​Towing capacity and safety are two important considerations if you want an SUV for outdoor recreational activities. The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee, available at Ciocca Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR) of Hanover, combines exhilarating capability and cutting-edge protection. This midsize SUV surpasses expectations, combining formidable towing potential with an array of advanced safety technologies. If you demand versatility and peace of mind, this vehicle delivers.
Unveiling Towing Capacity
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee takes towing prowess to new heights. Properly equipped, this beast can pull a whopping 7,200 pounds. Consider your towing demands met.
Three engine options cater to different needs. The 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 hits the sweet spot with decent power and efficiency. It delivers 293 horsepower, 260 lb-ft torque, and an impressive 6,200-pound towing capacity. The 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 is a powerhouse, generating 357 horsepower, 390 lb-ft torque, and a maximum towing capacity of 7,200 pounds. For economical, capable towing, the 2.0-liter I-4 DOHC DI Turbo plug-in hybrid offers a 6,000-pound towing capacity and delivers 56 MPGe. This power plant is rated at 375 horsepower and a class-leading 470 lb-ft of torque.
Power and Efficiency Balanced
The Pentastar V-6 will appeal to you if you plan to do moderate towing. It offers a combination of good power and good mileage. The HEMI V-8 sacrifices some efficiency for brute towing force, making it ideal for heavy loads. The plug-in hybrid turbo strikes a different balance, offering decent towing and stellar efficiency.
Competitive Edge
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee boasts the same tow rating as the 2023 model. Its 7,200-pound maximum blows away rivals such as the Ford Explorer at 5,600 pounds and the Toyota Highlander at 5,000 pounds.
This Jeep model has several towing-focused features that aid its capability and safety, including:
- Heavy-duty cooling to prevent overheating.
- Hill-descent control to manage speed on grades.
- Hill-start assist to stop rollback on inclines.
- Load-leveling suspension to keep the ride height optimal.

Safety Features Overview
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee is engineered with an unwavering focus on safety. Remarkable advancements provide this vehicle with cutting-edge protection capabilities.
Every Grand Cherokee is outfitted with an array of safety technologies, from preventative driver-assist features to reinforced construction designed to shield you during an incident. Jeep is committed to keeping you and your passengers secure, which is achieved through these three pillars of safety:
- Active safety systems: These technologies help you avoid collisions via smart driving aids.
- Passive safety measures: Passive safety features provide sturdy safeguarding if an impact occurs.
- Driver-assist technologies: Driver-assist features alert you to potentially dangerous situations.
Active Safety Systems
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee boasts state-of-the-art safety tech. Advanced systems monitor surroundings and intervene when necessary to enhance protection and reduce collision risks.
Adaptive Cruise Control
This safety system adjusts your speed automatically and maintains a safe distance from traffic ahead. It can sense vehicles in front of you and slow or accelerate appropriately. It's ideal for long drives, as it can make driving more convenient and less tiring.
Lane-Keep Assist
This technology uses cameras to track lane markers and makes gentle steering corrections to center your Grand Cherokee. It issues alerts to warn you if you drift unintentionally. This can help prevent accidental lane departures, which are a major cause of accidents.
Automatic Emergency Braking
The Grand Cherokee's automatic emergency braking system uses sensors to detect potential frontal collisions. It alerts you visually and audibly if you get too close to the vehicle in front of you. If you don't respond in time, the brakes engage automatically to prevent a collision.
These intelligent systems deliver true peace of mind. Adaptive cruise control eliminates constant braking and accelerating, while lane-keep assist combats the risk of distraction. Automatic emergency braking acts as an extra co-pilot.
Passive Safety Measures
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee prioritizes occupant protection through advanced passive safety measures. In a collision, these features can help minimize injury by absorbing and dissipating impact energy.
Air Bags
The Jeep is fitted with multistage front air bags that deploy according to collision severity. There are also side-curtain air bags and front seat-mounted side air bags to provide 360-degree shielding.
Crumple Zones
On the outside, the Grand Cherokee features front and rear crumple zones that redistribute impact force away from you and your passengers. This reduces transferred energy and the risk of injury.
Rigid Structure
The high-strength steel frame of the SUV maintains cabin integrity during crashes, shielding you from the impact.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee's impressive safety ratings reflect its commitment to safety. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration awarded the SUV a five-star overall rating, while the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety named it a Top Safety Pick+.
Driver-Assist Technologies
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee embraces the most advanced driver-assistance technologies to promote peace of mind. These innovations serve as invaluable allies on every journey, elevating safety and convenience to unprecedented heights.
Blind-Spot Monitoring
The blind-spot-monitoring system uses radar sensors to scan adjacent lanes for potential hazards. It illuminates visual cues to alert you of vehicles beyond your line of sight.
Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
Reversing from parking spots or driveways can be a nerve-wracking affair. That's why the Grand Cherokee is equipped with rear cross-traffic alert. This system uses angled radar beams to detect approaching traffic and issue timely warnings to mitigate potential collisions.
Parking Assistance
Parallel parking can be stressful. The parking assistance feature harnesses an array of sensors to guide you effortlessly into even the tightest spaces. A 360-degree surround-view camera further enhances your confidence and safety.
