The 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee is available in six trim levels that include Laredo, Limited, Trailhawk, Overland, Summit, and SRT. The Grand Cherokee SRT is the high-performance version of the standard Grand Cherokee so we have covered it in a separate review, so don't forget to check it out. The 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee starts at $30,395 for the Laredo trim level, $37,995 for the Limited trim level, $43,095 for the Trailhawk trim level, $44,795 for the Overland trim level, and $50,495 for the topmost Summit trim level. All the trims are powered by a V6 gas engine while from the Limited trim and above you also get the option to choose between the available turbodiesel V6 and a gas-powered V8 engine.
Except for the Trailhwak trim that comes with a 4WD configuration as standard, all the other trim levels are RWD as standard while the 4WD is available for an extra cost. Right from the base trim the Grand Cherokee comes with a lot of desirable features and has added the rear parking sensor and a rearview camera as standard this year. Although the advanced driver-assist features are clustered on the Summit trim making you pay over fifty grand if you want to have access to features like forward collision mitigation with automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, and a few more.

We Recommend
For a buyer looking to go for the Grand Cherokee, we suggest putting your money on the Trailhawk trim that comes at $43,095. For approximately a ten grand premium over the base trim, you get Trailhawk specific exterior trims, an adaptive air suspension setup, more off-road-oriented equipment, an underbody skid plate, a bigger touchscreen and a better audio setup, etc. These nifty features not only improve the off-road prowess of your Grand Cherokee but the exterior enhancements make your steed stand out from the mundane Grand Cherokee.
