Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Review: The Luxury Within

The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit targets a higher level of luxury, pairing a quilted-leather interior with wood trim and a standard 19-speaker McIntosh audio system. Reviewers praised the cabin’s comfort and noted the SUV’s massaging seats, along with styling described as evolutionary. But the new Hurricane 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder—rated at 324 horsepower—fell short in day-to-day driving, with performance described as labored and uneven. The review calls the powertrain an “odd fit” for a high-end SUV, suggesting a smoother engine would better match the Summit’s upscale intent and price. The tester’s weeklong vehicle stickered at $66,585 including destination and options such as hands-free driving assist.
