If you're looking for an SUV to go the distance with, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is a popular choice – but, of course, Jeep Grand Cherokee MPG ratings are likely to weigh into your final decision. Because SUVs are typically larger and heavier than sedans, they tend to be less fuel-efficient. However, this well-renowned model offers you competitive performance: See the specs below and experience their power by taking a test drive at DARCARS CDJR of Rockville.
What Factors Contribute to 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee MPG?
The 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee comes in various options. For example, you could choose a two-row version, which has five seats, or the three-row model, which can seat up to seven. Of course, the extra length of the three-row model comes with extra weight.
You can also pick between a 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrain. The former will be the more fuel-efficient way to go, but many drivers like the reassurance of having 4x4 capabilities under rough weather conditions and the promise of better traction if they want to go on an off-road adventure.
A 293-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 is standard to the Jeep Grand Cherokee; however, three-row Jeep Grand Cherokee L models can come with a larger and more powerful 5.7-liter V-8. A 375-horsepower 4xe plug-in-hybrid powertrain is also available for a serious boost in efficiency.
Last but not least, your selected trim level can also affect your MPG ratings. The gasoline-engine-only version is available as one of nine Jeep Grand Cherokee trim levels: Laredo A, Laredo, Laredo X, Altitude, Altitude X, Limited, Overland, Summit, and Summit Reserve. The PHEV model takes on one of six forms as well: 4xe, Anniversary Edition 4xe, Trailhawk 4xe, Overland 4xe, Summit 4xe, and the Summit Reserve 4xe.
Given all these factors, let's dive into the numbers.
What Jeep Grand Cherokee Gas Mileage Can You Expect?
3.6-liter V-6 Powertrain, 4x2 Drivetrain
Two-Row Laredo A, Laredo, Laredo X, Altitude, Altitude X, Limited: 19/26/22 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1
Three-Row Laredo, Laredo X, Altitude, Altitude X, Limited: 19/26/22 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1
3.6-liter V-6 Powertrain, 4x4 Drivetrain
Two-Row Laredo, Laredo X, Altitude, Altitude X, Limited, Overland, Summit, Summit Reserve: 19/26/22 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1
Three-Row Laredo, Laredo X, Altitude, Altitude X, Limited, Summit, Summit Reserve: 18/25/21 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1
Three-Row Overland: 14/22/17 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)1
4xe PHEV Powertrain, 4x4 Drivetrain
Two-row 4xe, Trailhawk 4xe, Overland 4xe, Summit 4xe, Summit Reserve 4xe: 56 MPGe (Combined)2
The PHEV does not come in a three-row version or with 4x2 capabilities. Currently, the MPG ratings for the Anniversary Edition 4xe are not confirmed by the brand; however, they are likely similar to the rest of the PHEV lineup.
Lastly, according to Fuel Economy and their EPA estimates, the 5.7-liter V-8 powertrain delivers 14/22/17 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)3 for three-row Jeep Grand Cherokee L models configured with 4x4 drive.
Jeep Grand Cherokee Range
Besides saving money at the gas pump, many people want an SUV that will help them save time. One way it can accomplish this is by having a long range so the driver doesn't need to top off that often. Given the Jeep Grand Cherokee MPG, the EPA estimates you can travel 506 combined miles on a standard model with two rows and 4x2 capabilities.3 Meanwhile, the smaller gas tank but bigger MPG rating of the PHEV models means that it can offer up to 470 miles of combined city/highway driving.3
The PHEV Jeep Grand Cherokee can also allow drivers to travel up to 25 miles when fully charged without burning gasoline.4 This can significantly cut down on your monthly expenses, especially if you often make short trips to the grocery store or the gym.

How Can You Make the Most of Your Jeep Grand Cherokee Fuel Economy?
Your driving routine can significantly affect your Jeep Grand Cherokee gas mileage. However, if you had the choice to go through lighter, easier traffic on your morning commute, we guess you would, regardless of how it might help you save at the gas pump. With that said, if there is any way to lighten the load of your car, that can be beneficial. This vehicle can tow up to 6,000 pounds when properly equipped, but using that towing strength to pull a trailer can impact efficiency. However, even keeping your trunk full might make a difference, so unload what you don't need.
Additionally, routine auto maintenance, such as oil changes, can help you enjoy optimal performance by ensuring the moving parts of your engine work as efficiently as possible. Check your tire pressure often between visits to our auto service center. Underinflated tires can cause your SUV to drag more on the road and reduce your fuel economy by a significant margin. If you hear worrying noises or smells from your Jeep model, taking proactive steps is also likely to save you more money in the long run.
Whether you have always driven Jeep Cherokee models and are looking to upgrade to a new version, or this is your first time considering this comfortable and highly capable SUV, we welcome you to our Jeep dealer in Rockville, MD.
We can answer any questions you have about this vehicle's fuel efficiency and other specs, as well as talk to you about the steps Jeep automakers are taking to electrify their lineup more. Of course, some things you have to see – or feel – for yourself to really understand. That is why we will happily arrange for you to take a test drive of any available models. The roads near Washington, DC, are calling, and the Jeep Grand Cherokee is waiting to see what you make of it.
