How much does the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee cost?

Prices have softened 10.40% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 6,978 listings available, which gives you a solid pool to compare prices and equipment.

If you find a listing below $20,482.26, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee a good car?

Yes — the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee earns a 4.58/5 user rating and a 6.33/10 expert rating.

The model scores 8/10 across Look and feel and Technology.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, performance, luxurious features, and ride quality, and many also like the powerful engines and advanced safety options. The Grand Cherokee’s styling and off-road capability are also recurring strengths, which fits a vehicle meant to handle both everyday driving and more demanding terrain.

The trade-offs are clear: advanced safety features are not standard, and value for money is a weak point. The overview also frames it as a long-running model rather than a fresh redesign, so you should expect an older design with some compromises.

With 32.6% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have room to shop selectively.

Is the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee reliable?

Owners rate it 4.58/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable-feeling SUV, with repeated praise for comfort, performance, and the kind of features that make it easy to count on day to day. The same summary also highlights strong ride quality and powerful engines, which supports the impression that this is a vehicle many owners are happy to keep for the long haul.

The expert review also reinforces that it feels like a traditional SUV with broad capability, including serious off-road use. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that age-related wear and uneven build quality can matter more than the badge itself.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

At 69.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Focus on body condition, signs of prior repair, and whether the vehicle’s equipment matches the trim level you’re considering.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Grand Cherokee’s styling still looks right, but the cabin can feel less substantial as prices climb, with more hard plastic becoming noticeable in pricier versions.
• Powertrain: The standard setup uses a 295-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 with an 8-speed automatic, while V8 options add more power and torque for buyers who want stronger acceleration.
• Safety package: ProTech I is standard and includes a reversing camera, parking sensors, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. ProTech II adds low-speed forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. Advanced ProTech II adds full-speed forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, semi-autonomous parking assist, and rain-sensing wipers.
• Infotainment: The system includes an 8.4-inch touchscreen, navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, SiriusXM satellite radio, and SiriusXM Guardian connected services. A 4G LTE WiFi plan is available, and the interface also supports off-road information pages.
• Fuel efficiency: The standard V6 returned 21 mpg in combined driving according to EPA figures, and the test vehicle achieved 19.4 mpg in real-world driving.

Which 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee trim should I buy?

The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is offered in 10 trim levels: Laredo, Limited X, Summit, SRT, Trackhawk, Trailhawk, and the additional variants referenced in the trim lineup.

Here's the short version:

• Laredo: This is the entry point, so it makes sense if you want the Grand Cherokee’s core styling and capability without paying for the higher-end luxury and performance extras.
• Limited X: This is the best-value choice if you want a strong mix of equipment and everyday usability, including the 8.4-inch touchscreen, navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and the more upscale presentation shown in the test vehicle.
• Trailhawk: Choose this if off-road use matters most, since it adds all-terrain tires, skid plates, and the most capable 4WD system mentioned in the review.
• Summit: This is the more luxury-focused choice, but the review notes that hard plastic becomes more noticeable as you move up in price.
• SRT: Pick this if you want serious performance, since it brings the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 and a much more aggressive character.
• Trackhawk: This is the extreme performance option, with the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 and track-ready hardware.

ProTech I is standard on all trim levels, while ProTech II and Advanced ProTech II are the higher-level safety packages to look for if you want more driver assistance.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 6,978 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.40% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 69.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $20,482.26, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee's resale value?

The current average of $20,478 sits slightly below last year's $22,854.

That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy more affordably now but may also limit upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you can reduce the impact of that depreciation. The broad appeal of the Grand Cherokee helps support demand, but condition and equipment will matter a lot when it is time to sell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.58/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee safe?

It earns a four-star overall rating from NHTSA, and a 3/10 safety score from our experts.

Jeep offers three different collections of advanced driving assistance systems for the 2020 Grand Cherokee. ProTech I is standard on all trim levels and includes a reversing camera, parking sensors, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. ProTech II adds low-speed forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. Advanced ProTech II adds full-speed forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, semi-autonomous parking assist, and rain-sensing wipers.

The main caveat is that the crash-test results are not especially strong, and the headlights rate poorly unless you upgrade to the better lighting package. That makes trim choice and option content especially important if safety is high on your list.

Should I buy a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2020 if:

• 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 69.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.40% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.58/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It balances everyday use with off-road capability while still offering strong styling and available performance variants.

Consider the 2019 if:

• At $18,219, the 2019 costs less than the current year's $20,478 average.
• It is a rare SUV that handles both daily driving and more demanding terrain.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $22,566, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $20,478 average.
• It is the final version before the redesign and keeps the familiar two-row Grand Cherokee formula.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, selection, and the Grand Cherokee’s core strengths, the 2020 is the sensible default. If you are especially price-sensitive, the 2019 is the better value play, while the 2021 makes sense only if you want the last year of this generation and are willing to pay more.
