2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude

The Grand Cherokee is Jeep's refined midsize SUV, slotting between the rugged Wrangler and the larger Grand Wagoneer. It goes up against the Ford Explorer, Toyota 4Runner, and Hyundai Palisade in the crowded midsize SUV segment. The turbo four delivers smooth, responsive acceleration around town, though it works harder when passing at highway speeds. The cabin stays hushed on the highway, and the ride is composed over broken pavement, a step above most rivals. With generous rear legroom and a sizable cargo area, this SUV handles family duty with ease. The Altitude sits between the Limited and the Summit, adding blacked-out exterior trim and unique 18-inch wheels for a sportier look without the Summit's luxury price. Its 2.0L I4 makes 324 horsepower and works with an automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, delivering smooth power around town and 22 mpg combined. The Altitude comes standard with heated front seats and a heated steering wheel, plus the Uconnect 5 system with a 12.3-inch screen and wireless Apple CarPlay.
