2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs 2011-2020: Changes & differences compared

The Jeep Grand Cherokee has finally been replaced with a new model. See all the upgrades in this side by side comparison.

WL
WK2
The new Grand Cherokee is both familiar and very different. The square fenders and all the Jeep design traits are there, but the sides are flatter and it's all very meh.
WL
WK2
The grille is primarily black with chrome rings for the seven slats, and a thick handle at the bottom. The entire front face is so vertical, it looks like its slanted forwards.
WL
WK2
The new Grand Cherokee's headlights are LED and even slimmer than the WK2's.
WL
WK2
The long wheelbase L comes first for the new Grand Cherokee and the short wheelbase model will arrive late 2021 or early 2022.
WL
WK2
The chrome line for the windows follows the top edge before hitting the rear windscreen and going to bottom of the glass, like on the Compass. The thin taillights make the tailgate flat, featureless and bland.
WL
WK2
The interior is much more luxurious and upmarket.
WL
WK2
Completely digital 10-in instrument display is standard on the new Grand Cherokee L.
WL
WK2
The Uconnect 5 infotainment system has a larger 8.4-in or 10.1-in screen.
WL
WK2
For the first time the Grand Cherokee will have three rows of seats with a maximum capacity of 7 people.
