Jeep Grand Cherokee receives even more upgrades for the 2015 model year. The Grand Cherokee Summit models receive added features as well as a new Summit California Edition appearance package that further enhances premium exterior aesthetics.

The 2015 Grand Cherokee completely redefines the premium SUV, delivering consumers an unprecedented driving range, a choice of leading powertrain options, available clean-diesel technology, legendary benchmark capability, world-class craftsmanship, premium on-road driving dynamics, and a host of advanced user-friendly technology and safety features. Producing a class-leading 240 horsepower, Jeep’s award-winning 24-valve 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V-6 delivers clean-diesel technology with low CO2 emissions. It is capable of towing a best-in-class 7,400 pounds. The Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 delivers 290 horsepower. Pentastar-powered Grand Cherokee models tow up to 6,200 pounds.

All of Jeep Grand Cherokee’s engines are mated to Chrysler Group’s eight-speed automatic transmission. The 2015 Grand Cherokee features three available 4×4 systems (Quadra-Trac I, Quadra-Trac II and Quadra-Drive II), an available Quadra-Lift air suspension and a Selec-Terrain traction management system, all of which instill Grand Cherokee with its legendary Jeep capability.

All 2015 Grand Cherokees equipped with Off-road groups are Trail Rated. The Jeep Trail Rated badge indicates that the vehicle is designed to perform in a variety of challenging off-road conditions, identified by five key consumer-oriented performance categories: traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording.
