I just got a 2022 Grand Cherokee L Limited and honestly, I personally like it's options better than the overland that was sitting next to it at the dealer that was like 8k more. I have the 360° camera system, the black appearance package with the 20" black wheels, black exterior and interior, in MY opinion the better looking fog and daytime running lights, all of which the overland didn't have. It also didn't have the towing prep package which gives you a full size spare, auto leveling headlights and rear suspension, as well as the better trans cooler that mine has. The only thing it really had that mine doesn't is the air suspension, which I absolutely didn't want, it's WAY too expensive to repair or replace if it gets messed up, the auto leveling rear suspension in mine is less than a 3rd of the cost to replace. It does have the better AWD system. The "advance trac II" system I think it's called. Mine just has the "advance trac I." It also did have the massaging seats, as well as the ventilated second row. Mine is just the heated captains chairs in the back. But ventilated in the front. It even only had the same V6 that mine has... Idk. I LOVE mine and didn't really like the overland.

I got an overland L. Great vehicle, but manufacturer took out the air suspension without telling the dealer “due to a chip shortage “ and only discounted 750 bucks for it. Hitch is also missing…
It’s a way to get more money. The grand wagoneer is even more money and more luxury and they wouldn’t be able to charge $90,000 for a grand Cherokee, so they made a 3 row with many lux features. I think it’s a good idea as with the price of the GW, it’s in Escalade territory and this is a nice luxury off-road option that can fit 6 or 7.
I was on a business trip and National gave me the 4xe version of this. Very sweet ride, comfy, smooth riding. Way out of my budget but still a nice ride.
Except this has an all-new platform, completely different interior, significantly better materials, much better technology, an exclusively available McIntosh audio system, more space/room, is more fuel efficient...
@@gasolinediesel972 It may as well be all-new for the rather significant changes they had to make to it. Anyhow, the point still stands that the underlying platform and technology shares very little resemblance to the Durango beyond the engines and excellent ZF 8-speed transmission.
I think the price point may be a challenge for this vehicle. For families looking for a 3 row vehicle they can get into a Pilot or Highlander or Traverse for less money. I do like this as an alternative though to the Tahoe/ Expedition. I am more excited to see the 2 Row Grand Cherokee and where it prices when it comes out next year. Love the styling of this Grand Cherokee L though. They did a good job.
A very nicely equipped limited with a V6 will run in the high 40s and compete more directly with the Pilot and highlander. The more expensive ones like this will compete more as a budget luxury option.

Glorified Dodge Durango. I’m happy with just the 2 row and a Pentastar, which can tow 6200 lbs and cost about $20K less 3 years ago. Comfy cars but not budget, for sure.
This is the maxed out stupid price. This one can be had for 43K nicely equipped for normal folks. They’re just talking about the balls-deep loaded HEMI version.
I have a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland V8 and I love it! I’m waiting for my Hookers Headers. I already have the cold air intake. By the way, it’s a V8 Hemi. Fun!
Something is telling me that used luxury germans are going to get you a lot more car for the money than this thing. A Hemi- equipped option 0-60 in 6.5 seconds is too damn slow for a v8-equipped vehicle. There is no reason to spend all that money and get poor mpg but still be that slow.
$67k is NOT budget, Jeez! I don't like the outside styling personally, I think they should have lifted it a couple inches. Another thing that annoys me on new vehicles too is that they don't include a backup wheel in the trunk. On a positive note, I really like the interior look except for the glossy plastics, the rotary shifter and no knobs/buttons for the a/c and the stereo. Glossy plastics tend to scratch easily, I guess I'm very disappointed in it overall.
Wife has been driving a 2015 GC that we bought new and its been good. Minus the infotainment taking a shit on us twice now. Expecting our 4th kid so its time to upgrade. Looking hard at the GCL limited. Seems like for the price you get alot of comforts that command a lot higher price on other makes
Piano black must be a 10th of cost of other materials. It’s just not premium. Accents are fine but using it on the entire center stack is a dealbreaker. My fleet Explorer is the same and it’s constant maintenance from fingerprints. Rant concluded…
Overland is NOT the “top of the line”. There are actually two trim levels above it, the Summit and the top of the line Summit Reserve. That’s somewhat inexcusable for a online review to not know that.
