All-New 2.0 L Hurricane 4 Turbo Engine

The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee is proud to be the one to introduce Stellantis’ new 2.0 L Hurricane 4 Turbo engine to the brand lineup! Our excitement around this engine concerns its powertrain design coupled with motorsport combustion tech that’ll give you more power than similar 4 cylinders, adding in lower fuel efficiency. You’ll receive 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, with 851 km range on a tank of fuel, with towing capacity up to 2,812 kg (6,200 lbs). Enter the new era of Jeep engines in a Hurricane!

Design & Technology Updates

It’s not just the power that’s been updated on the 2026 Grand Cherokee, but the design and technology features as well. Engage with a new 12.3-inch infotainment screen that effortlessly fits within the new design of the cabin. Added features include Active Driving Assist and McIntosh 19-speaker sound system.

As for those looks we hinted at, of course you still get the iconic Grand Cherokee look with its stout frame, but that doesn’t mean things can’t be freshened up. The iconic seven-slot grille has been updated, along with new headlights, exterior trim finishes and a modernized rear and lower fascia.

Honed Trim Lineup

Sometimes simpler really is better, and while it is nice to have double-digit options to choose from to get the perfect vehicle trim for you, here for 2026 the Jeep Grand Cherokee has made things simple, with 3 honed trim options for you to select from. These 3 trims are:

  • Laredo
  • Limited

The Laredo kicks things off with the highlight Hurricane engine, along with a 12.3-inch infotainment screen and a load of safety and security features. The Limited provides some upgrades with Silver Silk interior accents, second row heated seats, 9-speaker Alpine Audio system and more. Enjoy the lavish features of the top-level Summit with Oak & Liquid chrome interior accents, Palermo leather seats, Quadra-Trac II 4x4 system and more.
