2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior – Shifter Feels Precise As Well As Expensive – Everything can be done with the 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This SUV is good at climbing mountains because it has accelerated four systems, a total air suspension, and a lot of ground clearance. Still, it’s a great choice for a family trip or a night out on the town because it looks good and has a nice interior. The Grand Cherokee can do almost anything, from going on the Rubicon Trail to taking you as well as your spouse to the orchestra hall.

2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Exterior
The Trailhawk model, which sounds aggressive but is very easy to live with, is smack in the center of a Grand Cherokee lineup. This trim level has been made for off-roading and comes with only two rows of seats. It has a Quadra-Drive II all-wheel-drive scheme and a digital limited-slip rear differential as standard features. Also, there is a Quadra-Lift air suspension, an unplugging sway bar, and Goodyear tires on the standard 18-inch aluminum wheels.
Engineers at Jeep can be very proud of how well their cars move. The Grand Cherokee’s frame feels as solid as a granite boulder like it won’t bend at all. This stiffness helps make the ride stable and comfortable, well with Trailhawk’s air suspension smoothing out bumps without allowing the body to flop around. Those extendable suspenders are a godsend when off-roading even though they start giving you close to 11.4 inches of ride height, which is almost as much as a fully loaded Wrangler Rubicon.

The 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior is classy and elegant, even though the testers was as black as a soot-filled chimney. All of the materials used here, from leather to a durable material to stitching, are beautiful. Well, almost all of them are. Even on stringed keyboards, it’s never a great idea to use piano black. This shiny, black material picks up dirt as well as fingerprints like crows pick up dead animals, and it’s easy to scratch. Even though this Jeep only has 1,600 miles on it, the inside trim looks like it has been dragged down a gravel road.
The dashboard of the Grand Cherokee looks great, and it’s easy to see and reach things such as the shifter, infotainment screen, and air vents. The Trailhawk’s heated and cooled power front chairs are comfortable to sit in all day. The bench in the second row is just as comfortable, with plenty of headroom, legroom, and assistance out of its firm cushions.
Backseat passengers also get butt warmers, which come standard on all models except the base one. If you need three rows, you can buy the Grand Cherokee L, which is more than 11 inches taller than the standard model. You could also buy a Jeep Wagoneer as well as Grand Wagoneer, but neither of those SUVs gets the Trailhawk treatment. 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior
The Grand Cherokee has a lot of techs to keep up with other high-end SUVs. For starters, all Trailhawks come with an 8.4-inch infotainment system with navigation, but the $1,495 upgrade fee for a 10.1-inch screen is well worth it. This screen has a Uconnect 5 touchscreen infotainment that is very responsive as well as easy to use. It is bright, colorful and clear. 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior
The 10.3-inch reconfigurable instrument cluster that comes standard on every Grand Cherokee is not as good as it sounds. The interface has not been well thought out, and it is surprising how hard it is to move through the menus. Besides all of these features, all models come with driver assistance like an adaptive cruise with stop-and-go, blind-spot monitoring, and lane-keeping assist. 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior
You could also get a digital rear view and a 10.3-inch display for the passenger side of this Jeep. This $1,095 touchscreen on the dashboard is hidden from the driver and lets the person in the back seat playing with the car’s cameras, set a destination for the navigation system, or watch their own entertainment on Bluetooth-connected gadgets or an HDMI port. All in all, this is a pretty cool feature, even though the on-screen interface is slower than the main infotainment screen.
2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Engine
The engine in this Grand Cherokee is a 3,6-L V6, but this entry-level model is anything but basic. Stellantis’s Pentastar V6 is often a pleasure to drive because it is smooth and quiet all the way through its rev range. It has 294 HP and 263 torque, which are both good for its class. Even though those numbers aren’t even close to what the extra 5.7L Hemi V8 (357 horsepower, 390 lb-ft) can do, the Pentastar motor is much more than capable of pulling a 4,747-pound SUV. The Grand Cherokee can even pull up to 6,200 pounds with that V6. If you choose the Hemi, you can pull a half-ton more.
The eight-speed automatic transmission in this SUV makes it easy to speed up. This gearbox is as intelligent as it is silky. It shifts gears smoothly enough that you can’t even feel it, and when you step on the gas, it keeps dropping gears to let the V6 engine breathe, and it does so especially well at engine speed revs. When you switch to sport mode, the throttle response, as well as transmission performance, get a lot better, much better than other midsize SUVs.
The EPA says that the all-wheel-drive Grand Cherokee Trailhawk gets 19 mpg in the city, 26 mpg on the highway, and 22 mpg overall, which is the same as what two-wheel-drive models get. I’m getting just under 18 mpg in mixed-use, which isn’t great. 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Interior
2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Price and Release Date
The price of this 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, which includes $1,795 in destination fees, is not too high at $61,040. Options that haven’t been mentioned yet include a dual-pane sunroof for $1,695 and silver zenith paint for $395. (Yes, that’s how they spelled zenith.) If you don’t want any extras, you can get a Trailhawk for about $53,000 or a core Grand Cherokee Laredo for much less than $40,000, if you’re really cheap.
