For those looking to buy a Jeep Grand Cherokee, now is an ideal time, especially if you have a budget of around $38,830. The entry-level Grand Cherokee Laredo 4×2 has dropped in price by $1,000 compared to last year’s model, making it the most affordable it has been since 2021. This price reduction extends to the entire 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee lineup featuring the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, including the three-row Grand Cherokee L version.
This reduction in price may be Jeep’s way of softening the blow for customers who were disappointed by the removal of the 5.7-liter V-8 option from the Grand Cherokee L lineup. Although the price cut is appreciated, it might not fully offset the loss of power, as the V-6 engine has 67 fewer horsepower and two fewer cylinders than the V-8. However, for those who were already leaning towards a V-6 model, the savings could be significant.
For those interested in premium features, the luxurious Summit trim for both the Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L has also seen notable price decreases. The Summit trim is now priced $4,000 lower, starting at $60,355 for the Grand Cherokee and $62,355 for the Grand Cherokee L. Buyers should also keep in mind that opting for all-wheel drive will add an extra $2,000 to the cost, regardless of the trim.
On the flip side, buyers hoping for a price drop on the Grand Cherokee 4xe plug-in hybrid will be disappointed, as its pricing remains unchanged for 2025. This hybrid model combines a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with two electric motors and a 17.3 kWh battery pack. The base model will continue to start at $62,285, while the top-of-the-line Summit Reserve can reach up to $80,945.
While the standard Grand Cherokee models offer enticing price reductions, the lack of discounts on the plug-in hybrid may deter some buyers. It’s important for potential purchasers to consider their engine preferences and feature requirements carefully, as the latest updates bring a blend of savings and compromises in power options.
