JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 4xe


The all-new 2022 Grand Cherokee 4xe is the first Grand Cherokee to offer a plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) variant. Its introduction signals the continued growth of the Jeep brand’s electrified mission of Zero Emission Freedom.

The 4xe PHEV technology is targeting an estimated 40 kilometres of all-electric range and 708km of electric and petrol combined.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe driver can tailor the hybrid powertrain to suit each trip, from daily commuting in pure-electric mode to extended highway road trips with no range anxiety, allowing owners to explore nature off-road in near silence.

Available in the Grand Cherokee Limited, Trailhawk, Overland, Summit and Summit Reserve, the 4xe propulsion system combines two electric motors, a 400-volt battery pack, 2.0-litre turbo-petrol, four-cylinder engine and TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission.

Overall, the 4xe system delivers 280 kW of power and 637 Nm of torque.
