2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Overview
Security Jeep is your local Jeep dealer serving Long Island Amityville Westbury Massapequa, and we are thrilled to introduce the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. This extended wheelbase version of the popular and segment-defining Grand Cherokee will soon be available at our dealership, and this Long Island review is an opportunity to answer some of the more common questions that we have received. Please note that the Grand Cherokee L is still in preproduction as of this writing. This means that while the details provided here are accurate at the time of writing, they are also subject to change.
Exterior – Jeep Dealer serving Long Island NY
Jeep had to extend the wheelbase in order to accommodate the third row. The wheelbase of the standard model is 114.8 inches. The L is 6.9 inches longer at 121.7 inches. The L version is also longer overall. The standard morel is 189.8 inches whereas the new model is 204.9 inches. The L is also wider by about an inch and around the same height. Eighteen-inch alloy wheels are standard. Wheels as large as 20 inches are available in various finishes and designs, and a power liftgate is included with the up-level Limited and beyond.
Interior – 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L near Long Island NY
The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L will be available at our location serving Long Island Amityville Westbury Massapequa in four trims: Laredo, Limited, Overland and Summit. The big change over the existing model is that the L boasts a third row of seats, and it can seat either six or seven depending on your seating choices. Front legroom is more than 41 inches. Second-row legroom is almost 40 inches, and third-row legroom is more than 30 inches. The reserved cargo area measures about 17 cubic feet, and you can fold the third row for about 47 cubes and both rear rows for about 85 cubes. Note that the interior has been completely redesigned. Do not expect the current Grand Cherokee cabin. This the new platform for the nameplate, and the standard model will be transitioned to it for the 2022 model year.
Jeep Grand Cherokee L Mechanical specs
The base Laredo model will come standard with rear-wheel drive. All-wheel drive will be available, and there may be more advanced all-wheel-drive systems available as well. It is unclear if any of the trims will come with all-wheel drive standard. The Grand Cherokee trims that do—Trailhawk, SRT and Trackhawk—do not have an L equivalent. In researching this Long Island review, we also learned that Jeep will offer its Quadra-Life suspension system—which automatically lowers ground clearance when possible for an improved ride—and Selec-Terrain, which features selectable driving modes.
Powertrain – Jeep Dealership near Long Island NY
Powertrain is another area where we received many questions that inspired this 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L review. The standard engine will be a 3.6-liter V6 mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The V6 makes 295 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque., Starting with the Overland, you will have the option of a 5.7-liter V8 HEMI that makes 360 hp and 390 lb.-ft. Jeep will also be introducing a 4xe model—a plug-in hybrid—but will not arrive until later in the model year and so few details were currently available. Properly equipped L models with the V6 can tow up to 3,500 pounds, and the V8 allows for towing as much as 7,200 pounds.