Great video however the overland model is not the top of the line model. The top og the line is the Summit and Summit Reserve. Which also adds Nappa leather for the summit and Palermo leather for the summit reserve. at around 68k with the hemi. At this price point you might as well wait for the Jeep Wagoneer which starts at 59 and with some options around 67 you will have a much better vehicle. But this iGrand Cherokee l is a direct competitor to the traverse, telluride, palisade. But for the money the palisade and telluride offer more options and features for 48k.
I thought the grand Cherokee and the grand wagoner were the same length (respectively the standard and the L version). Why did Roman reviewing the grand Cherokee L said that if we wanted more trunk space we would have to go with the wagoner? Thank you
My 2007 Jeep G/C Overland Hemi has a tow rating of 7200 lbs. So, 15 years later and still the same tow rating. I guess I am underwhelmed. I don’t know why, the most I’ve ever towed with mine is maybe1500lbs. They have improved economy a little. Mine is rated 14/19 is gets 10-12 mixed and 15-16 hwy max. Hopefully, they have improved the real world vs EPA rating. This is the only vehicle I have ever owned that could never reach it’s highway estimate and I’ve probably had 60-80 cars, trucks and suvs in my 43 years of driving. Even though it is a gas HOG, I just love this old beast . It’s the only vehicle I have kept 5 years or longer. It’s always been a second car so I don’t have to deal with horrendous mpg unless I feel like it. Oh and those mpg numbers are “driving slow enough to drive Miss Daisy”. Drive aggressively subtract 2-3 mpg. Drive it like you stole it subtract 3-4 more. Can only imagine how much gas an SRT or Trackhawk must use. Can u say Platinum gas card…
Everyone’s budget is still in the mid-$30k that’s a normal price for a car/truck/SUV. The prices lately have absolutely exploded bc “the market” discovered there’s actually a ton of incredibly stupid people that will take on >5yr loans to afford the new shiny thing, and since those loans are easier and easier to get, and stupid consumers just keep doing it, OEMs have no incentive to bring the prices back down into sanity-land. People have become so OK with overpaying for less it’s ridiculous. You look at some $70k trucks/SUVs and they’re equipped like $30-40k cars. Not to mention they’re all using tech that’s been around for *literally* decades, but contrary to tech advancements making tech cheaper, the cars just get more and more expensive
Great video They need more colors across the line up. Like 5 colors they can do better than that. Prime example ice blue and more. Also can you swipe your foot under it like the Cherokee unless you have to play with the settings for that. Also what's the hold button .
The hold button lets you set a lower maximum height the power tailgate will rise, which is hugely helpful for preventing it from potentially whacking residential garage doors which at the garage opening are often 7 feet or less above the floor.
If they didn't start at 10k over most over 3 row suvs I'd be sold. But to even get leather you're pushing high 40s..... most others in the segment can get you with leather right around 38 to 40k. But this Design is killer and it's easily one of the best looking new 3 rows!
Well, it delpends on engine choices (can’t get this many engine choices or power in other 3 rows), and it is able to go more off road and has more towing capability than say a Ford Explorer ST or a Highlander etc.
@@watchreport Towing capacity and off road ability are really the only advantages. The jeep only offers 3.6 and 5.7 and several of the competitors also offer multiple engines. The Explorer has a 2.3, a Hybrid and 2 versions of the 3.0 ecoboost with the ST version having more power and torque than the jeep. Ford is launching a Timberline edition of the explorer for more offroading capability obviously not as much as the Jeep, but let's be honest who actually uses the offroading capability. I hope when my warranties run out on my Durango that these Jeeps will have some rebates because I love the look of them
It doesn’t look like a $67,000 JGC. The interior is really nice though. Maybe the competition has stepped up their game but it doesn’t look as luxurious as the older fully loaded GC did. Fully loaded Ford Explorers look more luxurious but the interior isn’t as nice.
I had high hopes....even if French ( not an American vehicle despite the flag ) maybe the GC could come back better. Friend of mine got one and the transmission committed suicide on the way home for the dealership. It's been there a few weeks now at the dealership. I know i've had to drive him around in my JT while they keep pushing back when he can get a new transmission.

Great job on your video. Planning on getting the 2 row. Love the area where it was filmed. Would like to know to know City and State?
so does the exhaust just disappear on the Laredo and limited trims or what haha. such a shame.
In addition to the family cam, parents also need a spanking machine when they catch the kids misbehaving! So they don't have to stop the car! 😆😆😆
Or a zapper. Nice little jolt of electricity ⚡️
That's what the third row head rest remote fold does. 😂
This being a “family” suv can you put a car seat in the car? The current grand Cherokee lacks a ton in space when a car seat is in the car.
