Question 1

What is new about the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee compared to the previous generation?

Accepted Answer

The 2022 Grand Cherokee (WL generation) is a complete platform redesign, replacing the WK2 generation that had been in production since 2011. Key changes include: a new high-strength steel frame with aluminum elements, an all-new front independent multi-link suspension (replacing the solid front axle) for improved on-road ride and handling, and a fully redesigned interior featuring stacked dual screens (10.1-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen plus an optional 10.25-inch front-passenger screen). Canadian powertrain options were the 3.6L Pentastar V6 (293 hp), 5.7L Hemi V8 (357 hp), and the 4xe plug-in hybrid. The Uconnect 5 interface integrates Amazon Alexa, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The 2022 Grand Cherokee (two-row) started around $46,000 for the Laredo and reached approximately $78,000 for the Summit Reserve in Canada.

Question 2

Is the Grand Cherokee Overland 2022 worth its price premium over the Laredo in Canada?

Accepted Answer

The Grand Cherokee Overland 2022 was priced around $65,000 in Canada — approximately $19,000 more than the base Laredo. That premium includes: Quadra-Drive II AWD with Vari-Lok rear differential, Windsor leather seats with heating and ventilation, a McIntosh 19-speaker premium audio system, a panoramic sunroof, the Active Damping System adjustable suspension, Full Speed Forward LED headlamps, and a head-up display. Benchmarked against the competition, the Overland faces the BMW X5 xDrive40i (around $83,000) and Mercedes GLE 450 (around $90,000) with a compelling equipment-to-price advantage. For a buyer who appreciates the rugged American SUV aesthetic alongside a premium, tech-forward interior, the Overland represents the best value-to-content ratio in the 2022 Grand Cherokee lineup.

Question 3

Does the 2022 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk live up to Jeep's off-road reputation?

Accepted Answer

The 2022 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is Trail Rated and specifically configured for off-road use: Quadra-Drive II AWD with electronic Vari-Lok rear differential, Terrain Select modes (Auto, Snow, Sport, Sand/Mud, Rock), lifted suspension (+25 mm), steel skid plates protecting the fuel tank and transmission, and improved approach (19.9 degrees) and departure (22.6 degrees) angles. Ground clearance is 251 mm, above the segment average. Hill Descent Control and full Lock mode are standard. In Canadian winter conditions, on snowy trails, forest service roads, or provincial park gravel, the Trailhawk delivers real, proven off-road competence. It is worth noting that the WL's new front independent suspension handles on-road driving much better than the old solid axle, while still performing capably in the off-road scenarios that most Canadian drivers actually encounter — ski resort access roads, cottage country gravel, and remote backcountry tracks.
