Glad that these still offer a V8, but i feel like theyre no longer gonna make a performance version of the Grand Cherokee. 15 years ago we had the SRT8 that competed with the Chevy Trailblazer SS and went on in the early 2010s. Then 4 years ago, we had the Trackhawk version of that with over the insanity of 700 HP that pretty much competed with every other performance SUVs like the X5M Competition, the GLE AMG 65s, the Levante Trofeo, the Cayenne Turbo, etc. Unfortunately they have not teased the performance version of the Grand Cherokee and i dont think theyre will be another one like that anymore because of some boring reasons. emissions regulations....

Traded in my 2021 Dodge Durango RT, Tow n Go for a 2024 Zynith Silver, fully-loaded GC L, Overland with the 5.7 HEMI. Black roof, panoramic sun roof, massaging seats, air-suspension, etc. I absolutely love it!

I think this is the best model in the non-Wrangler/Gladiator lineup.

Regarding 3rd-row leg room, the 2nd row slides forward to provide more for adults. You can get (3) 5' 10" adults comfortably seated in-front-of/behind each other by adjusting the 1st and 2nd row seat positions.

I had the 2019 summit 5.7… got the 2022 Summit Reserve… 5.7… beautiful car !

The 3rd seat is better than any vehicle smaller than the body on frame SUV’s like wagoner and Tahoe. None of the German, Japanese, or SK vehicles could compete.

I've got a '21 GCL Summit Reserve with the 5.7L. (Ordered 7/15/21, delivered 12/02/21) Sounds great at idle; but a bit raspy when you get into it, as your video demonstrates. Really hope they add a 392 option in the next few years, but not just as a sport model. I still want all the luxuries of the Summit Reserve, just with more power and a better soundtrack:)

Almost 4K alone for that 5.7 engine?? They’re almost penalizing the buyers if they go that route but it is nice if you can swing it.

[houstonbrown]

Do you know what the cargo room is with the third row down? Compared to the 2 row Jeep Grand Cherokee?

[beaud]

Wonder why they derated the 5.7 its capable of alot more

Came for the engine/driving/performance, left with a 3 second stab of the throttle and “it’s got a hemi”….

[Tallnerdyguy]

My '14 limited ecodiesel is 1/4 the price with 25+ mpg, while not as loud, much more powerful

[Tony-hfmv]

Is it geared any better than the last gen. I had a trail hawk with a 5.7 and honestly my v6 palisade is faster