One of the best racks in offroad
I have a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland V8 and I love it! I’m waiting
for my Hookers Headers. I already have the cold air intake. By the way, it’s a V8 Hemi. Fun!
Something is telling me that used luxury germans are going to get you a lot more car for the money than this thing. A Hemi- equipped option 0-60 in 6.5 seconds is too damn slow for a v8-equipped vehicle. There is no reason to spend all that money and get poor mpg but still be that slow.
Why does this remind me of and updated Jeep Commander. With the more boxed look and flatten front!
It is just a pricier Durango but with the added off-road capability
Interior shits on Durango 😂
Not even the same platform
I like that this one is boxy. The last gen looked like a bubble
$67k is NOT budget, Jeez! I don't like the outside styling personally, I think they should have lifted it a couple inches. Another thing that annoys me on new vehicles too is that they don't include a backup wheel in the trunk. On a positive note, I really like the interior look except for the glossy plastics, the rotary shifter and no knobs/buttons for the a/c and the stereo. Glossy plastics tend to scratch easily, I guess I'm very disappointed in it overall.
Looks cheap. Where’s the plush?
Wife has been driving a 2015 GC that we bought new and its been good. Minus the infotainment taking a shit on us twice now. Expecting our 4th kid so its time to upgrade. Looking hard at the GCL limited. Seems like for the price you get alot of comforts that command a lot higher price on other makes
Why wouldn’t the top engine be a twin turbo V6? Or have hybrid assist? Misses the mark.
Piano black must be a 10th of cost of other materials. It’s just not premium. Accents are fine but using it on the entire center stack is a dealbreaker. My fleet Explorer is the same and it’s constant maintenance from fingerprints. Rant concluded…
Are they going to offer the Diesel engine in this?
Overland is NOT the “top of the line”. There are actually two trim levels above it, the Summit and the top of the line Summit Reserve. That’s somewhat inexcusable for a online review to not know that.
It is near the top...I think that is what he was getting at...
Hope the limited trims don't have that piano black shiny plastic touch points. Showing finger prints and scratches galore
At 7:29 did the console move when the camera man leaned in?
The disrespect for money now a days Smfh 67k for a JEEPPPPPPPPP
What happened? This would’ve been so cool! Can you tell us why they stopped production and didn’t come out with this?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t that a unibody? If it is, you can’t really put it in the same class as a G-wagen
Avaliable with Diesel engine? 3.0 crtdi?
Great video however the overland model is not the top of the line model. The top og the line is the Summit and Summit Reserve. Which also adds Nappa leather for the summit and Palermo leather for the summit reserve. at around 68k with the hemi. At this price point you might as well wait for the Jeep Wagoneer which starts at 59 and with some options around 67 you will have a much better vehicle. But this iGrand Cherokee l is a direct competitor to the traverse, telluride, palisade. But for the money the palisade and telluride offer more options and features for 48k.
Actually, the wagoneer starts at 68k i believe, no 4x4 that starts at 71k with 4x4
I wish you would go back to asking the navigation system where you asked for particular places to see how fast it works.
I'm honestly more interested in the 2 row one
I thought the grand Cherokee and the grand wagoner were the same length (respectively the standard and the L version). Why did Roman reviewing the grand Cherokee L said that if we wanted more trunk space we would have to go with the wagoner? Thank you
The wagoneer is 214 long vs 205 on this GC L.
My 2007 Jeep G/C Overland Hemi has a tow rating of 7200 lbs. So, 15 years later and still the same tow rating. I guess I am underwhelmed. I don’t know why, the most I’ve ever towed with mine is maybe1500lbs. They have improved economy a little. Mine is rated 14/19 is gets 10-12 mixed and 15-16 hwy max. Hopefully, they have improved the real world vs EPA rating. This is the only vehicle I have ever owned that could never reach it’s highway estimate and I’ve probably had 60-80 cars, trucks and suvs in my 43 years of driving. Even though it is a gas HOG, I just love this old beast . It’s the only vehicle I have kept 5 years or longer. It’s always been a second car so I don’t have to deal with horrendous mpg unless I feel like it. Oh and those mpg numbers are “driving slow enough to drive Miss Daisy”. Drive aggressively subtract 2-3 mpg. Drive it like you stole it subtract 3-4 more. Can only imagine how much gas an SRT or Trackhawk must use.
