- For decades, the #Jeep brand has always stood for a simple purpose of delivering some of the most off-road capable SUV's on the market. However, in recent years the brand has looked to move up-market to compete with high-end luxury players and the recently redesigned #GrandCherokee really takes things up to the next level. Even buyers looking for something electrified will find plenty to like with the #GrandCherokee4xe with up to 25 miles of EV only range and up to 475 lb-ft of torque from its plug-in hybrid powertrain. The latest #JeepGrandCherokee can go toe-to-toe with the best luxury SUV's from any brand.

Happy Friday everyone! With specs that rivals other PHEV luxury SUV's like the BMW X5 PHEV, do you feel Jeep has what it takes to compete with some of the best European luxury SUV's?
Yes, and if they did the 4x4 right it will sell to ‘city’ jeep enthusiasts.
Yes it absolutely does. Because this is one of the best luxury PHEVs on sale
The interior is out of this world. So is the tech. Even if it’s expensive it’s worth it
Jokes like “you want to spend 70K on a Chrysler product” is a thing of the past because this vehicle is worth it
No, way too jerky when gas engine kicks in
@@naveenthemachine it’s worth 25k less bud
I like mine with rebates and affiliate it was 11k off sticker. Try getting anything at a discount. It has great tech and one of the the nicest interior of any car in it's class. The one thing that I hate is the 4 banger its not very pleasant to listen to. But at least it's a turbo.
Thanks for the Review! Always a pleasure watching you. ..
I feel like this new jeep would be worth it if they took like 8 or 10k off the prices. They have made the interior nicer and the exterior looks great. The 4xe starting at 60k is absurd. The price is too high and the jumps between trims is too big for not as much differentiation. Especially with that old 2.0L. I wanted to replace my 14 Overland, but it's like a 20k+ premium to get the same trim and the EV range is eh.
totally agree. the fact that this car (in Summit Reserve config) is going to be in the upper 80's with the overland trim is ridiculous. Just saw that a new loaded sequoia is 99k. suv's have become completely unaffordable. used to be you could get a lot of car for 55-60k. now its 80-100k which most people can't (and should buy) afford.
Leave those cars on the lot. It’s utterly ridiculous that these SUVs are this expensive. Also these are cars that don’t have the reputation of being long lasting. 🤦🏾♂️
@@JayZJay7 Trust me, they have vehicles for every buyer. They have very nice equipped Jeeps that aren’t this price.
@Devin Young, you and I are saying the same thing, definitely $8 or $10k off the price tag for this trim to make it worthwhile. The prices are too close to Range Rover Sport price point, and personally I'd go Range Rover. I foresee Stellanis offering a lot of discounts and rebates to move these Jeep GCs that are Overland trim and up, I think the Overland 4xe should be $60k max!
@Jamaul Joseph, Exactly! Let the dealership keep them things, I had 2 Jeep GCs, one was a complete lemon and had a complete failure @ under 7k miles, the second one was great, I liked it a lot, however like you said, not a great reputation for this price point.
the problem with the current administration is that they made the 7500 tax credit basically exclusive for Jeeps and Teslas. RV also remain stupidly high.
Other companies prices will drop but Jeeps will not.
Such awesome and top notched detailed car reviews!…it excite and entertain me so much no dull moments ….❤❤❤
Congratulations 🎊 you have been selected as a winner
Kindly send a direct message above 👆🏽account to acknowledge your price. Thanks
I love the way full screen navigation looks in the dashboard. Problem is no one uses GPS anymore except through CarPlay. Need someone to incorporate that there now
Amazing 🤩
so pretty inside and out. My 15 overland is nearly paid off and 70k isn't a number I'm willing to bend too. The price is crazy to me.
Thanks for telling us that the real world MPG is = or < than the pentastar v6 because This is a little out of my price range, might end up with the v6 and feeling like I'm going to be missing out on better highway range on long trips.
I would buy a Grand Cherokee over any of the competition. It looks so good without shouting about it.
I took a ride in this thing and it definitely moves quick…you can definitely feel the torque
It's about time! I would buy this Jeep. All vehicles should be Hybrid. It's the logical powertrain if you have an ICE.
