And with the appeal of two- and three-row versions, that driving confidence is available to a wider customer demographic.”The 2023 Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee L are graded “good” – the highest possible rating – in the four crashworthiness tests required to achieve TOP SAFETY PICK+: Small overlap front – driver-side Small overlap front – passenger-side Moderate overlap front – original test Side impact – updated testThe 2023 Grand Cherokee lineup features standard-equipment Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) technology the Jeep brand calls, Full-Speed Collision Warning with Active Braking and Pedestrian/Cyclist Detection. The system’s unique array of cameras and sensors satisfied the daylight and nighttime function required by the IIHS for a TOP SAFETY PICK+ designation.If the feature detects a pedestrian or cyclist and determines a frontal collision appears imminent, it will – if the driver does respond accordingly – activate the vehicle’s brakes. In certain conditions, the system is capable of bringing the vehicle to a stop.The Grand Cherokee’s system earned an “advanced” rating in daytime vehicle-to-pedestrian evaluations and was graded “superior” – the highest possible IIHS rating – in nighttime conditions.A TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating also requires an “acceptable” or “good” grade in IIHS lighting evaluations, across all trims. The 2023 Grand Cherokee lineup’s Premium LED reflective headlamp configurations achieve an “acceptable” rating and improves to “good” when equipped with high-beam assist.The Grand Cherokee lineup benefits customers further from more than 110 available safety and security features that include Intersection Collision Assist and Drowsy Driver Detection.The former helps detect vehicles approaching from driver’s left and right when nearing a crossroad. If collision appears imminent, the system delivers audible and visual alerts.If driver does not respond, system automatically activates vehicle’s brakes.Drowsy Driver Detection tracks behavior consistent with that of a drowsy driver, such as lane deviation. When certain thresholds are reached, the system responds with audio and/or visual cautions for driver to pull over.“At Jeep, we are not content to rest on our laurels as the pre-eminent SUV brand,” Morrison says. “Whenever possible, we seek to leverage advanced technology to enhance the ownership experience of our customers.”  Jeep BrandFor more than 80 years, Jeep has been the global leader in SUVs, delivering legendary off-road capability, advanced technology and exceptional versatility for those who seek adventure.
