A brief history of the Jeep Grand Cherokee

The original Grand Cherokee debuted in 1992.

It made its entrance at the 1992 Detroit Auto Show as a 1993 model-year vehicle.

The later first-gen Grand Cherokees are still super cool.

A big V8 engine was a nice option.

The second-gen Grand Cherokee was a real handsome thing.

These rugged good looks still hold up today.

Definitely a 30-year-old interior, right?

The third-gen Grand Cherokee arguably set the tone for what we know today.

Now, the Grand Cherokee is better than ever.

For 2021, the new new fifth-generation Grand Cherokee debuts with this L model, which features three rows of seats for the first time.

A more traditional two-row model will debut later in 2021.