I would like to see your impressions about Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Thanks.
Do you know if the gas is 87 octane or higher? Manual says 87 is fine but 91 recommended for peak performance. I get more like your second run using 87 octane.
On last review you mentioned the hood start fluttering when the car goes faster than 80mph. Is this one still doing the same thing?
The missing button on the dash is for the disconnecting sway bar.
What a beauty!. Little worried about the interior trim???
I need this on the L version. I have the V6 only get 15-18mpg avg.
Very Nice Bro! Get Good People!
Empty button is the sport mode button on some of the models like my limited. I have the V-6 engine.
How long does the electric battery take to recharge using the brake rejuvenation?
I watched a wagoner for 60k with no screens or digital nonsense. Just old school, pure, rugged luxury.
Buy it
is the sound system any good?
It's not based on on the alfa Romeo Giorgio platform. They considered that platform but determined it wouldn't work for the GC. They do have some common suspension components though.
True. It is actually on a dedicated platform. It uses a handful of components from the Giorgio. But that platform did not allow Jeep to have the offroad prowess that thr GC is known for nor allow the packaging for the 4Xe.
Nope. Its on the Giorgio platform.

Why doesn't the wrangler or grand cherokee have a 1500 w inverter plug like the prime? Weird?
Do the rear seats fold flat? With the Wrangler 4xe, they do not.
My dream American SUV!! Nice video bro.
More like nightmare
Great, detailed review of 4xe. Thanks.
PS all review "hate" piano black -- why do most makers still use it? assuming customers dislike it too.
It's cheap to make a single glossy plastic they can put in everything. Most likely cost saving for jeep
They can wrap it in another texture if that’s preferred. Kinda like buying a house you really like but you hate the colors of the bedrooms… paints solves it all and is a simple fix.
Hello, ! 👋🎊Thanks for watching::You have been shortlisted for the ongoing secret giveaway🎁🎁 contact address above on telegram, ❤️💯🏆, Thank you!
As someone who has owned this for 7 months, the biggest issue with this SUV is that inline 4. An absolute mismatch with the truck and sounds awful. And the battery loses about 10 miles of EV range during the winter.
What are the prices for this premium Jeep? Not like I could afford them but I Can Dream can I let me know
The ten-seconds-front-to-back-while-talking-intro-slow-motion-steps🤣😂
I looked into these and there are gov't incentives that should also be considered. I've been given a quote for 675 / month after gov't incentives and up front lease cost.....which would be much less than buying one. just an option to consider.
I wish they would've put the 4xE on the V6 instead of the 2.0 4 cylinder
It has a traditional Automatic but it doesn’t have a torque converter. It uses clutch instead.
I just bought the 4XE summit reserve, and would so much rather have the V8 engine. It was sitting on the show room floor.
Empty button is for active park assist
Why didn't they put the now legendary 3.6 in it with the 4xe, just like the Pacifica?
Emissions I guess. Most manufacturers are using smaller engines with turbos.
Is it known what kind of an inverter module these come with?
Radio shack
This is another impressive vehicle from Stellantis North America Division.
Agreed. All the pathetic fca jokes are year one
This powertrain needs to be in a Ram 1500. Just a slightly bigger battery
Could go with the brands with cachet, but you'l never see those actual being taken off a paved highway. If you can get some value out of this with shorter trips and mix in offload adventures, seems like a good value, especially because they are already discounted.
We had a Wrangler 4Xe and loved it.
Had? What happened to it ?🤷♂
@@TheKingOfInappropriateComments probably in the shop for major repairs
@@mr.foxwiz1653 probably full of crap
@@phatgringo2.0 HA HA HA. Nope.
@@mr.foxwiz1653 Benefit of the doubt, maybe it was recently stolen and he's still fighting with insurance.
These lease for less than $20k for 3 yrs/30k miles. Likely will be a contender for our next vehicle.
I watch all your reviews but this one I had to skip to the end because I was scared of the price
How come most reviews on this vehicle never touch on the passenger side screen?
