2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L

Are you shopping for a midsize SUV that balances luxury, technology, and capability? Jeep has two standout options in the 2025 lineup—the Grand Cherokee and the Grand Cherokee L. Both offer high-end features, legendary off-road potential, and a bold, upscale look. However, when choosing between these two models, it’s important to understand what sets them apart and what they have in common. This guide will help you make an informed decision about which SUV best suits your needs.

Key Differences: Space and Versatility

The primary distinction between the 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Grand Cherokee L is interior space. The Grand Cherokee L is the larger of the two, featuring three rows of seating and room for up to seven passengers, depending on your chosen configuration. The second row stands out with best-in-class legroom, ensuring passengers enjoy a spacious and comfortable ride.

The third row is designed with convenience in mind, offering an available power-folding feature to maximize usability. Behind that third row, the Grand Cherokee L provides up to 17.2 cubic feet of cargo space. Fold the third row flat, and you'll have access to 46.9 cubic feet. With both rear rows folded, cargo capacity expands to a generous 84.6 cubic feet.

Family-friendly features elevate the Grand Cherokee L even further. An available rear-seat monitoring camera lets front passengers keep an eye on all rows via the Uconnect 5 touchscreen. Optional quad-zone automatic temperature control provides personalized climate settings for each seating zone. The available second-row console also includes dual-zone automatic climate control and USB ports, adding comfort and convenience for rear passengers.

Shared Features and Technology

While space may differ, the 2025 Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L share a wealth of premium features and innovative tech. Both models can be equipped with the Uconnect 5 NAV system, which includes a 10.1-inch touchscreen and available TomTom Navigation for easy route guidance. A class-exclusive front passenger interactive display allows the co-pilot to view navigation and send directions directly to the driver’s display screen.

Both models offer an available rear-seat entertainment system with optional Amazon Fire TV for in-car entertainment. The front passenger can stream shows, play music, or watch movies using wireless headphones, ensuring a quieter ride for the driver. Other tech upgrades include a 10-inch head-up display, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, and a wireless charging pad for added convenience.

Safety remains a strong suit in both models. Standard and available features include adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, active lane management, full-speed forward collision warning with active braking and pedestrian/cyclist detection, blind spot monitoring with rear cross path detection, ParkView rear backup camera, and ParkSense rear park assist.

The Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L offer identical engine options regarding power and performance. Drivers can choose between a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine producing 293 horsepower and 260 pounds-feet of torque or a 2.0-liter turbocharged plug-in hybrid (PHEV) that delivers 375 horsepower and 470 pounds-feet of torque. Both SUVs proudly wear the Trail Rated badge and can be outfitted with three available 4x4 systems along with an optional Quadra-Lift air suspension for superior ride quality and off-road capability.
