The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee is the right choice for five-passenger families who need genuine towing muscle, practical cargo space, and a broad trim ladder to match any budget. Starting at $39,730 for the rear-wheel-drive Laredo and climbing to $63,130 for the Summit Obsidian 4x4, every configuration delivers up to 6,200 lbs of towing capacity, about 38 cu ft of cargo room, and a standard TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic — with the Hurricane Turbo 4 engine's 324 hp available from the Laredo Altitude upward.

How Much Does the 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Cost to Own in Providence and Surrounding Areas?
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee spans a wide price band — from $39,730 for the base Laredo to $63,130 for the Summit Obsidian 4x4 — so buyers can find an entry point that fits a family budget without sacrificing the core capability that makes a Grand Cherokee worth owning. Every trim adds a $1,995 destination charge on top of the base MSRP shown below.
| Feature | Laredo | Laredo 4x4 | Laredo Altitude | Laredo Altitude 4x4 | Laredo X | Laredo X 4x4 | Limited | Limited 4x4 | Limited Reserve 4x4 | Summit 4x4 | Summit Obsidian 4x4 | Trailhawk 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base MSRP | $39,730 | $41,730 | $44,960 | $46,960 | $42,225 | $44,225 | $45,130 | $47,130 | $52,725 | $61,130 | $63,130 | $53,030 |
All trims share a destination charge of $1,995.
For buyers stepping up from a current vehicle, the spread between trim levels is meaningful. The jump from the Laredo ($39,730) to the Laredo 4x4 ($41,730) is $2,000 for the addition of four-wheel drive — a reasonable premium for families who want confidence on wet roads or gravel. The Laredo Altitude and Laredo Altitude 4x4 ($44,960 and $46,960 respectively) bring the more powerful Hurricane Turbo 4 engine into the picture. The Limited Reserve 4x4 at $52,725 and the Trailhawk 4x4 at $53,030 represent the mid-to-upper tier where luxury and off-road capability converge.
Shoppers who want to offset the cost of a new Grand Cherokee should consider what their current vehicle is worth. You can get an estimate on your trade-in before you visit the showroom, which can meaningfully reduce the net out-of-pocket figure. For buyers who prefer a pre-owned option, browsing our pre-owned vehicle inventory is a practical starting point.
Jeep Style That Turns Heads on Providence's Historic Streets
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee in Dartmouth, MA, carries a silhouette that reads confident without being oversized — a practical consideration for anyone navigating Federal Hill's tight side streets or hunting for parking near WaterFire events on the riverfront. At 193.5 inches long, 77.5 inches wide, and 70.8 inches tall, the Grand Cherokee occupies the same footprint as a mid-size SUV while projecting a presence that suits Jeep's heritage.
The Giorgio platform underpins all trims, and the exterior reflects it: a five-door body with a lifting rear gate, standard LED headlights and LED high beams across the lineup, LED daytime running lights, and painted front and rear bumpers. Black roof rails are standard on every configuration. The Laredo and Laredo X trims carry chrome/bright trim around the side windows, giving them a polished urban look, while the Laredo Altitude and Laredo Altitude 4x4 swap to black trim around the side windows for a more assertive, blacked-out stance. The Summit Obsidian 4x4 takes that philosophy furthest with its darkened appearance package.
Color options available across the lineup include High Gloss Black, Sting-Ray Clear Coat, Red Hot Pearl Coat, and Ghost, among others — giving buyers the palette to match Providence's blend of colonial brick and modern urban architecture or the waterfront character of the region's coastal communities.
If you're considering a trade-in toward a new Grand Cherokee, you can estimate your current vehicle's trade value online before stepping into the showroom.
Power and Handling Built for Suburban Roads and Waterfront Towing
Two engines power the 2027 Grand Cherokee lineup, and which one you get depends entirely on the trim you choose. The Laredo, Laredo 4x4, Laredo X, and Laredo X 4x4 use the naturally aspirated Pentastar 3.6L V6, producing 293 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Every other trim in the lineup — Laredo Altitude, Laredo Altitude 4x4, Limited, Limited 4x4, Limited Reserve 4x4, Summit 4x4, Summit Obsidian 4x4, and Trailhawk 4x4 — steps up to the turbocharged Hurricane Turbo 4 2.0L four-cylinder, which delivers 324 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. All trims share the same TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic transmission.