In review, unless I missed it, no mention of interior width, nor of seat features of front passenger (think 4xe is identical on both front seats). Pls save a narriage and in future spend 60 seconds on all seat features. Thanks
They're apparently not selling well and are giving some attractive incentives and lease options. I'm going to consider if I can get these at a $500 a month payment
Only if it did closer to 40-45 miles on electric only. Most all others are in that range by now.
It's pretty much in the middle of the pack for PHEV SUV range
17,5 kW will give you 50mls in city or at steady 55-60 mph.
What kind of acceleration numbers would this vehicle get if the Plug-In system had run out of power, and it was ONLY running on the 2.0L Inline 4 cylinder engine?
The 4cyl has 270hp so I'm guessing rather slow for how much it weighs
That's not how PHEVs work. The hybrid system is always available so the power is always available. When it "runs out" it just can't do pure EV driving.
@@harvsorrow not true. Watch Doug demuro’s video on this vehicle. The acceleration is dismal without full use of e motor
The e-motor is always available unless you're flooring it constantly. The battery is never fully depleted (unless crazy driving).
It's how PHEVs work. I also own one so know by experience.
@@1bluensxI have a Trailhawk 4XE and can also confirm it always has full horsepower and torque on an empty EV battery. In fact, draining the battery and losing access to electric-only mode essentially puts it in sport mode (engine plus electric motors at all times) which is faster than the standard hybrid mode. Hybrid mode has a second of lag time if you hammer it from a stop while it decides to kick on the engine for the boost, obviously sport mode doesn't since it's always on. Same with a dead ev battery.
When you drive you can watch the green (electric) and blue (gas) bars on the dash. They rise and fall to show you what's being used. Dead ev battery still has just as much green power as a fully charged battery. The ev charge is only used to keep the engine off.
That "parking sensor" is actually an infrared camera.
Soooo, this is a hybrid that gets 23 ish mpg……same as v6 ? The electric part gives you 26 miles until it’s charged again, correct ? Doesn’t make sense to me. Am I wrong? You get 50 mpg e one time, until it’s charged again…….otherwise you are getting 23 mpg ?
No, you’re not wrong. I would just get the V6 instead and not have to worry about the battery component (assuming you plan to own the vehicle for 8+ years). As a 2021 Rav4 Prime owner, 42+ miles of EV range & 40+ in hybrid mode with a combined 94 MPGe looks excellent compared to this Jeep model.
I lease my summit 4xe I get close to 28mpg on the highway on just gas. The v6 get crap city milage and is slow. With the tax credit it's not much more expensive to get the 4xe.
For some perspective, I just bought one. I charge it at home overnight. The computer shows the total range at a bit over 300 miles after driving it 2.5 hours with no battery charge from the dealer. It takes about 12 hours to charge on 120v, but then uses little to no gas in hybrid mode. The estimated range hasn't gone down because the battery is charged. The 23 mpg only comes into play if the battery is drained. Drive it with a charged battery for less than 25 miles and the gas engine comes on for a few seconds while accelerating.
@@kjburns75 sorry for your loss
@@paulira7407 you bought the right vehicle 👍
It'd be hard to decide, the jeep is very nice when fully loaded and would get the Federal Tax credit, however, for the price, I'd consider buying the BMW X5 50e. The Beemer has a bullet proof inline 6 with more EV range and comes standard with air suspension. I'm wary of a Turbo 4cyl in such a large heavy SUV, the turbo is working extra hard when it's ICE is running. The BMW, has a larger engine, so, the ICE won't put as much strain on the turbos....And from renting the Grand Cherokee 4Xe, the transition from EV to hybrid mode is abrupt and has some hesitation unlike with the BMW X5 45e, which I've rented as well, the transition is seamless and almost unnoticeable, and with the 50e, the charging time has improved tremendously.
The missing button in the summit is for park assist.
It's for the sway bar disconnect.
10:48 LMAO bro nawwww I literally spit out my drink watchin him do this on a brand new vehicle 😭 once a Mercedes, always a Mercedes 😂💀
I literally said nooooo when I saw that lol definitely not a good look for this price. Like the styling inside and out though.
That was reaaaaallyyy bad
The empty place is for the disconnect swaybar!
70k Jeep, what a deal
😂😂😂
I would buy one if I could afford it. Because it’s worth it and it really shows
Trackhawks and SRT's have costed that much and more for years.
