a 2.0-litre four-cylinder ‘4xe’ plug-in hybrid for the range-topping, five-seat Summit Reserve later this year.
UPDATE, August 22: Blacked-out styling package now available for Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited variants
Jeep Australia has announced a new ‘Black Appearance Group’ styling package for five- and seven-seat Grand Cherokee Limited variants. This story, first published in February, has been updated to include the option package.

The five-seat Grand Cherokee is priced from $77,950 before on-road costs – up $17,500 over the previous-generation model – with four grades available: Night Eagle, Limited, Overland and Summit Reserve.
This is in line with the Grand Cherokee L, which gains the mid-spec Overland trim for model-year 2023 and minor price rises.
Other additions include a larger 10.1-inch infotainment system for the entry-level Night Eagle and a 360-degree camera system for the Limited.
While Jeep Australia has homologated the off-road-focused Trailhawk five-seat variant, it remains under consideration – but a Trailhawk-lite ‘Off-Road Group’ option pack is available for the Grand Cherokee Overland.

The engine is matched with an eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission, sending power to all four wheels.
Jeep will not offer the fifth-generation Grand Cherokee with petrol V8 or turbo-diesel power; however, a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain will be available on the two-row Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve due later this year.
It comprises a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine matched to an electric motor, with a total system output of 280kW and 344Nm.
Braked towing capacity for the 3.6-litre V6 is rated at 2813 kilograms – including the Summit Reserve – while the five-seat PHEV is listed at 2722kg.

Safety
The five-seat petrol V6 WL Jeep Grand Cherokee is covered by a four-star ANCAP safety rating, while the seven-seat V6 and five-seat PHEV have a full five-star score.
Both results were achieved under the now-superseded 2020-22 testing standard. For the full run-down, click here.
Eight airbags (dual front, side, curtain, and driver and front passenger knee) are fitted across the range.

Dimensions
The five-seat Grand Cherokee has a 2964-millimetre wheelbase, and is 4914mm long, 2149mm wide and 1799-1801mm tall.
By comparison, the previous generation rode on a shorter 2915mm wheelbase, measuring 4821mm long overall and 1938mm wide.
Stepping up to the seven-seat Grand Cherokee L sees measurements rise to 5204mm in length and 1815-1817mm tall, with a 3091mm wheelbase.

Warranty and servicing
As per the wider Jeep range, the Grand Cherokee is covered by the brand’s five-year/100,000-kilometre warranty.
Jeep offers a complimentary roadside assistance program across the entire warranty period. It will provide an additional 12 months when the vehicle is serviced at a Jeep dealership, across its entire lifetime.
Maintenance for the Jeep Grand Cherokee is required every 12 months or 12,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first.
Lifetime capped-price servicing is offered, with prices for the 3.6-litre Grand Cherokee listed at $399 per service.
Jeep has yet to detail maintenance information for the plug-in hybrid variant.

The updated 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee is on sale now, including the five-seat version.
The plug-in hybrid variant will launch in Australia later this year.
