With an overall Carivo score of 7.5/10, the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee earns a Recommended rating among the suvs we've scored.

Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. We rate the Jeep Grand Cherokee's reliability at 8.6/10 — among the strongest in our suv database, reflecting the nameplate's track record and recall history. Safety is a strength too — 8.6/10 by our scoring. As with any car, verify the official ratings for your specific trim at nhtsa.gov/ratings.
Performance at 6.5/10 is a genuine liability and a score that should factor heavily into any buying decision. The powertrain and chassis dynamics trail class rivals by a meaningful margin — don't overlook it. Technology comes in at 7.1/10 — functional and modern, with wireless connectivity and core ADAS features, though some competitors pack more standard tech at this price point.
Priced from $41,250–$55,516, 23 MPG, seating 5, the Jeep Grand Cherokee sits in the mid-market bracket of the suv segment. The 8.2/10 value score is the headline: relative to what it costs, this suv delivers more than most of the class. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.
Bottom line: Think of the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee as the dependable pick rather than the exciting one. Its softer scores in performance are the only real asterisks. Shoppers who value predictability over headlines will be well served.