2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee WL Overland 4XE!
8:17 SavageGeese rated the McIntosh audio system as the worst this year for being way too bass heavy.
Typical Mc. Home gear too
Turn the bass down
I was thinking the same thing having seen their video.
Ummm 11:02 correction.. it IS leather wrapped in summit reserve trims and you’ve shown us this. So “it being a grand Cherokee” has nothing to do with that. You’re just in a as you would say a “plebeian” trim. 🤷🏽♀️
Crazy how that's true when my old 2009 Grand Cherokee Overland was the top trim level (not including the SRT-8) and had genuine woodgrain in the interior but now is the plebian trim level lol.
@@Stressless2023 exactly !! The overland has had real wood since in 2011-21 as well so I’m questioning if he’s right about this being fake wood. Very well could be because if there being a higher trim available but even in older models they had real wood in both the overland and summit so I’d have to do some digging.
an excellent vehicle but the only thing I don't like is that it is a plug hybrid now if it were a hybrid system it would be much better because the plug hybrid is a double expense
"The 2 row model doesn't offer a 3rd row". Thanks.
I wouldn’t pay more than 60k for that model
I took one for a test drive and it was so chintzy for the price. The doors felt like they were made of paper.
Eco friendly maybe 😆
REALLY? Never heard that from grand Cherokee. It’s always been a solid car I didn’t even find that with the new one. And I’m very very very picky on my door feel specifically. I’ll have to recheck.
I thought the same including the wagoneer when I was at the autoshow
Brand is soooo shitzy
I own a summit and this isn’t true. The vehicle is truly luxury
Mazda cx70 is coming soon I will wait for the Mazda cx70.
Size wise this would be more comparable to the cx90
Keep lots of money available when the warranty expires. It will cost you big
not everybody wants to drive a euro luxury brand. some people want to be a little bit more low key. i love BMWs but i don't want people to think i'm an asshole for example so i'm currently driving a Volvo instead. to me the fact this SUV doesn't have a BMW, Porsche or Range Rover badging is a plus not a minus.
It's got a tiny 4 cyl in it and electric motors helping it and it still gets a regular V6 mpgs .... 🤦
I would buy one today if they GOT RID OF THE HIGH GLOSS BLACK PLASTIC on the center stack!
Wrap it in a different color or texture Forrest
2.5 hours charge just for 26 miles??
It’s a plug in not a full ev so fast charging isn’t really needed tbh
Use a faster charger
First.
Love this SUV but lets be real, this plug-in hybrid thing is a gimmick. They vehicle gets 23 mpg....whats the point?
True. Maybe the only advantage is hp and torque. Because let’s be real, no SUV with those numbers could have 23 mpg
The point is they get brownie points from the government😂💯do you realize that Stellantis sells a lot of gas guzzlers?
Dude nailed it! Let's be honest, the thing gets 23 mpg let's not fool ourselves here. $75,000 for 23 mpg, you're better off buying some boogie Rang Rover at that price.
that mcintosh logo on the dash is so bad...completely destroys the "upscaleness" of this car.
@Redline Reviews the L is in the 4xe too isn't it?
No. Only the 2 row for now (22/23)
I'm sorry, but to me Jeep can never be a luxury brand, they need to stick to being a vehicle for the masses, instead of trying to be Range Rover.
You’re just a hater. Jeep is stepping up significantly lately. Their cars are beautiful and their interiors are often out of this world. Jeep even trying to compete w bmw shows jeeps not messing around. Even Hyundai Kia are going significantly upmarket to compete w the Germans and they really show
@@naveenthemachine I'm not a hater, Jeep does make wonderful vehicles, but just like I how I say with regards to Hyundai and Kia, they are still Hyundai and Kia...
@@naveenthemachine imagine Suzuki charging $90k for their SUVs because they made a whole load of improvements...doesn't work that way
Everybody trying to go up market or either trying to sell you a loaded model that cost too much it's less and less options for the regular buyer you're going to have to go smaller less equipped or go used because the prices of new cars high as giraffe pussy 🤣🤣
@@naveenthemachine this jeep is a gimmick. Let's be real here, this thing gets 23 mpg and it's marketed at $75,000. It's nice but at this price, you're better off flossing a Rang Rover.
