Millennials who grew up riding around in the back seats of their parent’s ’90s Jeep Grand Cherokees will now be able to share a new version of that memory with their own kids — or black labs. Jeep displayed the newest option for the 2023 Grand Cherokee 4xe in its hometown of Detroit this week, highlighting the 30th Anniversary Edition package that adds some commemorative interior and exterior elements to the current model-year Grand Cherokee alongside a new vintage-inspired Willys Wrangler 4xe.
The anniversary edition Cherokee uses the same 4xe system as its relatives, offering 375 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque with an estimated 40 km of all-electric range. Visually, it has a blacked-out exterior with a unique front fascia, 4xe-electric blue tow hooks, dual exhaust, new 20-inch black wheels, special-edition badging, and body-colouring on various lower elements.
Inside there’s a nine-speaker Alpine audio system, Uconnect 5 with a 10.1-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto plus navigation with 3D graphics, a wireless charging pad, ventilated black Capri leather seats, and standard safety tech like digital rearview and 360-degree surround view.
“When the original Jeep Grand Cherokee debuted in 1992 by famously crashing through the glass at Cobo Hall, it literally shattered expectations and redefined what a premium SUV could be,” said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America, presumably stifling an ‘Oh Yeah!’ a la Kool-Aid man, because how could he not?

“Three decades later and more than 7 million Grand Cherokees sold, the most-awarded SUV ever is still forging new ground with the electrified plug-in-hybrid 4xe model. The Grand Cherokee 4xe 30th Anniversary edition underscores how far the Grand Cherokee has come and is yet another example of the Jeep brand’s goal to be the electrification leader in SUVs,” he continued.
The 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe 30th Anniversary Edition package will be available in the U.S. for US$4,700 later this year, with models to arrive early 2023. Oh, yeah!
