DETROIT – Fiat Chrysler is adding a new three-row model to its popular Jeep Grand Cherokee range, which the company believes will make the vehicle more attractive in an increasingly competitive SUV market.
The Grand Cherokee L is the fifth generation of the SUV since its debut almost 30 years ago. A three-row jeep has been in the making for more than a decade. Jeep left the segment in 2010 after poor sales of a vehicle called the Commander.
“A three-row Grand Cherokee is in great demand. We know we will do very well,” said Christian Meunier, Jeep’s global president, during a press conference. “We will greatly improve our leadership.”
The 2021 Grand Cherokee L is recognizable as a Jeep, but has a new exterior design with horizontal LED daytime running lights, a wider seven-slot grille and other design elements that were featured on the company’s Grand Wagoneer SUV concept last year. It is based on a new Fiat Chrysler vehicle architecture that will also support a redesigned two-row Grand Cherokee and a new plug-in hybrid version.

Fiat Chrysler said the three-row vehicle will go on sale in the second quarter, followed by the two-row and plug-in models later this year. The company declined to release prices for the L model, but it will likely be above the current Grand Cherokee at $ 34,000 and below the upcoming Wagoneer, a larger three-row SUV that’s expected to start at around $ 60,000 this year Trade will come.
Meunier said there will be “significant differentiation” between the three-row Grand Cherokee model and the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer models, an upcoming luxury Jeep that will exceed $ 100,000.
Jeep is expected to expand its range from six to nine vehicles by the end of next year, including the Grand Cherokee L and Wagoneer vehicles.
The Grand Cherokee L comes standard with a 3.6 liter V6 engine developing 290 horsepower and 257 lb.-ft. of the torque. A 5.7 liter V8 engine developing 357 horsepower and 390 foot pounds of torque will also be available. The company said the new Grand Cherokee will offer hands-free driving technology for model year 2022 vehicles in late 2021.

The interior of the Grand Cherokee L features 8.4 “or 10.1” touchscreen displays and a frameless digital driver information screen of 10.25 “behind the steering wheel. It will offer more than 110 security features, including 360-degree surround view and night vision cameras, according to the company. It will be available in six and seven seat configurations.
The next-generation Grand Cherokee models will be built at a new assembly plant that the company is completing in Detroit. Fiat Chrysler invested $ 1.6 billion to build a 790,000-square-foot paint shop and convert the two original Mack Avenue engine plants into the new assembly plant.
