2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Grand Cherokee sits above Compass and below Wagoneer for buyers who want Jeep branding with midsize SUV packaging. Trade-offs: mpg vs hybrid crossovers, and 4xe complexity if you will not plug in.

What's confirmed (EPA 2026)

Representative rows from fueleconomy.gov:

• Grand Cherokee 2WD 2.0L: 23 mpg combined (21/27)
• Grand Cherokee 2WD 3.6L: 22 mpg combined (19/26)
• Additional 4WD gas rows cluster around 21–22 mpg combined
• Grand Cherokee 4xe PHEV: 56 MPGe combined on electricity; 23 mpg combined gas-only (per EPA PHEV row)

Practical notes

4xe only wins the efficiency argument if charging is routine. L WB / Grand Cherokee L rows differ — match the exact EPA model string. Towing: cite Jeep trailering guide for MY/config only.
