2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee (WL74) Feature Availability List -

[StingJayP]

The Trailhawk is not currently open for ordering.

Do you know when they will open the Trailhawk up for ordering?

 

[john150]

After checking the Feature Availability chart I have a couple of questions.
QT2 is only available on the Overland or higher. But...under Selec-Terrain it says this:
Selec-Terrain traction management system with five traction control settings (included with Quadra-Trac II on Limited; 4x4 models only)
How can it be included with QT2 on the Limited if QT2 is not available on the Limited?

Also, the chart shows QD2 as standard on the Summit.....does this sound correct?

 

[Indigovic]

The docs and the build tool for the non-4xe GC and the GCL 4x4s all seem to agree that QT I is standard on Laredo and Limited, QT II is standard on Overland, and QD II is standard on Trailhawk and Summit and included with Off-road Group on Overland.

On 4xe, though, Limited gets QT II.

 

[john150]

Thanks. I believe it is true that QT 2 is not available on the Limited which is a departure from previous years. So it shouldn't say (included with Quadra-Trac II on Limited; 4x4 models only).
Also, is the addition of the ELSRD all that is needed to make a QT2 a QD2?

 

[Indigovic]

I bet @chry3d might be able to answer that.

I bet @chry3d might be able to answer that.

According to the code guide I have QUADRA-TRAC II (R) 4WD SYSTEM (DKA) is standard on Trailhawk, Overland and Summit, 4x4 only. That's it, not available on any other model. This is from the 02/24 code guide. I think stuff like ELEC LTD SLIP DIFFERENTIAL RR AXLE (DSF) are pretty much Trailhawk, Overland and Summit 4x4 only. I remember years ago I could order a limited with the offroad group, not now. If you want that stuff, it is going to cost. I would love to keep my 2021 Trailhawk for another year but I do not think corporate will let me. If I cannot order a Trailwawk in a few months I will be forced to get an Overland which I do not want to. I could order a Cherokee Trailhawk (KLJH74) for hundreds of dollars cheaper (per month) but I had a few of those in the past and do not like them. We lease for only a year so I could, would have to think on it. I hate the way too small gas tank on the Cherokee, 13 gallons, that sucks. Corporate lease rate is a set percentage per month of factory wholesale cost and comes out of your pension.

 

[john150]

Thanks guys. So we agree there is no QT2 available on the Limited and the Feature Availability chart should not say (included with Quadra-Trac II on Limited; 4x4 models only) under Selec-Terrain. Do you still get Selec-Terrain with QT1 on the Limited?
Then as far as QD2, the Feature Availability chart says standard on the Summit, wrong also?

 

[Indigovic]

I believe you do get Selec-Terrain on Limited 4x4s, and Quadra-Drive II on Summit 4x4s.

On the limited you get this:
QUADRA-TRAC I (R) 4WD SYSTEM (DHY)
SELEC-TERRAIN (TM) SYSTEM (XAB)

On Trailhawk, Overland and summit you get:
QUADRA-LIFT (TM) AIR SUSPENSION (SER)
QUADRA-TRAC II (R) 4WD SYSTEM (DKA)
SELEC-TERRAIN (TM) SYSTEM (XAB)

According to the current guide.

QDII (AWB) is no longer listed in the guide, was last year. I think it's just part of the ELSD?

It seems that when a vehicle has QTII and ELSD, they sometimes (but not always) just call it QDII.

It seems that when a vehicle has QTII and ELSD, they sometimes (but not always) just call it QDII.

For example, if you go to https://www.jeep.com/bmo.grand_cherokee_wl.2022.html#/models/2022/grand_cherokee_wl and click “display model comparison,” it says “Quadra-Drive II“ for Trailhawk and Summit (noted as “available” for Summit because the 2x4 model doesn’t have it). But if you build a Summit 4x4, scroll down to the summary, and click “Standard Features,” the Mechanical Features section lists ELSD under “Axles” and “Quadra-Trac II” under “Transfer Cases.” Whereas the Feature Availability doc lists those models with “Quadra-Drive II 4WD system includes electronic limited slip differential for rear axle.”

The word Quadra-Drive doesn’t appear in the Owner’s Manual, so you‘re probably right that they’re phasing out that term, but the marketing department doesn’t seem to have gotten the memo on that yet. Their Product Info doc uses it five times.

You are probably correct. The jeep.com web site is not always up to date, The code guide is better as it is for dealears and is updated often. I would love to post the current code guide however it contains FWP (Factory Wholesale Prices) and MSRP prices. All corporate lessees have access to this and I am amazed no one has posted it, at least I have never seen it posted. I have no way to eaisly edit out the prices so I don't post it. It is the gold standard of what can be ordered and what is standard, not the jeep.com website.

Dealer says that qd 2 is not coming on my sr and his factory rep says there are supplier issues. So, no delete and no credit on the sticker they just stoped putting qd2 and replaced it with qt2–and raised prices last month.

That’s the final straw for me. I’ll wait for MY 2023 to get a vehicle that doesn’t have any deletes or standard options removed.