I like the 4xe, but the price is inflated. I’d only save $300 per month going from my current car & trading down to one of these; not worth it. Maybe used in a couple years.
6:34 I serisouly don't understand why Jeep has chosen this jey fob design, the previous gen key fob introduced in 2014 is way better looking....
The price for Electric can’t be justified. It would take years to get that money back in savings of Gas, and who knows how long that engine will last since it’s their first attempt at making an Hybrid
Electricity is cheaper than gas… not sure what you are saying.
@@MattCC16Gaming lmao it not hard to understand dude , you pay a premium for electrified cars , and the savings you get vs a regular gas car , you aren't probably ever going to break even
@@VaunShiz the average cost of gas for a car can be a few grand a year. Assuming you aren’t getting a crazy expensive performance car, you can definitely break even and save.
That leather is already wearing. Geez
And leather is not supposed to wear since lots of journalists are driving it
😂😂😂😂
I'd swap out those crappy Goodyear all terrain tires for Yokohama all terrain tires. A vehicle in that price range should never come with Goodyear's from the factory in my opinion.

@@XX-166 base Tacoma, a base 4Runner or a Kia telluride
@@naveenthemachine no comparison and the telluride has the GDI engine.. garbage.
I genuinely do not understand the benefits of a plug in hybrid over a normal hybrid or just a more fuel efficient engine. This cars max range (470miles) divided by its fuel capacity (19 gallons) is literally under 25mpg, nothing about that is impressive when the ecodiesel it used to have got up to 30mpg and over 700miles in range and even the 3.6V6 gets up to 26mpg and a range of almost 600miles (23 gallon tank) plus that's considerably cheaper, uses regular gas where the phev uses premium. I don't see any benefit to this especially for the price.
It's all about the ability to plug in each night. If so, it's possible to go weeks if not months without using gas. But your point stands if plugging in regularly is a challenge.

Not True! You cannot buy a BMW X5 plug-in at the same price as this Grand Cherokee. The real price of the BMW is not the same.
I have the GC 4xe. I laughed at my buddy with his x5 stuck in the snow yesterday. Pathetic off road performance in that vehicle..BMW is Great for mall cruising tho.
I went with an x5 540i over this. It was close.
Might be worth the money if the ugly $5 piano black console was replaced with woodgrain.
Forcing the engine to do a cold start every time you turn it on would be a big negative for me. Totally unnecessary wear and tear.
The wheels are not great. They look like daisies. Should be tougher looking wheels.
I'm glad Jeep has finally gone away from the old Mercedes chassis. It's about time..
Jeep can put it in the pipe and smoke it for $75k. Their first gen of hybrid. Seems like nothing but trouble.

The lowest priced Grand Cherokee 4xe with 20" wheels comes in at around $65,000, which is not cheap but substantially less than this model. To qualify for the $7500 federal rebate the retail price of an SUV needs to be less than $80,000.

I have the 3.6 Penstar version of the Overland, and no way in hell that 2.0L engine will be enough for this SUV, be careful I'd stay clear of this thing. You're not feeling the electric motor by power barking it, you're just giving the turbo time to spool up the charge for enough boost. This power plant is an abortion
This is so disappointing from all levels. These are throw away cars and the 4 cylinder engine is not an engine I would choose. I rather get the Hemi V8 and these new vehicles are only making the older models that much more collectable. Plus the old mercedes platform was the best!
Nothing does cheap quite like Jeep.
If you think this is cheap look at the summit reserve trim. The summit trim is significantly better
@@naveenthemachine I'm sure the trim specs out nicely, it's just that Jeep has long been known to cut corners on the interior and ride quality (even on non-offroad focused suvs). Consider how expensive RAM has become, and then factor in making the vehicle more capable. Jeep knows they can't compete in the luxury class so they pick tooth and nail to keep the majority of their offerings at a price more people can afford.
@@jmd11185 if you look at the summit trims of the grand Cherokee you’ll be blown away. There are Asian luxury brands who can’t afford to come anywhere near this
