Pros:
  • Strong and fuel-efficient engine lineup, including diesel V6
  • Upscale interior
  • Irrefutable off-road ability
  • Plenty of luxury and technology-oriented features
  • Outlandish SRT model.
Cons:
  • Typically more expensive than competitors

  • GC Summit, Lot of fun to drive, great looks - 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    The GC Summit is really nice. Fun to drive, comfortable. It needs some additional technology like lane departure and front cameras. Maybe auto parking, thats not a huge issue. Overall I really enjoy this car!

  • Jeep Grand Cherokee a 4 Star Car in a 5 Star World - 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I bought my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4x4 on July 1, 2015. Took it off the lot with 25 miles on it, next day down to the ranch for some 4x4ing, performed great (even with the stock Michelin tires). Next week I was towing my 3500lb boat and a car load of friends. Again, the Jeep performed. I also work in a higher profile office, one where we wine and dine our clients. Again the Jeep performed well, numerous comments from clients. The only faults I have had are related to the transmission. After about 1500 miles it began to clunk and shift erratically. I took it to the dealer and they performed a TCM update and it has since fixed the problem. Granted I have only owned the Jeep for less than a month, however I figured this should have been installed from the factory, not a few weeks after. If youre new to Jeeping, check out JeepForum.com, more specifically the Easter Egg section. Found alot of useful information there. MPG has been so so, around 14 in the city and 25 on the highway. Only regret is not getting one with more options, as I can see this is going to be a vehicle I will want to hold on to.

    This is my very first American car. I have been smitten with this iteration of the GC since it came out and bit the bullet earlier this month on a brand new 2015 Overland 4x2 V6. I initially was going in for the V8 but felt the V6 had enough power since I was not planning to tow anything. Overall I love the vehicle. The technology package is really awesome and I dont know how I lived without Adaptive Cruise control before. The auto start is a jewel to have as the cabin cools down in hot Texas by the time I get inside. Everyone who gets inside is impressed with the stitching, the pano roof, and the comfort. Two things to watch for. Just the other night I hit the button to open the power tailgate and it tried to open but didnt. I hit the button again and it opened with no problem so Ill be watching that. The other thing is the center console is ultra flimsy. I just know it will break a few times before I get rid of the vehicle. When you open it, it is very weak and wobbly so that needs to be addressed. Other thank that Im in love and hope to have many miles of happy driving.

  • LOVE the Jeep .. love MY price .. a LITTLE nervous - 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Please take my review as a super-initial one, as I just purchased my Jeep yesterday as a surprise for my wife. Im always on Edmunds reading up on cars so i wanted to write one after reading other reviews on the GC. First, at first glance, this SUV is absolutely awesome. I got a silver Limited with the Luxury II package, black interior for less than 40k (last one on the lot, theyre trying to get rid of them before the 16s, I was already pre-approved, etc). The stance and LED run lamps really set this vehicle off. Not a huge fan of the plastic molding along the bottom (wouldnt look as bad if I had a black one) or the single exhaust pipe but theyre not dealbreakers obviously. Love the brake lights as well. The interior is pretty plush. Few " cheap bits" here and there but not really noticeable if youre not a car person or have owned higher end cars. This is my first time owning a vehicle with ventilated seats or paddle shifters so Im anxious to try those out. The panoramic roof is an option I never really considered before but it definitely wowed my wife when she realized it was there. It was fun going through all the display configurations both directly in front and on the 8.4" screen. We wont be getting used to EVERYTHING it can do for a good while I think. One thing that absolutely cracked me up was no CD player. I guess from having Bluetooth, an SD card slot, integrated music apps, aux ports, etc, they figure no one really wants CD players. But we do! Both me and my wife laughed about it after looking in every logical place for it. Reminds me of when we started seeing less and less cars with cassette decks. I saw someone mention not having a liftgate button on their key fob, but mine does so Im not sure if thats just an option/package thing. Glad the liftgate also goes back up if theres an obstruction (read: kids). The Uconnect seems to be a GREAT investment if you can get it. That would be a long paragraph in itself so definitely research it. All in all, just great looking, great feeling car. Could have got a Limited without the Luxury package or even a Laredo and probably been satisfied. The additional options just take it over the top and this is a vehicle we plan to have for a long while so why not. I can only imagine how the Overland and Summit folks feel about theirs. I just personally feel like, at the price I got it for, this vehicle cannot be beat. Im VERY nervous about the reliability and transmission issues Ive heard about (when we parked it for the night, it had 19 miles on the dash). I hope to report back that Im one of the lucky ones with no issues. I heard the same thing about Dodge Chargers in 2011, but I bought one new and didnt have anything major go wrong. Just a few little gremlins the dealership took care of no sweat. If I can say the same or better about this vehicle then its absolutely a hit.

  • 3.0 Ecodiesel Review 1 - 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    First Jeep/Chrysler. First 4x4. First diesel. Bought new. Build date: 04/18/2015. Odometer: 381mi Previous SUV: 2007 Escalade. Was hesitant to pull the trigger. Reading bad reviews for 2014 model (electronics/Uconnect/tranny, etc.). So far so good. Diesel/tranny responds quick. Diesel lag is normal. Picks up quick on the highway to overtake or merge. So far averaging 26.5mpg 55-60% highway. Expect it to go up. Uconnect and drivers display is large, informative and sleek. Quick response to user input. Air suspension drops for easy passenger entry/exit. Overall cabin is spacious. Nice leather trim. Convenient/luxury features. Cant wait for 2nd review.
