What's the Difference between the 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L?

Jeep® SUVs are renowned for their superb blend of rugged capability and daily-drivable comfort and practicality. The Jeep Grand Cherokee, in particular, exemplifies the Jeep® brand, offering refined and roomy accommodations, appealing features, and confident performance on and off the road. It's also available in two primary body styles.

The standard two-row Jeep Grand Cherokee has seating for five, while the extended-wheelbase Grand Cherokee L has three rows and room for up to seven passengers. Shoppers from Nashua to Concord and beyond can find a diverse selection of the latest Jeep Grand Cherokee models for sale or lease at Bob Mariano Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. While both versions share similar design languages and trim rosters, there are a few critical distinctions. To help you determine which one best suits your needs and lifestyle, here's a quick look at some of their distinguishing attributes.

2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L: Size and Accommodations

  • Dimensions (L x W x H): 193.5 x 77.5 x 70.8 inches

  • Legroom (1st/2nd/3rd row): 41.3 / 39.4 / 30.3 inches
  • Max Cargo Capacity: 84.6 cubic feet

The most apparent distinction between the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L is their size. The standard Jeep Grand Cherokee is a midsize crossover with roomy seating for five passengers and 37.7 cubic feet of storage behind the second row. When your Bedford, NH, outings require more cargo space, the rear seats fold easily to reveal 70.8 cubic feet.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee L is nearly a foot longer, leveraging its extended dimensions to add a third row and seating for up to seven passengers (six with second-row captain's chairs). It also has a more expansive cargo area. Folding the third row increases storage capacity from 17.2 to 46.9 cubic feet. With all rear seats folded, you'll have just shy of 85 cubic feet.

2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee L: Performance and Efficiency

A 3.6-liter V6 engine propels both the 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L, sending 293 horsepower and 257 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. For more surefooted all-season handling, the Quadra-Trac 4WD system is standard in Overland, Summit, and Summit Reserve trims and available for supporting tiers. Both SUVs can tow up to 6,200 pounds when properly equipped.

Are you seeking something more potent or efficient to power your Hooksett adventures? The two-row Jeep Grand Cherokee is available with the automaker's 4xe® plug-in hybrid powertrain. It combines a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine with an electric motor, boosting output to an impressive 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. A 17.3-kWh battery enables an EPA-estimated 25 miles of electric-only driving. Additionally, the Jeep Grand Cherokee reserves its ultra-rugged Trailhawk® trim exclusively for the 4xe® powertrain.
