How much does the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee cost?

Prices have softened 11.47% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 6,429 listings available, which suggests you have a healthy amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee earns a 4.62/5 user rating and a 7.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Look and feel at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its spacious interior, smooth ride, and impressive power. They also highlight its off-road capability, advanced technology features, and luxury feel.

The main trade-offs are the underwhelming base engine and the fact that advanced safety features are not standard. In practical terms, this is a good fit if you want a familiar two-row SUV with upscale character and broad capability rather than the newest redesign.

34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee reliable?

Owners rate it 4.62/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback also points to a vehicle that many drivers find dependable and trouble-free over time, with several noting that it feels like something you can count on. The expert evaluation reinforces that impression by describing it as a capable all-arounder with strong everyday usability.

Jeep Wave Customer Care includes free scheduled maintenance for the first three years and 36,000 miles of ownership, which can help reduce early ownership costs.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that age-related wear and deferred maintenance can matter more here than on a newer redesign.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

At 73.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and pay close attention to any prior collision repairs, especially if you are comparing similarly priced listings. A pre-purchase inspection is worth prioritizing because the model’s safety story depends heavily on trim and equipment. Focus on condition, maintenance records, and whether the safety and convenience features you want are actually present on the specific vehicle you are considering.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup ranges from the affordable Laredo and Limited to the upscale Overland and Summit, with Trailhawk for serious off-roading and SRT and Trackhawk for performance. Base trims are more value-focused, while higher trims add a more premium look and feel.
• Powertrain: The standard 3.6-liter V6 makes 295 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and is paired with an eight-speed automatic. An available 5.7-liter V8 makes 360 hp and 390 lb-ft, adds stronger towing capability, and brings a more satisfying rumble, but fuel economy is weaker.
• Safety package: The ProTech II Package includes adaptive cruise control with full stop-and-go, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, and automatic high-beam headlights. Some safety features are trim-dependent, so verify equipment carefully.
• Infotainment: Uconnect 4C with Nav includes navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a 4G LTE WiFi hotspot, and Jeep Skill for Amazon Alexa. It is responsive and easy to use, with voice recognition that works well.
• Fuel efficiency: The V8 is rated at no more than 17 mpg in combined driving, and the expert drive returned 18.2 mpg on a mixed mountainous loop.

Which 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee trim should I buy?

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee is offered in 7 trim levels: Laredo, Limited, Laredo X, 80th Anniversary Edition, Overland, Summit, and Trailhawk.

Here's the short version:

• Laredo: This is the entry point if you want the Grand Cherokee’s core style and capability at the lowest price. It makes the most sense if you care more about the SUV’s overall character than about loading up on luxury or advanced equipment.
• Limited: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds a more upscale feel without pushing you into the highest price brackets. It sits in the sweet spot for buyers who want comfort and everyday usability.
• Laredo X: This version builds on the value-oriented Laredo with a more appealing equipment mix. It is a good choice if you want a little more content without moving all the way up the range.
• 80th Anniversary Edition: This trim is for shoppers who want a commemorative version with a more distinctive presentation. It is best if you value appearance and exclusivity as much as equipment.
• Overland: This is the right step up if you want a more premium Grand Cherokee experience. It suits buyers who want a richer cabin and a more upscale overall feel.
• Summit: This is the luxury pick, with the plushest presentation and the most premium interior treatment described in the test drive. It is the best choice if you want the most upscale version of this generation.
• Trailhawk: This is the trim to choose if off-road use matters most. It is the most adventure-focused version in the lineup.

The safety package note is important: advanced driver-assistance features are not standard across the range, so check each vehicle’s equipment list carefully.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

This is a moderate, selective-buyer market, so you can shop with some leverage if you are patient.

• Deal availability: 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 6,429 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.47% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 73.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $22,379, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee's resale value?

The current average of $22,379 sits slightly below last year's $25,277.

That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can make the SUV easier to buy now but less likely to deliver a strong short-term appreciation story for a future seller. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you can still protect value reasonably well. The key is to avoid overpaying today, because the current trend shows the market has softened.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.62/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee safe?

The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, but IIHS gives it a Marginal driver rating and a Poor front-passenger rating in small-overlap frontal crash testing, and its headlights also rate Poor unless you upgrade to the high-intensity discharge setup with automatic high-beam assist.

It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

The available ProTech II Package adds adaptive cruise control with full stop-and-go, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, and automatic high-beam headlights. Jeep also includes a backup camera with guidance lines, parking sensors, and ParkSense parking assistance for parallel and perpendicular spaces.

The main caveat is that the crash-test results are a real weakness, so you should not assume every used example offers the same level of protection or driver assistance. If safety is a top priority, verify the exact equipment on the vehicle you are considering.

Should I buy a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 73.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.47% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.62/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• This year is the outgoing version before the redesign, so you get the familiar two-row Grand Cherokee with established styling and capability.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $20,333, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $22,379 average.
• It is a versatile five-passenger SUV with strong off-road capability and a familiar personality.

Consider the 2022 if:

• At $27,003, the 2022 costs more than the current year's $22,379 average.
• It brings a redesigned package with a major technology and sophistication upgrade.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, availability, and familiar capability, the 2021 is the sensible pick. If you are shopping strictly on price, the 2020 can save you money, while the 2022 makes sense if you want the redesign and are willing to pay more for it.
