The Grand Cherokee 4xe is the plug-in hybrid flagship of the Grand Cherokee lineup, and the Summit Reserve is the top trim. It is the most luxurious Jeep money can buy in Australia, and the most surprising: the 4xe powertrain is a properly capable plug-in setup that lets you do most of a week's commute on electrons.
What you are buying
A 2.0 L turbo petrol four paired with an electric motor making a combined 280 kW. A 17.3 kWh battery gives around 50 km of WLTP electric range. Full-time AWD with low range and Jeep's Quadra-Lift air suspension. Summit Reserve adds nappa leather, the McIntosh audio, the panoramic roof and the head-up display.
Cartell Assessment
The 4xe is the Jeep for the buyer who wants the badge and the off-road capability without the fuel bill. The Summit Reserve is the luxury answer to the Audi Q7 and the BMW X5 PHEV. The price is the catch. But the combination of luxury, capability and PHEV efficiency is genuinely rare.
AU Outlook
Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve 4xe pricing in Australia sits in the high-$130k drive-away range. Cross-shop is the Audi Q7 55 TFSI e, the BMW X5 xDrive50e, and the Lexus RX 450h+. Verify the latest figures with the Jeep Australia configurator.