Imagine if they would delete elsd in Trailhawk 😂

I have noticed that features advertised on a higher trim levels are not always advertised as being standard or optional on the lower levels (basic marketing tactics to help upsell). And I've read on this site that some features are removed if parts are not available. So the following was my attempt to understand and simplify what should be available in the top three trim levels (if the website currently offers it is a different story). I reviewed the 2022 Stellantis Product Info documents, the WL product sheets on this site, and the Jeep model compare tools online. This helped me establish a baseline vehicle which is a very well appointed Overland 4x4:

Overland 4x4

Std features:
- Active Noise Control System (can anyone confirm this is std without needing the 19 speaker system)
- Trailer-tow Group II (Class 4 receiver hitch, 4 and 7 pin wiring harness, rear load-leveling suspension, full-sized spare tire)
- Faux Wood & Leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio, speed, Electronic Vehicle Information Center, voice recognition, and adaptive cruise control
- Quadra-Trac II active 4WD includes two-speed transfer case

Add the Advanced ProTech Group
- Intersection Collision Assist, Active Driving Assist, 360-degreee camera, heads-up display, Night Vision, and Map-In-Cluster display.

Add the Luxury Tech Group
- Smooth Nappa leather seat/bolsters/armrest/door, wireless charging, manual 2ed row window shades, digital rear-view mirror, Driver and passenger 12 way sets with 4 way lumber adjust and back-massager and adjustable front cushions and set memory, 4 zone temp control.

Add entertainment items (These could be in a package or ala-cart)
- UConnect 5 Nav with 10.1 in screen
- 19 speaker audio system (Parts availability may determine if its being offered?? - missing from online build)
- Front passenger interactive display 10.23 in (Parts availability may determine if its being offered?? - occasionally missing from online build)

=-=-=-=-=-=-

If I were to upgrade the Overland to a fully appointed Summit I would gain the following:
- Faux Wood becomes Absolute Oak.
- Quadra-Trac becomes Quadra-Drive (Parts availability issue? - maybe deleted)
- Smooth Nappa becomes Quilted Nappa
- Net New: Traffic Sign Recognition system
- Net New: Drowsy Driver Detection
- Net New: Optional 2-tone paint
- Net New: ParkSense Parallel/Perpendicular Park Assist ??

=-=-==-=-=-=-

Now if I were to upgrade the Summit to a fully appointed Summit Reserve I would gain the following:
- Absolute Oak becomes Waxed Walnut
- Quilted Nappa becomes Quilted Palermo
- Net New: Deluxe Suede Pillars and Headliner
- Net New: Ventilated Rear Seats
- Net New: 21 in wheels

=-=-=-=-=-=-

Some Std features on all three trim levels (not a complete list)
- Active lane management, adaptive cruise control, Full-speed collision warning, active breaking, pedestrian/cyclist detection.
- Blind spot monitoring, ParkSense front and rear sensors, rear backup camera, Rear cross path detection.
- Electrotonic stability control, hill-decent, hill-start assist, Tire-pressure monitoring.
- Ambient lighting with a five-color selection for instrument panel, front and rear doors.


Is there anything I'm missing?
Assuming this is correct, the price increases is approx 4K to 5K to go from the Overland to the Summit Reserve. Seems steep.
Kinda seems like the Overland maybe a better value proposition. Am I wrong in thinking this? Would love your input on this. I have an order in, but thinking perhaps I got the wrong one now.

There is always some second guessing no matter what trim level you order. If you decided a certain way at the time of order you will probably be happy with it. If you really feel you made a mistake you could ask your dealer to order a different one and put your original in their inventory when it arrives.

For me, I happen to value the parts of the Overland Lux package that come standard on the Summit, so if I were starting with the Overland, I would want to add that $2155. (I could care less about the parts that are in the Summit Lux package, so that’s $275 I wouldn’t add.) And I really want the McIntosh audio, which is $1935 on the Overland (including a screen size upgrade), $1675 on the Summit, and included in the Summit Reserve. So just between those two, that’s $4090 I feel I would “have” to add to the Overland. (I’d also add the ProTech package to any trim level, but since that price doesn’t vary from Overland to Summit Reserve—even though the contents do—it’s immaterial to my math here.)

So for me, the difference between the Overland I’d order (adding ProTech, Lux, and audio) and the Summit I’d order (adding ProTech and audio) is just $1645, and when I look at everything you get with that, I think it’s definitely worth it. The difference between the Summit I’d order and the Summit Reserve I’d order (adding ProTech) is $2805, which is a lot harder to justify. So for me, the sweet spot is unquestionably the Summit.

But I ordered the Summit Reserve anyway, because you only live once.

 

[Indigovic]

I should add that I’m currently undecided on the value of the front passenger screen. If I‘d been fully committed to adding it to my Overland and Summit builds at $1095, that would make the jump to the Summit Reserve (where it’s included) only $1710, which is a much easier justification.

So I’m going to start telling myself that’s what I would have done. 😁

I went with the Overland with Lux and 10.1" Uconnect and McIntosh. The Passenger Screen was expensive for what you gain. Passenger can always use an iPad...lol
I thought the 10.1" screen w/ McIntosh was good value for me. The Lux package provided the massage seats which was great for my age on long trips going south.

Each person has their individual wants (not always needs) and budget constraints.