| Feature | Laredo | Laredo 4x4 | Laredo Altitude | Laredo Altitude 4x4 | Laredo X | Laredo X 4x4 | Limited | Limited 4x4 | Limited Reserve 4x4 | Summit 4x4 | Summit Obsidian 4x4 | Trailhawk 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Engine | 3.6L | 3.6L | 2L | 2L | 3.6L | 3.6L | 2L | 2L | 2L | 2L | 2L | 2L |
| Horsepower | 293 hp | 293 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp | 293 hp | 293 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp | 324 hp |
| Torque | 260 lb-ft | 260 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 260 lb-ft | 260 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft | 332 lb-ft |
| Drivetrain | Rear-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Rear-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Rear-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Rear-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive | Four-wheel drive |
All trims share: Transmission: TorqueFlite®
The torque advantage of the Hurricane Turbo 4 — 332 lb-ft vs. 260 lb-ft for the Pentastar — is most noticeable when towing. Every trim in the lineup is rated at 6,200 lbs of braked trailer capacity, which is enough to pull a 19-to-21-foot center-console fishing boat to Mount Hope Bay or a loaded utility trailer. The Pentastar trims get there with adequate reserve; the Hurricane Turbo 4 trims get there with more confidence and less effort, particularly at highway speeds when merging with a load.
The front and rear suspension is an independent multi-link design with coil springs on both axles, providing a ride character that handles the flat-to-rolling terrain of the region's suburban and coastal roads without the harshness of a truck-based platform. Ground clearance is 8.4 inches unladen, and approach and departure angles are 20.5 degrees and 26.6 degrees respectively — useful for the occasional gravel boat launch or unpaved park access road.
For buyers who want to add towing accessories or Mopar-branded equipment after purchase, our Mopar parts and accessories department can help outfit your Grand Cherokee for the job.
Family-Friendly Space for Weekend Adventures
Five seats and about 38 cu ft of cargo space behind the rear row are consistent across every 2027 Grand Cherokee trim — a meaningful baseline for families loading up for a day trip. Fold the rear bench and that number grows to about 71 cu ft, which is enough room for bikes, camping gear, or a full weekend's worth of luggage.
The interior dimensions tell a practical story: 39.9 inches of front headroom, 39.4 inches in the rear, 41.3 inches of front legroom, and 38.2 inches of rear legroom. Shoulder room is 59.2 inches up front and 58 inches in the back — wide enough that three adults across the rear bench don't feel squeezed. Hip room measures 57.4 inches in front and 56.3 inches behind.
The cargo loading height is 32.4 inches from the ground — low enough to slide in a stroller or a cooler without a significant lift. Cargo hooks are standard equipment across all trims, and the rear bench folds asymmetrically, so you can carry a longer item on one side while still seating a passenger on the other.
| Feature | Laredo | Laredo 4x4 | Laredo Altitude | Laredo Altitude 4x4 | Laredo X | Laredo X 4x4 | Limited | Limited 4x4 | Limited Reserve 4x4 | Summit 4x4 | Summit Obsidian 4x4 | Trailhawk 4x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Curb weight | 4,238 lbs | 4,365 lbs | 4,238 lbs | 4,365 lbs | 4,238 lbs | 4,365 lbs | 4,266 lbs | 4,413 lbs | 4,413 lbs | 4,784 lbs | 4,784 lbs | 4,413 lbs |
| Payload | 1,812 lbs | 1,685 lbs | 1,812 lbs | 1,685 lbs | 1,812 lbs | 1,685 lbs | 1,784 lbs | 1,637 lbs | 1,637 lbs | 1,266 lbs | 1,266 lbs | 1,637 lbs |
All trims share: Seating: 5 · Cargo: about 38 cu ft · Towing: 6,200 lbs
Payload varies noticeably across the lineup — the rear-wheel-drive Laredo and Laredo Altitude carry 1,812 lbs, while the heavier Summit 4x4 and Summit Obsidian 4x4 carry 1,266 lbs. Buyers who regularly haul heavy cargo in addition to passengers should factor payload into their trim decision alongside towing capacity.
Seating surfaces step up as trims climb. The Laredo and Laredo X start with cloth upholstery. The Laredo Altitude and Laredo Altitude 4x4 move to synthetic leather with suede accents. The Limited and Limited 4x4 use synthetic leather throughout, and the Limited Reserve 4x4 offers available Nappa leather seating. The driver's seat on all trims features power height, reach, recline, and tilt adjustment.
