2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee: What's New, Trims, Specs & Features
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee adds three new trims, Trailhawk, Overland, and Upland, plus best-in-class 11.4-inch ground clearance. Laredo and Laredo X now get a 10.1-inch screen standard, up from the previous 8.4-inch display. This page covers every change, trim, and spec, with in-stock 2027 Grand Cherokee inventory at Champion CDJR of Gulfport.
What's New for 2027
The biggest structural change for 2027 is a dramatically expanded trim lineup. Jeep adds the Trailhawk, Overland, and Laredo Upland to the Grand Cherokee roster, each targeting a distinct capability level.
Trailhawk returns as the most off-road-focused Grand Cherokee, now powered by the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo producing 324 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. It adds Quadra-Trac II with a two-speed transfer case, Quadra-Lift air suspension with semi-active damping, a rear electronic limited-slip differential, six steel skid plates, and 30.5-inch Goodyear Territory All-Terrain tires. Ground clearance reaches a best-in-class 11.4 inches in Off Road Position 2, with a 36-degree approach angle and 30.3-degree departure angle.
Overland returns after a multi-year absence, slotting in as the premium off-road trim. It brings Quadra-Trac II with a two-speed transfer case, the class-exclusive Quadra-Lift air suspension, Hill-descent Control, semi-active damping, 21-inch machine-faced wheels, Nappa leather with heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a standard 360-degree surround view camera with washer.
Laredo Upland is all-new, giving buyers Trailhawk-inspired capability at an accessible price point. It adds 18-inch Trailhawk-inspired wheels, 265/60R18 all-terrain tires, a Trailhawk-inspired front fascia with Vapor Gray tow hooks, a body-color painted roof, dark neutral gray exterior accents, and Capri leatherette and suede seats in Global Black.
Across the Laredo family, the standard infotainment screen steps up from 8.4 inches to a 10.1-inch display. Laredo and Laredo X also get new 18-inch wheel designs. The Limited gains a new 20-inch wheel design, a wireless charging pad, and rain-sensing wipers. Limited Reserve adds auto power-folding mirrors.
New colors for 2027 include High Gloss Black, Sting Gray, Ghost, Red Hot, Olive Green, Midnight Sky, Ember, and Red Rock (several with late availability). Wicker Beige joins as a new interior color option for the Laredo trim.
Official 2027 Grand Cherokee press release
Trim Lineup
The 2027 Grand Cherokee spans ten trims from the Laredo base through the Summit at the top. Each trim is listed separately below.
Laredo (4x2 and 4x4)
The Laredo is the entry point into the Grand Cherokee lineup. It carries the 3.6L Pentastar V6 and now includes a 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen as standard equipment, up from the previous 8.4-inch unit. New 18-inch wheel designs also arrive for 2027. Buyers who want the Grand Cherokee nameplate with a focus on daily utility will find the Laredo covers that ground without off-road-specific hardware.
Laredo X (4x2 and 4x4)
The Laredo X shares the 3.6L Pentastar V6 and receives the same two 2027 upgrades as the Laredo: the 10.1-inch infotainment screen as standard and a new 18-inch wheel design. It adds a modest styling step over the base Laredo with exterior accent treatments.
Laredo Altitude (4x2 and 4x4)
The Laredo Altitude steps up to the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo as standard. For 2027 it receives the new 18-inch wheel design with darkened styling cues that give it a blacked-out appearance stance. It sits between the Laredo X and the new Laredo Upland in the trim order.
Laredo Upland (new for 2027)
The Laredo Upland is an all-new trim for 2027, positioned to give buyers Trailhawk-inspired off-road looks and real capability hardware at a value price. Standard content includes 18-inch Trailhawk-inspired wheels, 265/60R18 all-terrain tires, a Trailhawk-style front fascia with Vapor Gray tow hooks, a body-color painted roof, dark neutral gray exterior accents, and Capri leatherette and suede seating finished in Global Black. Buyers who want genuine all-terrain tires and aggressive styling without paying for the full Trailhawk package will find the Upland is the direct answer.
Limited (4x2 and 4x4)
The Limited moves up to the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo and adds a meaningful set of 2027 updates: a new 20-inch wheel design, a wireless charging pad, and rain-sensing wipers. Interior refinement takes a step up over the Laredo family with upgraded materials and additional standard comfort features.
Limited Altitude (4x2 and 4x4)
The Limited Altitude builds on the Limited with a blacked-out styling package. It carries the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo, the new 20-inch wheels from the Limited, and adds darkened exterior badging and trim elements for buyers who want the Limited's content with a more aggressive visual stance.
Limited Reserve (4x4)
The Limited Reserve builds directly on the Limited and adds auto, power-folding mirrors as standard. It is available in 4x4 configuration only and targets buyers who want the highest level of Limited content before stepping to the off-road-focused or full-premium trims above.
Trailhawk (4x4, late availability)
The Trailhawk is the Trail Rated off-road leader in the two-row Grand Cherokee lineup. It is powered by the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo (324 hp, 332 lb-ft of torque) and adds Quadra-Trac II with a two-speed transfer case using a 2.72 low-range ratio, Quadra-Lift air suspension, a rear electronic limited-slip differential, six steel skid plates, 30.5-inch Goodyear Territory All-Terrain tires, and an integrated TrailCam off-road camera with dynamic tire path overlay. Ground clearance in Off Road Position 2 is 11.4 inches, which Jeep claims as best-in-class. Production is at the Stellantis Detroit Assembly Complex and units arrive at dealerships in late 2026. Buyers at Champion CDJR of Gulfport can order now.
