2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee Cargo Space and Third-Row Access: Full Feature Guide
The 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee delivers 70.8 cubic feet of maximum cargo space and 37.7 cubic feet behind the second row. That beats the prior standard 8.4-inch screen era model and adds meaningful carrying capacity for Oklahoma families and haulers. This page covers every cargo and seating spec, how the load floor works, and what each trim offers. Browse inventory at Johnsons of Kingfisher.
Why Grand Cherokee Cargo Capacity Matters
The 2027 Grand Cherokee 2-row seats five passengers and backs that seating with genuine cargo utility. With 37.7 cubic feet available behind the second row, there is room for a full weekend worth of camping gear, groceries for a large family, or sporting equipment for a travel team. Fold the second row flat and maximum cargo grows to 70.8 cubic feet, which is enough to swallow a set of mountain bikes or a substantial haul from a home improvement run outside Kingfisher.
Those numbers matter because mid-size SUV shoppers often settle for cargo rooms that look large in brochures but underdeliver when loaded. The Grand Cherokee is built on a 116.7-inch wheelbase, and that length translates directly into usable floor area rather than being consumed by thick door panels or intrusive wheel arches.
The second-row seat itself is a bench unit, which means there is no center console eating into the hip and shoulder room of middle passengers. With 58.0 inches of shoulder room and 38.2 inches of legroom in row 2, passengers are not squeezed even when the cargo area is packed behind them.

How the Cargo System Works
Loading and unloading the Grand Cherokee is straightforward because Jeep engineered the load floor to lower when the Quadra-Lift Air Suspension activates its entry and exit mode. On trims equipped with Quadra-Lift, the load floor drops to 30.4 inches from the ground, which is a measurable step down from the 32.4-inch height on standard-suspension models. That difference is felt immediately when lifting heavy items like a cooler or a tool bag over the sill.
The sill step height follows the same logic. With air suspension in entry and exit mode, the step drops to 18.4 inches, compared to 20.2 inches on standard suspension. For passengers with kids, dogs, or a bad knee, those two inches make a real difference.
The second-row bench folds to maximize cargo volume. Once the seat is down, the floor is wide, the ceiling is tall enough for bulky items, and the 23-gallon fuel tank is tucked well below the cargo deck so it does not eat into usable space.
The 360-degree camera system with washer, standard on Overland and upper trims, helps when backing into a tight garage or a loading dock. That camera system pairs with the Off-Road Pages feature, which displays pitch and roll angles, giving the driver confidence when loading the vehicle on uneven terrain before a trail run near Kingfisher.
Cargo and Seating Specs Across the Trims
The 2-row Grand Cherokee maintains the same core cargo dimensions across the lineup. What changes by trim is the technology and suspension system supporting the load floor height.
Laredo and Laredo X
Laredo and Laredo X receive a new 10.1-inch infotainment screen for 2027, replacing the outgoing 8.4-inch unit. These trims run the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and standard coil-spring suspension. Load floor height sits at 32.4 inches and the sill step is 20.2 inches. Cargo behind row 2 is 37.7 cubic feet, and max cargo is 70.8 cubic feet.
Laredo Altitude
Laredo Altitude steps up to the 2.0-liter Hurricane 4 Turbo, producing 324 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. Suspension remains standard coil-spring on this trim. Cargo specs are identical to Laredo. New 18-inch wheel design arrives for 2027.
Laredo Upland
Laredo Upland (new for 2027) adds all-terrain tires and Trailhawk-inspired styling. Cargo dimensions stay consistent. The rugged exterior prepares the vehicle for the dirt two-tracks north of Kingfisher without sacrificing the interior utility that makes it practical the rest of the week.
Limited and Limited Reserve
Limited and Limited Reserve gain a new 20-inch wheel design for 2027, plus a wireless charging pad and rain-sensing wipers on Limited. Limited Reserve adds auto power-folding mirrors. These trims use standard suspension, keeping the load floor at 32.4 inches.
Summit 4x4
Summit 4x4 is the flagship 2-row trim and pairs with the Quadra-Lift Air Suspension System, which lowers the load floor to 30.4 inches and the step height to 18.4 inches. The McIntosh 19-speaker audio system is available on Summit. Cargo specs remain 37.7 cubic feet behind row 2 and 70.8 cubic feet maximum.
Trailhawk and Overland
Trailhawk and Overland (late 2027 availability) both carry Quadra-Lift Air Suspension as standard. The Overland adds a standard 360-degree surround view camera with washer. Ground clearance reaches 11.4 inches with air suspension in off-road position 2, which means the vehicle can carry cargo over terrain that would strand a lower-slung crossover.
Grand Cherokee trim comparison
What 70.8 Cubic Feet Means in Real Life
Numbers on a spec sheet need context. Here is what the Grand Cherokee cargo bay can realistically hold in daily use around central Oklahoma.
Behind the second row with 37.7 cubic feet available, the space handles four standard roller bags, two large dogs in crates, or a full cooler and two folding camp chairs with room to spare. That is the configuration most drivers will use most of the time.
With the second row folded and 70.8 cubic feet of open floor, the Grand Cherokee can carry a 4x8 sheet of plywood (or two, laid flat), a full set of club-sport hockey gear, or a combination of large furniture pieces that would require a truck bed otherwise.
Towing adds another dimension of utility. The Grand Cherokee tows up to 6,200 pounds when properly equipped, which is a best-in-class figure for the segment. Grand Cherokee towing ratings. That means a loaded cargo interior and a boat or utility trailer are not mutually exclusive on the same trip.
The 11.4-inch ground clearance on Trailhawk means the vehicle can reach campsites and boat ramps that punish crossovers with lower clearance, while the cargo bay still holds everything needed for the trip.
For families in Kingfisher traveling to catch a Thunder game or head toward the Wichita Mountains, the balance of five-passenger comfort and genuine cargo capacity means nobody has to choose between bringing the gear and bringing all the people.
How Grand Cherokee Cargo Compares to the Segment
The Grand Cherokee 2-row's 37.7 cubic feet behind the second row and 70.8 cubic feet maximum position it at the top of the mid-size SUV segment for cargo. Most mid-size SUV competitors offer cargo volumes in the low-to-mid 30s behind the second row, with max volumes topping out well below 70 cubic feet. The Grand Cherokee's numbers come from a longer wheelbase and a lower load floor (particularly on air suspension trims) rather than from compromising rear-seat legroom.
The 38.2 inches of second-row legroom is competitive in the segment, and the 39.4-inch headroom in row 2 keeps taller passengers comfortable even on long hauls from Kingfisher to Oklahoma City or Enid.
The addition of Quadra-Lift Air Suspension on Summit, Overland, and Trailhawk trims means the Grand Cherokee can do something almost no competitor at this price point offers: physically lower the cargo floor to ease loading, then raise to maximum off-road height when the pavement ends. That functional range is what separates this system from a fixed-height competitor.