Smart Connectivity to Keep You in Touch Across Providence's Cultural Scene
The infotainment setup on the 2027 Grand Cherokee is split cleanly between two tiers based on trim level. The Laredo, Laredo 4x4, Laredo X, and Laredo X 4x4 are equipped with a 10.1-inch touchscreen and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. Starting with the Laredo Altitude and Laredo Altitude 4x4 — and carrying through the Limited, Limited 4x4, Limited Reserve 4x4, Summit 4x4, Summit Obsidian 4x4, and Trailhawk 4x4 — the center touchscreen grows to 12.3 inches, paired with the same 10.25-inch reconfigurable TFT instrument cluster.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are standard across all trims, so there is no cable required to mirror a phone's navigation or music app. Bluetooth is standard, as is Amazon Alexa voice assistant integration. The system supports over-the-air software updates, meaning the vehicle can receive improvements without a dealership visit.
Connectivity infrastructure is built around an embedded SIM card with an OEM data plan. The telematics package — branded as the Safety & Security Package — includes a 120-month subscription, covering remote lock/unlock, remote start, vehicle diagnostics, theft alert, speed alert, geo-fencing, and find-my-car functionality. Remote services are also included for 120 months. Wi-Fi hotspot capability is standard, with an initial 3-month subscription included and longer-term data packages available as options.
USB connectivity is consistent across all trims: two USB charging ports up front and two in the rear, plus a front 12V outlet and a cargo-area 12V outlet. The Laredo Altitude and higher trims add a wireless charging pad, eliminating the need to plug in a phone at all. Navigation is standard on all trims, with a 10.1-inch nav screen on the base trims and a 12.3-inch screen on Laredo Altitude and above, all featuring 3D mapping, voice guidance, internet-fed traffic data, and an initial 3-month traffic and map-update subscription.
Confidence and Protection for Navigating Urban and Coastal Routes
Every 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee — regardless of trim — ships with a comprehensive suite of active safety technology as standard equipment. The foundation is Full Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus, which monitors the road ahead at speeds as low as 3 mph, activates the brake lights, and can apply autonomous emergency braking. This system operates across the full speed range, not just in city-speed situations.
Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection is standard across all trims. The blind-spot monitor watches the adjacent lanes and warns the driver of vehicles in the blind zone; the Cross Path Detection component — also called Cross Path Detection in the rear cross-traffic system — uses radar to identify vehicles approaching from the sides when reversing out of a parking space, which is practically useful in busy parking areas.
Active Lane Management System is standard on every configuration, providing both lane departure warning and active lane-keeping steering input. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go is standard on the Laredo and Laredo X family, branded as Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Stop & Go. The Laredo Altitude and higher trims use the Active Driving Assist System, which combines adaptive cruise with lane centering for a more complete highway driving assist experience.
ParkSense Rear Park Assist w/Stop — combining a rear camera with rear parking sensors and automatic braking — is standard across all trims. The Limited 4x4's available Technology Group II package adds front and side parking sensors along with a Surround-View Camera System for a 360-degree bird's-eye view around the vehicle.
The passive safety structure includes 8 airbags on every trim: dual front airbags, front side airbags, front and rear side curtain airbags, and driver and passenger knee airbags. A trailer stability program and electronic traction and stability control are standard across the lineup.
Breaking Down 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trim Pricing for Local Buyers
Choosing the right Grand Cherokee trim is largely a question of which engine you want and whether four-wheel drive is a priority. The Laredo at $39,730 is the most accessible entry point, pairing the Pentastar 3.6L with rear-wheel drive and a solid standard-feature set that includes LED lighting, wireless smartphone integration, the 10.1-inch touchscreen, adaptive cruise with stop-and-go, and the full active safety suite. Adding four-wheel drive — specifically the Quadra-Trac® I system — costs $2,000 and produces the Laredo 4x4 at $41,730.
The Laredo X ($42,225 rear-wheel drive, $44,225 four-wheel drive) keeps the Pentastar engine but adds a standard power sunroof, a heated steering wheel, a wireless charging pad, and a power liftgate. Buyers who want the more powerful Hurricane Turbo 4 without jumping to the Limited should look at the Laredo Altitude ($44,960) or Laredo Altitude 4x4 ($46,960), which also bring the larger 12.3-inch touchscreen, rain-sensing wipers, and a blacked-out exterior treatment.
The Limited ($45,130) and Limited 4x4 ($47,130) add memory driver seating, a fully power-adjustable passenger seat, ambient interior lighting, LED fog lights, and a 9-speaker audio system. The Limited Reserve 4x4 at $52,725 layers in a premium audio upgrade, standard Nappa leather availability, and additional technology content. The Trailhawk 4x4 at $53,030 is purpose-built for off-road use with terrain selection and enhanced four-wheel drive capability. The Summit 4x4 ($61,130) and Summit Obsidian 4x4 ($63,130) represent the full luxury expression of the platform.

