The 2027 Jeep Cherokee in Cherokee trim carries the same hybrid, Active Drive I 4x4 and standard driver-assistance suite as the Laredo, both Limiteds and the Overland. Backed-up traffic on I-64 is where Active Lane Management and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go earn their keep. Snow is one of four Selec-Terrain modes, joined by Auto, Sport and Sand/Mud, for the first icy Missouri morning.

Black Soul Cloth upholstery pairs with manual seat adjustment, six ways for the driver and four for the passenger. Climate control is dual-zone and automatic, and passive entry with push-button start keeps the key in your pocket. The 12.3-inch Uconnect 5 screen supports cord-free Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Two USB-C ports sit up front. Outside are 17-inch aluminum wheels, LED headlamps, heated power mirrors and roof rails. Cargo space behind the rear seat is 33.6 cubic feet.

• 225/65R17 all-season touring tires on aluminum wheels
• Passive entry and push-button start
• Automatic high beams on the LED headlamps
• Active Lane Management plus Drowsy Driver Detection
• Wireless phone projection on the 12.3-inch screen

A cold snap is when the 2027 Jeep Cherokee Laredo proves its worth. Heated front seats join a fob-activated remote start as the additions you notice first in a St. Louis winter. Eight-way power adjustment comes to the driver seat, two-way power lumbar included. Upholstery switches to Soul Cloth with Labyrinth Embossing, and a Black/Arctic interior is available. Back-seat riders get two USB-C charging ports, LED fog lamps are added, and the wheels grow to 18 inches with a machine-face painted finish.

For 2027, Laredo buyers can order the factory Trailer-Tow Group, which lets a properly equipped example pull up to 3,500 lbs. Included are Blind Spot Monitoring with Trailer Detection, Trailer-Hitch Zoom, 4-pin and 7-pin wiring, a compact spare and the Class III receiver hitch itself. Read the window sticker before assuming a given Laredo has the hitch. Our towing breakdown for the 2027 Cherokee covers the rest.

• Fob-activated remote start
• Heated front seats, standard at this trim
• Eight-way power driver seat with power lumbar
• 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps
• Laredo can add the Trailer-Tow Group for 2027

Leatherette seating arrives with the 2027 Jeep Cherokee Limited, in Perforated Capri Leatherette finished with Cognac stitching. The steering wheel is heated, and phones charge on a wireless pad. The front passenger seat picks up six-way power control and power lumbar. The power liftgate opens to an adjustable height, handy under a low garage ceiling. Every Limited also gets an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a universal garage door opener, a 115-volt outlet and a security alarm.

The Limited Altitude delivers that equipment in a blacked-out finish. Its appearance package fits 18-inch gloss-black wheels plus gloss-black badging, belt moldings, D-rings and grille accents. Six of the seven paint colors add a gloss-black roof, while Diamond Black cars keep one color. An available Tech Group unlocks a hands-free power liftgate, Uconnect 5 Nav and the Alpine 9-speaker audio system with subwoofer on these two trims. Both also offer a dual-pane panoramic sunroof and the Trailer-Tow Group.

• Leatherette seats with Cognac stitching
• Heated steering wheel plus a wireless charging pad
• 115-volt outlet and universal garage door opener
• Gloss-black wheels and badging on the Limited Altitude

Everything in the Limited Tech Group comes standard on the 2027 Jeep Cherokee Overland, and so does the dual-pane panoramic sunroof. In practice that adds HD Radio, Active Noise Control, Uconnect 5 Nav and Integrated Voice Command from day one. Uniquely Perforated Capri Leatherette lines the seats, with 8-way power for the front passenger. A memory function stores the driver seat, mirror and radio settings.

The Alpine 9-speaker audio system with subwoofer is standard here, along with Side Distance Warning and ParkSense park assist at both ends. Front-seat ventilation and heated rear seats are bundled into the Advanced Pro Tech Group, an Overland add-on. It also includes a 360-degree Surround View Camera and the ParkSense Automated Parking System. Outside, 20-inch machine-face painted wheels and approach lighting are standard. A black roof and the Trailer-Tow Group are separate options.

• Dual-pane panoramic sunroof as standard equipment
• Navigation, HD Radio and voice command built in
• Approach lighting and a hands-free liftgate
• Radio, mirror and driver-seat settings held in memory
• Optional 360-degree Surround View Camera

Getting a 2027 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk means placing a factory order through the dealer. Jeep began taking those orders on September 30, 2026. Lifted 1 inch on its suspension, the Trailhawk clears the ground by 9.0 inches. Underneath, Active Drive II earns the Trail Rated badge with a two-speed PTU, whose low range is 2.92:1, and a locking rear axle under electronic control. Its crawl ratio works out to 37.5:1. Rock joins Selec-Terrain as a fifth mode. Ozark trail weekends are its natural fit.

Jeep rates its 28.8-degree approach, 21.9-degree breakover and 31.8-degree departure angles as best in its class. Steel skid plates protect the fuel tank, wiring and front axle, with red tow hooks at each end. Jeep also rates it to ford 24 inches of water and advises knowing the depth first. By Jeep's estimate, it returns 31 mpg combined, 33 city and 29 highway. Its optional trailering package brings trailer capacity up to 3,500 pounds, properly equipped.

• Two-speed PTU with a 37.5:1 crawl ratio
• Locking rear axle plus a Rock terrain mode
• Ground clearance of 9.0 inches
• Skid plates for the fuel tank, wiring and front axle
• Mantis Green upholstery with red accent stitching
