Tuscaloosa Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee stretches 193.5 inches long and delivers up to 70.8 cubic feet of cargo space. That is a meaningful jump over the prior 8.4-inch screen generation and reflects a broader refinement push for 2027. This page covers every key dimension and shows current inventory at Tuscaloosa CDJR.
Size is a purchase decision. Buyers cross-shopping mid-size SUVs want to know whether the Grand Cherokee fits in their garage, whether it swallows a week of luggage, and whether five adults ride comfortably. The 2027 Grand Cherokee answers those questions with a 193.5-inch overall length, a 70.8-inch height, and a cargo volume of 70.8 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded. Behind the second row with all seats up, you get 37.7 cubic feet, which is enough for a full set of golf bags or several large rolling suitcases.
For families in Tuscaloosa who need more passenger room, the Grand Cherokee L (3-row) extends the package further, offering seating for up to 7 passengers and up to 84.6 cubic feet of cargo capacity. That distinction between the two-row and three-row configurations is the most important sizing decision a buyer will make before visiting the lot.
2027 Grand Cherokee full specs and trims
The Grand Cherokee's 193.5-inch length sits it firmly in the two-row mid-size SUV segment. Here is how the core numbers translate into real-world use:
This is roughly 16 feet. Most two-car garages handle this without issue, and parallel parking in downtown Tuscaloosa or Birmingham is no more difficult than any comparable mid-size SUV.
At just under six feet tall, the Grand Cherokee clears most standard parking garage clearances. The Quadra-Lift Air Suspension (standard on Overland and Summit trims) can raise or lower the ride height, which means the standing height of the vehicle at maximum lift will exceed the standard figure. Buyers who rely on low-height parking structures should factor this in when speccing an upper trim.
This is a best-in-class figure for the segment. That clearance is not just a trail number. It means the undercarriage clears curb cuts, steep driveways, and unpaved Alabama backroads with far less scraping risk than lower-riding crossovers.
That is the daily-use number. It fits a stroller, two large duffel bags, and a flat of water simultaneously.
Fold the second row and the floor becomes a near-flat loading surface suited to furniture runs, camping gear, or anything else that needs length.
That is the best-in-class maximum for this segment when properly equipped. A properly equipped Grand Cherokee can tow a midsize travel trailer, a ski boat, or a loaded utility trailer with the payload rating of 1,280 lbs supporting whatever goes inside at the same time.
The two-row Grand Cherokee seats five across all trim levels, from Laredo to Summit. Cargo volume does not change based on trim selection for the two-row body. What does change is what surrounds that cargo space.
Start with the 3.6L Pentastar V6 and a 10.1-inch infotainment screen. The cargo floor and rear opening dimensions are identical to upper trims. Buyers choosing these trims get the same 37.7 and 70.8 cubic foot figures as a Summit.
Move to the 2.0L Hurricane 4-Cylinder Turbo, producing 324 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. The powertrain swap does not affect interior volume but it does affect the weight the vehicle can move, which feeds directly into the 6,200-lb tow rating.
The new-for-2027 Laredo Upland adds 18-inch Trailhawk-inspired wheels and all-terrain tires. Larger tires raise the effective ride height slightly but do not alter the published 193.5-inch length or interior cargo numbers.
Gain 20-inch wheels for 2027, along with wireless charging and rain-sensing wipers. Interior volume is unchanged.
Tops the lineup with available McIntosh 19-speaker audio and the 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 NAV touchscreen. The acoustic treatment that accompanies premium audio installs behind interior panels, with no measurable reduction in cargo or passenger space.
Arriving later in 2027, these trims carry the Quadra-Lift Air Suspension system, which actively manages ride height. At maximum lift, the effective ground clearance exceeds the standard 11.4-inch figure, and the suspension can also lower the body for easier loading. Both trims retain the two-row, five-seat configuration with the same 37.7 and 70.8 cubic foot cargo figures.
