2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk and Overland Are Back With New Engine and Updated Off-Road GearJeephas confirmed the return of two Grand Cherokee trims that off-road buyers have been waiting for: the 2027 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk and the 2027 Grand Cherokee Overland. Both arrive later this year with production at Stellantis' Detroit Assembly Complex in Michigan. Pricing will be announced closer to launch.Trailhawk: New Engine, Same Trail-Ready ReputationThe Trailhawk name has carried weight in the Jeep lineup since 2013. For 2027, it gets a meaningful update: the new 2.0-liter turbocharged Hurricane 4 Turbo engine. That four-cylinder produces 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Peak torque arrives at 3,000 rpm, which means better throttle response at low speeds where it matters on the trail. The off-road hardware list is extensive:Quadra-Trac II 4x4 with two-speed transfer caseSelec-Terrain with Rock modeQuadra-Lift air suspension with electronic semi-active dampingRear electronic limited-slip differential30.5-inch Goodyear Territory All-Terrain tires on 18-inch Granite Crystal wheelsIntegrated TrailCam off-road camera with dynamic tire path overlaySix high-strength steel skid plates covering the engine, transmission, transfer case, suspension, and fuel tankAdvertisementAdvertisementThe result is best-in-class ground clearance of 11.4 inches, with approach, breakover, and departure angles of 36, 24.4, and 30.3 degrees. The Trailhawk carries the Trail Rated badge, which means it has been tested on real terrain including the Rubicon Trail. Maximum towing capacity is 6,200 pounds with the standard Trailer Tow Package. That lets you bring a trailer or off-road toys without a separate tow rig. Exterior cues include red tow hooks, a matte black hood decal with red Trailhawk lettering, and signature dark metallic accents. Inside, the cabin gets Nappa leather in Global Black with red accent stitching and a 12.3-inch infotainment display.Overland: Trail Capability With More ComfortThe Grand Cherokee Overland has been in the lineup for 25 years. The 2027 version continues the formula: legitimate off-road capability with a more premium interior. Off-road hardware includes Quadra-Trac II with a two-speed transfer case, class-exclusive Quadra-Lift air suspension, hill-descent control, and semi-active damping. It handles rough terrain without requiring the same level of spec as the Trailhawk. The exterior features bright tow hooks, painted black lower bodywork, and 21-inch machine-faced wheels with Granite Crystal pockets. Inside, the cabin comes with Nappa leather featuring Overland embossing on the front seat backs. Front seats are heated and ventilated. Rear seats are heated. A 360-degree surround-view camera with washer is standard.What Buyers Should KnowBoth models are expected to arrive at dealers later this year. Pricing has not been announced. If you are planning to order one, contact your dealer to get on a list. Popular trim levels on the Grand Cherokee often sell before they hit the lot. The Trailhawk suits buyers who want the most capable Grand Cherokee and plan to use it on trails. The Overland suits buyers who want a premium daily driver that can still get off the road when the opportunity comes. Neither is a badge-only trim. Both have the hardware to back up what they claim.
