Jeep has unveiled the 2026 Grand Cherokee, bringing significant power, technology, and design updates to America’s most awarded SUV.
The centerpiece of the refresh is the all-new 2.0-liter Hurricane 4 Turbo engine, offering 324 horsepower, 332 lb-ft of torque, and a class-leading 6,200-pound towing capacity. Jeep estimates a 506-mile driving range on a single tank of fuel, making it both efficient and capable for long-distance adventures.
The Hurricane 4 Turbo marks the first high-volume application of Turbulent Jet Ignition technology, which ignites a small fuel charge in a pre-chamber to deliver faster, cleaner combustion without sacrificing power. A variable geometry turbocharger ensures 90% of peak torque is available between 2,600 and 5,600 rpm, delivering strong low-end performance for launches, cruising, and acceleration. The engine will be assembled at Stellantis’ Dundee, Michigan, Engine Plant, reinforcing Jeep’s U.S. manufacturing presence.
Alongside the powertrain, the 2026 Grand Cherokee receives a freshened design. Exterior updates include a revised seven-slot grille, new headlights, modified rear fascia, and three new paint colors:
- Steel Blue,
- Copper Shino,
- Fathom Blue.
Inside, Jeep introduces a 12.3-inch infotainment display, with optional 10.25-inch passenger screens and a 19-speaker McIntosh audio system. Advanced safety features, including Active Driving Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and Intersection Collision Assist, are standard on higher trims.