Can u say Platinum gas card…
Bring back the Jeep Commander
Wouldn't that be great? Still driving my 08 XK.
@@luchaDor I would be driving my 06 but something is wrong with the transmission 😢
It’s a nice suv that’s not boring but I don’t really like the rotary style gear selector but that’s something you probably get used to 😊
how is sound isolation? Acoustic glass?
Can this Jeep be flat towed behind an RV?
If you do not need the off-road prowess you can get a Chevrolet traverse for about half the money all the size
Great looking car. Unfortunately my budget is in the mid-$30k. I’ll just have to wait 3-4 years and pick up a used one.
Everyone’s budget is still in the mid-$30k that’s a normal price for a car/truck/SUV. The prices lately have absolutely exploded bc “the market” discovered there’s actually a ton of incredibly stupid people that will take on >5yr loans to afford the new shiny thing, and since those loans are easier and easier to get, and stupid consumers just keep doing it, OEMs have no incentive to bring the prices back down into sanity-land. People have become so OK with overpaying for less it’s ridiculous. You look at some $70k trucks/SUVs and they’re equipped like $30-40k cars. Not to mention they’re all using tech that’s been around for *literally* decades, but contrary to tech advancements making tech cheaper, the cars just get more and more expensive
so get a 4runner lol
L for luxury 3rd row is a popular thing. yeah roman it's American company bought a Italian company. nice 7 seater.
Is this thing going to be a better value when its 2-3 years old vs luxury germans like Bmw x7, Audi q7, and Merc GLS?
Can’t wait for Grand Cherokee L vs Defender off road! Keep up the great work!
Why can’t we get videos on the Limited? I’m thinking most ppl are going to buy Base up to the Limited
Is this the same chassis as the Durango ? Did they reinforce anything if so?
It’s an all new platform.
@@jaylanwilliams70 oh ok so maybe the Durango will go this chassis soon
It's the alfa romeo platform. Been around for a while. A lot better than the durango platform though.
Great video
They need more colors across the line up. Like 5 colors they can do better than that. Prime example ice blue and more. Also can you swipe your foot under it like the Cherokee unless you have to play with the settings for that. Also what's the hold button .
The hold button lets you set a lower maximum height the power tailgate will rise, which is hugely helpful for preventing it from potentially whacking residential garage doors which at the garage opening are often 7 feet or less above the floor.
Shinny black and white would be a NO
This is not the top of the line model. There is still the Summit and Summit Reserve above the Overland.
Why do a $67 Luxery suv not have projector led head lamps even on the higher trims those headlamps look cheap for the price!
Better if you deactivate the wide angle camera feature
Wow a Jeep Grand Cherokee $67k!!!!! Holy shit, car prices are over the atmosphere, not the roof!!
All the “american” easter eggs but the engine is made in Mexico
Ford Expedition Chevy Tahoe rivals ?
If they didn't start at 10k over most over 3 row suvs I'd be sold. But to even get leather you're pushing high 40s..... most others in the segment can get you with leather right around 38 to 40k. But this Design is killer and it's easily one of the best looking new 3 rows!
Well, it delpends on engine choices (can’t get this many engine choices or power in other 3 rows), and it is able to go more off road and has more towing capability than say a Ford Explorer ST or a Highlander etc.
@@watchreport Towing capacity and off road ability are really the only advantages. The jeep only offers 3.6 and 5.7 and several of the competitors also offer multiple engines. The Explorer has a 2.3, a Hybrid and 2 versions of the 3.0 ecoboost with the ST version having more power and torque than the jeep. Ford is launching a Timberline edition of the explorer for more offroading capability obviously not as much as the Jeep, but let's be honest who actually uses the offroading capability. I hope when my warranties run out on my Durango that these Jeeps will have some rebates because I love the look of them
What's the Doug Score?
How is a three row SUV related to a G-wagon?
It doesn’t look like a $67,000 JGC. The interior is really nice though. Maybe the competition has stepped up their game but it doesn’t look as luxurious as the older fully loaded GC did. Fully loaded Ford Explorers look more luxurious but the interior isn’t as nice.
I had high hopes....even if French ( not an American vehicle despite the flag ) maybe the GC could come back better. Friend of mine got one and the transmission committed suicide on the way home for the dealership. It's been there a few weeks now at the dealership. I know i've had to drive him around in my JT while they keep pushing back when he can get a new transmission.
