2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Road Test Ratings

Superior off-road capability from Hemi-powered V8 but interior stylings and seating could use improvement.

A strong 5.7-liter Hemi engine is available. On-road handling is acceptable considering its off-road capability.

Nice front seats, but the rear is quite cramped. The ride is soft, bordering on floaty.

Major controls are easy to use and are logically placed. The exception is the audio and navigation systems, which contain too many similar-looking buttons.

The recently redesigned exterior looks too similar to the one before. Interior materials and fit and finish are below average.
