What's new for the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
For the 2022 model year, the Grand Cherokee enters its fifth generation with a complete redesign. With a more premium feel with added capability features, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee is better than ever! The new generation has a full exterior remodel. The iconic seven-slot grille is wider than previous model years and tilted forward, while the narrow LED headlights give a narrow stare. The elongated hood and tapered roofline extend the aggressive look of the front fascia. With better aerodynamics, the tapered roof supports the performance and modern, sporty look. Over its thirty-year history, the Grand Cherokee has offered extraordinary all-terrain capability. In the 2022 model year, it provides an optimized wheelbase for better maneuverability and agility across a variety of terrains. Stepping inside the all-new Grand Cherokee, you'll immediately get a first-class feeling with standard premium cloth upholstery and impressive standard features. Behind the leather-wrapped steering wheel, you'll find a 10.25-inch fully digital driver information display with five configurable tiles. The realigned center stack features a newly standard 8.4-inch infotainment touchscreen with Uconnect 5, Jeep's fastest, most advanced infotainment software yet. Uconnect 5 features cordless Apple/Android smartphone connectivity, Amazon Alexa with home-to-car functionality, five driver profile memory, and much more. Slim HVAC vents extend the modern design. Interior LED lighting is also standard now with customizable colors and day/night time settings. You'll find Nappa leather upholstery, a 10.1-inch touchscreen, and much more on the mid-level trims.
