The vehicle arrived in Australia in May 2022.The range is mostly powered by a 3.6-litre V6 developing 210kW and 344Nm.Saving for V6-powered Night Eagles are between $12,500-$13,300 (5/7 seat), the mid-spec Limited $11,000-$12,800, Overland $20,500-$21,300 and Summit Reserve seven-seat $28,000.Savings also apply to the five-seat Summit Reserve 4xe plug-in hybrid to the tune of $18,500.It uses a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder and two electric motors powered by a 17.3kWh battery. The result is 280kW/637Nm and WLTP 52km EV-only driving range.When Jeep launched the fifth-gen Grand Cherokee range locally it planned to move upmarket. The vehicle is dearer than rivals such as the Hyundai Palisade (from $66,800) and Mazda CX-90 (from $74,400).Sales have slowed since the Grand Cherokee's introduction, with Jeep shifting just 254 examples down 43.8 per on last year.Jeep Australia did not specify an end date to the sale or communicate how many examples are in stock.It's the first major price cut for a combustion vehicle ahead of EOFY. Electric vehicle makers, including Tesla, BYD, Peugeot, Renault and Nissan, have all slashed prices lately.Jeep Grand Cherokee prices (before on-road costs, in stock MY23 models)Jeep Grand Cherokee L seven-seat prices (before on-road costs, in stock MY23 models)

Jeep's first EV is here to Avenge now lost small SUVs from its past like the Renegade it replaces. But does it have the right ingredients to shake the MG ZS EV?

The Jeep Wrangler hasn't been this affordable in years and now the 2024 comes overhauled with new features and a new engine.

Jeep's electric Wagoneer S has been leaked just days after being teased - will this new premium-look SUV change the brand's fortunes in Australia?

Jeep's Wagoneer goes electric-only with new platform and a promised 3.5 second 0-100km/h sprint time.

Here is a list of several discontinued models that have actually been registered as new vehicles in Australia during 2023. Some were pulled from the market just the year prior, while others were deleted long before that. Spooky!

A large number of major automotive brands celebrated booming sales in a record year for new-car registrations in 2023, but not every carmaker was popping champagne corks when figures were released earlier this month.

Does Jeep's petrol-powered pick-up, the Gladiator, deserve to be cross-shopped against the Ford Ranger Raptor?On paper, the model's top-spec Rubicon seems like an off-road beast in terms of 4WD mechanicals and driver-assist tech.And though history is littered with failed paper champions, the Gladiator Rubicon appears to be one of the most capable showroom-standard 4WD utes in Australia.

The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon is one of those vehicles that occupies a niche within a niche – similar to the Suzuki Jimny and Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series. It's a hardcore off-road vehicle with very few concessions to comfort, safety and common sense.

The Jeep Avenger is, by far, the most important model the American brand will release in a long time - potentially ever.
