The optional air suspension has a new Eco mode for reduced ride height at speed, and steering gets electrohydraulic actuation on all versions except the V-8s. Towing is up to 6,200 pounds or 7,400 pounds, respectively. The HEMI V-8 still makes 360 hp, but now gets 21 mpg on the highway. The base 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 carries over, making 290 hp and 260 pound-feet of torque but now rated up to 25 mpg on the highway-for more than a 600-mile range. For starters, a new eight-speed automatic boosts mileage in all powertrains. The visible changes are few compared to the updates in running gear. It also lacks features like GM's center-front airbag or Ford's rear-seat belt airbags, but it does have hill ascent control, which maintains steady throttle while the Grand Cherokee scrabbles up surfaces a Flex or Enclave can only dream about. New color schemes and new trim options, like open-pore wood, push the Grand Cherokee ever higher into luxury-vehicle terrain, though it doesn't have the third-row seating or funky-flexible interior of some bigger crossovers. Interior space is still quite good, and if anything, fit and finish has gotten better. It underscores one of the real strengths of Chrysler since time immemorial-the way it can finish a cockpit, given the right budget and time constraints. The cabin? It's as rich as the ones at Sundance, with marvelous textures and materials on the pricey models, and great layout and design even on the basic Laredo.

The regularity of its SUV shape has been de-blanded in back with new LED taillamps, so there's less in common with the X5 and Touareg, and more with the 1992 original. We're at a loss as to what Jeep was thinking with the new grille: it's an inverse of the usual seven bars of chrome, underplayed to a fault, a discreet piece in a niche that doesn't put too high a value on discretion. Without the chopped, blocky look of the last-generation ute, today's Jeep Grand Cherokee is quite a handsome ute. For 2014, it gains a new turbodiesel engine option, which gives it better highway fuel economy than some luxury sedans we can name. It's come so, so far-not the least in fuel economy. The Grand Cherokee, along with the Ford Explorer, is one of the "original" SUVs that kicked off the suburban utility craze in the 1990s. The result is an appealing alternative to even more expensive vehicles from BMW, Porsche, Land Rover, and Mercedes-Benz. With an SUV’s off-road capability but a crossover’s car-like ride, and its own take on rugged style, the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a study in contradictions-but they resolve into one impressive, capable, attractive vehicle.