Overland (4x4, late availability)
The Overland returns to the Grand Cherokee lineup for 2027 as the premium off-road trim. It carries the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo, Quadra-Trac II with a two-speed transfer case, and the class-exclusive Quadra-Lift air suspension with semi-active damping. Standard premium content includes 21-inch machine-faced wheels, Nappa leather seating with "Overland" embossing on the front seat backs, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a 360-degree surround view camera with washer, and a unique An-Teak Satin Chrome interior accent. Like the Trailhawk, it carries late-availability status and can be ordered now at Champion CDJR for late 2026 delivery.
Summit (4x4)
The Summit holds its position at the top of the two-row Grand Cherokee lineup. It is powered by the 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo and adds 20-inch wheels, the available McIntosh 19-speaker audio system, Quadra-Lift air suspension, and the highest level of interior finish in the two-row range. The Tupelo/Black interior combination is exclusive to the Summit. Buyers who want the most refined Grand Cherokee experience in a two-row configuration will find the Summit is the correct trim.

Performance & Powertrain
Two engines are available across the 2027 Grand Cherokee lineup.
The 3.6L Pentastar V6 is standard on the Laredo and Laredo X, producing 293 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. It is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and is available in both RWD and 4WD configurations. EPA fuel economy is 19 city / 26 highway / 22 combined (2WD).
The 2.0L Hurricane 4 Turbo is standard on the Laredo Altitude and all higher trims, including the Trailhawk and Overland. It produces 324 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque, with peak torque available from 3,000 to 4,500 rpm. Jeep notes this engine achieves 162 hp per liter through Turbulent Jet Ignition technology. Paired with its 8-speed automatic, it returns 19 city / 26 highway / 23 combined on most configurations. EPA fuel economy data
Maximum towing capacity is 6,200 lbs across both engines when properly equipped, which Jeep claims as best-in-class. Payload is 1,280 lbs on the Laredo 2WD.
The Trailhawk's 4x4 system uses the MP3028C two-speed transfer case with a 2.72 low-range ratio, a rear electronic limited-slip differential, and a 3.70:1 axle ratio, calibrated specifically for demanding terrain.
Interior, Comfort & Cargo
The 2027 Grand Cherokee seats five across two rows. Front headroom measures 39.9 inches and legroom reaches 41.3 inches. Rear passengers have 39.4 inches of headroom and 38.2 inches of legroom.
Cargo behind the second row is 37.7 cu ft. With the second row folded, maximum cargo space reaches 70.8 cu ft, enough to handle serious gear for trips from Gulfport down the Gulf Coast or further inland.
Interior materials vary meaningfully by trim. The Laredo Upland brings Capri leatherette and suede in Global Black. The Overland wraps passengers in Nappa leather with "Overland" embossing on the front seat backs, standard heated and ventilated front seats, and standard heated rear seats. The Overland also adds a unique An-Teak Satin Chrome interior accent. The Trailhawk uses Nappa leather in Global Black with red accent stitching.
The new Wicker Beige interior color joins as an option on the Laredo trim for 2027.
Technology & Infotainment
Screen size is the headline tech story for 2027. The Laredo and Laredo X step up to a 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen as standard, replacing the previous 8.4-inch unit. Upper trims are available with the 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 NAV touchscreen with integrated navigation.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility are standard across the lineup. Bluetooth connectivity and AM/FM radio round out the base tech package.
The Selec-Terrain Traction Management System provides five modes: Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow, and Mud/Sand. Off-Road Pages display vehicle dynamics, pitch and roll angle, Selec-Terrain status, and suspension position in real time on the infotainment screen.
Trailhawk adds an integrated TrailCam off-road camera with dynamic tire path overlay and rear camera washer.
The Summit offers the available McIntosh 19-speaker audio system for buyers who want a dedicated premium audio experience.
Safety & Driver Assistance
The 2027 Grand Cherokee includes child door locks as standard. Active Driving Assist is available, supporting hands-on semi-autonomous driving capability on compatible roads.
The Overland and upper trims add a 360-degree surround view camera with washer as standard equipment, useful for navigating tight trail approaches or urban parking. The Trailhawk's integrated TrailCam provides a dedicated forward-facing off-road camera view.
Four-wheel antilock brakes, electronic stability control, all-speed traction control, and brake assist are standard across the lineup.
Jeep covers the 2027 Grand Cherokee with a 3-year / 36,000-mile basic warranty and a 5-year / 60,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Who It's For / vs. the Prior Year
The 2026 Grand Cherokee was a capable mid-cycle SUV. The 2027 model makes a sharper argument for buyers on both ends of the spectrum.
Buyers who want everyday usability at an accessible entry point now get a bigger screen standard on the Laredo and Laredo X, which is a meaningful upgrade without paying for a higher trim. The new Upland gives off-road appearance buyers the visual hardware and actual all-terrain tires without the full Trailhawk price.
Buyers who prioritize serious off-road performance now have the Trailhawk back in the lineup with a more powerful engine than prior iterations, a true two-speed transfer case, and electronically controlled air suspension.
Buyers who want refinement with legitimate trail ability have the Overland, a combination that was absent from the prior model year.
If you are deciding between a 2026 and 2027, the expanded trim structure and the standard screen upgrade on entry trims make the 2027 the stronger choice for most buyers in Gulfport and across the Gulf South.
