The upcoming 2022 lineup of Grand Cherokee SUVs at Santa Monica Chrysler Jeep Dodge And Ram is about to get a little more electrifying with the Grand Cherokee 4xe. Like the Wrangler 4xe, this is a plug-in hybrid variant of the Grand Cherokee, offering the same great features that set the non-PHEV version of this full-size SUV apart from the Santa Monica, CA crowd, but with an efficient powertrain and advanced technology.
Engine and Fuel Performance
You're not sacrificing power to drive the 4xe. This hybrid powertrain gives you 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of instant torque. All this power allows you to tow up to 6,000 pounds behind your Grand Cherokee 4xe. You can easily take your boat out to the sea or bring a heavy load of equipment into the mountains.
Thanks to the plug-in hybrid nature of this 4xe SUV, you can switch between hybrid, electric and Esave drive modes. Esave mode lets you save battery power by relying on the 2.0-liter I4 gas engine alone. Alternatively, you can go all-electric to drive up to 24 miles without using a drop of gas, so you can complete local Santa Monica, CA errands without thinking about when your next visit to a gas station will be. In the hybrid mode, Jeep estimates that the Grand Cherokee 4xe can drive up to 440 miles before needing to refuel thanks to a 57 eMPG rating.
Interior Space and Amenities
A Grand Cherokee wouldn't be complete without offering plenty of space, and the 2022 model year doesn't disappoint. Legroom for the front seats sits at 41.3 inches, while passengers in the second row will enjoy up to 38.2 inches of legroom. Likewise, headroom is a comfortable 39.9 inches and 39.4 inches for the front and rear seats respectively.
The 2022 Grand Cherokee 4xe is available with several different trims, from the Limited to the Summit Reserve. This means that you'll Capri leather-trimmed and heated front and rear seats standard when you choose this 4xe SUV. You'll also have a heated steering wheel, and the nine-speaker Alpine® Premium Audio System includes Active Noise Cancellation for a smooth and quiet road, even in rough terrain.
Technology
You can access your smartphone through Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ thanks to the Uconnect® 5 infotainment system. The standard display size is 8.4 inches, but you can upgrade to a 10.1-inch display on the Summit trim, which also comes with built-in navigation. On the premium Summit Reserve trim, you'll also have a passenger screen, allowing your front passenger to easily help you navigate through the city or control the rear seat entertainment system to keep the kids happy.
Driving through Santa Monica, CA is a simple matter thanks to the standard 10.25-inch Fully Digital Driver Information Cluster Display, which can provide information like the remaining electric charge, estimated range, speed and more.
Safety
This PHEV comes with all sorts of Active Driving Assist features, including things like Adaptive Cruise Control, Active Lane Management and ParkSense® Rear Park Assist. You can also get Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist, a 360-degree Surround View Camera and Drowsy Driver Detection on higher trims of the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe.
Drowsy Driver Detection is a fantastic feature. It watches your driving patterns and movement, keeping an eye out for signs of drowsiness or distraction. If it notices any, it can alert you with both audio and visual warnings, so you can remember to take a break safely.