For buyers who need three rows, the Grand Cherokee L is a separate model. It stretches longer to accommodate that third row and delivers up to 84.6 cubic feet of maximum cargo. Tuscaloosa CDJR carries inventory across both configurations.
Grand Cherokee L specs and seating
The 70.8 cubic feet of maximum cargo changes the math on road trips. A family of four heading from Tuscaloosa to the Gulf Coast can load every bag, beach chair, and cooler without strapping anything to the roof. With the second row up, the 37.7 cubic feet handles weekly grocery runs, school gear, and sports equipment without requiring drivers to tetris every item.
The 11.4 inches of ground clearance pays off on Alabama back roads and at boat launches where gravel ramps slope unevenly. It also means the front air dam takes less abuse on steep driveway aprons and freeway on-ramps with aggressive angles.
The 193.5-inch overall length is a practical number for parking in Tuscaloosa's shopping corridors and fitting into home garages built for full-size trucks. It is long enough to feel substantial on the highway but not so long that it becomes a liability in tighter urban settings.
Towing 6,200 lbs matters for families and sportsmen. That capacity covers most boat-and-trailer combinations popular at Lake Tuscaloosa and Jordan Lake, and it handles enclosed car haulers loaded with side-by-sides or ATVs.
The Grand Cherokee's 11.4-inch ground clearance leads the two-row mid-size SUV segment, and the 6,200-lb tow rating is best-in-class. Rivals in this class generally fall below both figures.
The 70.8 cubic feet of maximum cargo is competitive with segment leaders. Some three-row rivals offer more total volume, but that comparison is not apples-to-apples. Within the two-row class, the Grand Cherokee's cargo figure holds up against every significant competitor.
The 193.5-inch length is in the middle of the segment. It is shorter than body-on-frame SUVs that prioritize raw space, and slightly longer than compact crossovers that prioritize urban maneuverability. For buyers who want mid-size utility without the footprint of a full-size truck-based SUV, the Grand Cherokee sits in the right position.
The 324 hp from the 2.0L Hurricane 4-Cylinder Turbo outperforms most naturally aspirated six-cylinder competitors in the segment, allowing the Grand Cherokee to move that 6,200-lb trailer without straining, which directly supports the usable-space argument. A vehicle that can tow more simply does more.
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee packs 70.8 cubic feet of cargo room, 11.4 inches of ground clearance, and a 6,200-lb tow rating into a 193.5-inch footprint that fits Alabama life. Tuscaloosa CDJR has two-row Grand Cherokee inventory on the lot now, with the Overland and Trailhawk arriving later in 2027. Stop in, measure the cargo floor yourself, and put a test-drive on the calendar.
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee measures 193.5 inches in overall length. That places it squarely in the mid-size two-row SUV class and makes it manageable in standard garage and parking spaces.
The 2027 Grand Cherokee offers 37.7 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and 70.8 cubic feet of maximum cargo with the rear seats folded flat. The Grand Cherokee L (3-row) offers up to 84.6 cubic feet of maximum cargo.
The 2027 Grand Cherokee stands 70.8 inches tall in standard configuration. Trims equipped with Quadra-Lift Air Suspension can raise the body height beyond that figure, which is useful off-road but should be considered by drivers using low-clearance parking structures.
Ground clearance is 11.4 inches, which is a best-in-class figure for the two-row mid-size SUV segment. That clearance supports off-road use and everyday driving on uneven terrain.
The Grand Cherokee (2-row) seats five and offers up to 70.8 cubic feet of cargo. The Grand Cherokee L (3-row) adds a third row and seats up to seven, with up to 84.6 cubic feet of maximum cargo. The L is a physically longer vehicle built on an extended architecture.
The 2027 Grand Cherokee tows up to 6,200 lbs when properly equipped, which is the best-in-class maximum for this segment. Payload capacity is 1,280 lbs.
No. All two-row Grand Cherokee trims seat five passengers regardless of trim level, from Laredo through Summit. Cargo volume remains consistent across the two-row lineup as well.