Warranty, Maintenance, and Service Insights for 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Owners
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee carries a standard warranty structure that applies identically across all twelve trims in this lineup.

Roadside assistance is included for 60 months or 60,000 miles as well, providing manufacturer-backed support if a breakdown occurs. Paint coverage runs 36 months or 36,000 miles.

2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Awards, Expert Reviews, and What They Mean for Local Buyers
The Grand Cherokee's fifth-generation platform — which underpins the 2027 model — has drawn consistent recognition from the automotive press since its introduction. The Giorgio platform architecture, shared with premium European vehicles, gives the Grand Cherokee a structural rigidity and ride refinement that reviewers have consistently noted as a step above traditional truck-based SUVs.
The Hurricane Turbo 4 engine, available from the Laredo Altitude upward, has been highlighted by reviewers as a genuine improvement over the outgoing V6 in terms of both output and low-end torque delivery. The 332 lb-ft of torque arriving at 3,000 rpm means the engine pulls strongly from a standing start — something that matters when merging onto a busy highway with a trailer attached or accelerating out of a tight urban intersection.
The standard active safety suite — including Full Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus, Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection, and the Active Lane Management System — represents a meaningful commitment to standard safety equipment at a time when some competitors still charge extra for these features at lower trim levels.
For families weighing the Grand Cherokee against rivals such as the Ford Explorer, Toyota 4Runner, or Chevrolet Traverse, the combination of a broad trim ladder, genuine towing capacity, and a refined interior at the Limited and above represents a strong value proposition in the mid-size SUV segment.
Frequently Asked Questions About the 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee for Families
Q: What is the fuel economy of the 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and does it differ between trims?
Yes, fuel economy varies by engine and drivetrain. Trims with the Pentastar 3.6L — the Laredo, Laredo 4x4, Laredo X, and Laredo X 4x4 — are rated at 19 city / 26 highway / 22 combined mpg in both rear-wheel and four-wheel-drive configurations. Trims with the Hurricane Turbo 4 2.0L and rear-wheel drive (Laredo Altitude, Limited) earn 21 city / 26 highway / 23 combined mpg. Adding four-wheel drive to the Hurricane Turbo 4 trims (Laredo Altitude 4x4, Limited 4x4, Limited Reserve 4x4, and others) brings that to 20 city / 25 highway / 22 combined mpg. The Laredo Altitude rear-wheel-drive has the best combined rating in the lineup at 23 mpg.
Q: Can the 2027 Grand Cherokee tow a boat for use on the water near Fall River or Seekonk?
Every trim in the 2027 Grand Cherokee lineup is rated to tow up to 6,200 lbs with a braked trailer. A typical 18-to-21-foot fiberglass fishing or recreational boat with trailer weighs between 3,500 and 5,500 lbs depending on size and motor, so the Grand Cherokee covers most recreational towing scenarios comfortably. The optional Trailer Tow Package is available across all trims and adds trailer towing preparation for buyers who plan to tow regularly.
Q: Is four-wheel drive necessary, or is rear-wheel drive adequate for daily use?
Rear-wheel drive is a practical choice for buyers whose primary use is commuting and family errands on paved roads. The four-wheel-drive trims add the Quadra-Trac® I system, which engages automatically without driver input — a meaningful advantage on wet or slippery pavement. Buyers who tow regularly, travel unpaved boat launches, or want maximum all-weather confidence should prioritize the 4x4 variants. The cost difference between rear-wheel and four-wheel drive within the same trim is $2,000.
Q: Which trim is the best value for a family buying their first Grand Cherokee?
The Laredo X 4x4 at $44,225 is a strong starting point for families who want four-wheel drive, a sunroof, wireless charging, a heated steering wheel, and the full active safety suite without stepping into the Limited's price range. Buyers who want the more powerful Hurricane Turbo 4 engine should consider the Laredo Altitude 4x4 at $46,960, which adds the 12.3-inch touchscreen and the stronger powertrain. Both trims include the complete standard safety package and wireless smartphone integration.
Q: Where can I see the 2027 Grand Cherokee in person and speak with someone about the right trim?
Colonial South Chrysler Ram Jeep and Dodge is located at 42 State Rd, Dartmouth, MA 02747. To speak with a product specialist before visiting, give the team a call at (508) 984-1900. The showroom carries multiple Grand Cherokee configurations across the trim ladder, and the team can walk through the differences between the Pentastar and Hurricane Turbo 4 powertrains, four-wheel-drive systems, and available packages based on how you plan to use the vehicle.
