Also new for Grand Cherokee L is a standard 10.25-inch frameless digital gauge and cluster with nearly two dozen different menus from which the user can select, including driver-assist technologies, such as adaptive cruise control, Active Driving Assist, Night Vision, Drowsy Driver Detection, and Traffic Sign Recognition (if equipped). Additional settings include media being played, caller identification, digital speed readout, drive modes, or tire pressure. Also offered are a full-screen, turn-by-turn navigation map and off-road pitch-and-roll display. The full-color cluster features five reconfigurable tiles for at-a-glance data or quick and easy access to the most used information. Drivers may choose between analog or digital instrumentation. All cluster settings can be saved to a user profile as part of Grand Cherokee L’s full vehicle customization and automatically recalled for each driver. On-screen graphics are delivered in real-time, animated 3D.

Interesting that these preview dash photos show a "DO NOT PASS" sign being detected. Mine has never done that.
Also, the night vision person detection ended up with a different appearance.
 
I don't understand the point of the night vision. I drove with it an hour yesterday and you either watch it or the road, not both. If I am properly watching the road, the yellow pedestrian boxes are not even noticed. The dash cluster is meant for glancing. I just don't get it other than gimmick and maybe useful on trails at 5mph.

I live in Chicago... and thought it was a gimmick... until I turned it on for laughs while on a dark road in the burbs. The stark yellow box pointed out two deer that I would have never noticed if keeping my eyes solely in front of me. They were in the , off the road... but could have easily jumped out. The yellow boxes stuck out like a sore thumb to me.

It also beeps at you when there is something in your direct path so you will get an early warning but it is a little cumbersome.

In the newest software, it also flashes on the HUD when an animal or person is in your path, which reflexively sent my attention to the night vision in the dash!

It's in the Advanced ProTech Group III for the overland

I have all the tech options on my Overland (night vision, nav, etc) and my HUD doesn't show the speed limit either.

In fact my whole Uconnect system is totally broken and virtually NOTHING on it works. It started with small problems in the first couple days and now I have no nav at all, no control over anything digital, screen constantly resets, no wireless carplay, sometimes no wired connection, no Sirius Xm, screen goes dark sometimes, otherwise constantly resets every few seconds, etc etc etc. It's just a total LEMON wit regard to ANYTHING tech/Uconnect. Total LEMON and now I'm just praying the "new stereo" the dealer ordered will actually come in six weeks later and I start getting the benefit of my $75k bargain.

Mine sometimes does that. Most of the time it doesn't identify the animals, but it does alert me to buses and snowplows and such. My whole Uconnect system is totally uselessly FUBAR though (nothing tech-related works because the interface/computer is totally defective), so who knows if that has anything to do with it.

Hahaha I have the same experience. The night vision is great at picking up buses. It has yet to identify a person on the road or sidewalk.

Mine picks up people pretty well, and it once picked up an elk directly in front of my car, but that's it. It's mostly interested in snowplows and buses. It's particularly concerned about snowplows.

Do plows out there have heated blades?
No, I don't think so, but I think the speeds they drive at might cause enough friction over hours of constant use to generate heat. It's weird though, because the whole giant blade (on the front of a big DOT dump/gravel truck) lights up white, like exhausts do. Maybe they are heated? It shocked me the first time I saw it. I'll try to get a photo of it if I can. Not sure what else would do it, but then the mountains a couple miles away even light up at night: Screen Shot 2022-01-03 at 10.19.28 PM.png
