The New Jeep Grand Cherokee: Three Rows, a Plug Out Back, and an All-American Soul Up Front

More engines than singers have come out of Detroit, and now Jeep is gearing up to give the world yet another reason to buy something that weighs more than your garage and can cross a ravine so wide it makes a Range Rover yawn politely.

The new Grand Cherokee — the next generation of America’s best-selling full-size SUV — has reached its final testing phase. And Jeep is finally peeling back the camouflage, brushing off the dust, and pausing the PR poetry to reveal something big, tall, and unapologetically confident.

With over 30 years of Jeep pride, awards, and driveway domination behind it, the 2026 Grand Cherokee opens a new chapter. It arrives as a two-row, a family-hauling three-row L, and the 4xe plug-in hybrid — one of the best-selling PHEVs in America. Because what could be more patriotic than whisper-quiet city driving and thunderous trail-conquering power… in the same machine?

This is the sort of SUV with enough room to take the kids to school, the dog into the wild, the boat to the lake, and your mother-in-law back… wherever she came from. Jeep says it’s “ready for every stage of life” — which roughly translates to: once you buy it, it becomes part of your existence like a fridge, or marriage.

The full reveal is coming later this year. Until then, testing continues — because in Jeep’s world, you don’t just build capability… you punish it until it earns the badge.
