A Long Development History
Although the Grand Cherokee’s first production model year was 1993, the concept originated a decade earlier in 1983 under AMC, Jeep’s parent company at the time.
Four Distinct Generations
The Grand Cherokee has evolved through several key redesigns: the first‑generation ZJ (1993‑1998), the second‑generation WJ/WG introduced in 1999, the third‑generation WK launched in 2005, and the current WL generation, which remains in production through at least 2025.
Affordable Luxury From the Start
When the ZJ debuted, it was marketed as an affordable midsize SUV, with base prices around $18,000 and top trims nearing $30,000, positioning the Grand Cherokee as a value‑focused option in its segment.
