Starting at $44,640, it pairs a 293 hp Pentastar 3.6L V6 with full-time Quadra-Trac® I 4WD, 6,200 lbs of towing capacity, and a blackout-accented exterior that looks as confident on Flint Hills gravel as it does in a Fort Riley parking lot. It earned a 2024 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK and a 2024 MotorWeek Best Midsize Utility award. How Much Does the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 Cost to Own in Junction City? The Altitude 4x4 carries a base MSRP of $44,640 plus a $1,795 destination charge, putting the out-of-gate figure at $46,435 before taxes, fees, or options. That positions it squarely in the mid-tier of the Grand Cherokee lineup — above the entry Laredo trims and well below the Summit Reserve — giving Junction City buyers a meaningful amount of standard content without paying for luxury appointments they may not need. Feature Altitude 4x4 Base MSRP $44,640 Destination charge $1,795 For shoppers who want to explore available inventory, Valor CDJR currently has a pre-owned Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 in Silver Zynith on the lot — stock number D00286, with 53,389 miles — priced at $29,888. That vehicle carries the same Pentastar 3.6L engine, the same Uconnect 5 with 8.4-inch display, and the same Quadra-Trac® I 4WD system as a new unit, making it a practical option for military families or dual-income households. The Altitude trim's value story is straightforward: you get dark exterior accents, heated front seats, a power driver's seat, wireless charging, standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and full-time 4WD — features that typically require add-on packages on competing midsize SUVs like the Ford Explorer or Toyota 4Runner at comparable price points. For a household balancing a Fort Riley schedule with weekend trips to Milford Lake, that combination of daily-driver comfort and genuine capability is a compelling proposition. Value Your Trade-In Rugged Style That Commands Streets and Flint Hills Trails The Altitude 4x4's visual identity is built around contrast. Jeep gives this trim a deliberate dark-accent treatment — black roof rails, black exterior trim around the side windows, and body-color painted front and rear bumpers — that sets it apart from the standard Laredo without requiring buyers to step up to the Overland's chrome-heavy luxury aesthetic. The result is a stance that reads athletic and purposeful, whether you're pulling into a Junction City school parking lot or heading out on a gravel road toward the tallgrass prairie. The exterior rides on 20x8.5-inch gloss black painted aluminum wheels (available as an option) rolling on all-season tires with a 50-series profile and H-speed rating, giving the Altitude a planted, road-confident look. LED headlights — both low and high beam — come standard, along with LED daytime running lights and LED rear lamps, so the Grand Cherokee's signature seven-slot grille face is just as recognizable at dawn as it is at dusk. A roof spoiler and a standard rear window with intermittent wiper round out the exterior package. Five exterior colors are available on the Altitude 4x4: Bright White Clear Coat, Velvet Red Pearl Coat, Diamond Black Crystal Pearl Coat, Silver Zynith, and Baltic Grey Metallic Clear Coat. The Pearl Coat and Monotone Paint finishes are available as standalone options. Interior seating choices include Global Black Cloth or the upgraded Global Black Capri Leatherette/Suede combination — the latter pairing simulated suede and leatherette surfaces for a premium feel that punches above the trim's price point. If you're considering trading in your current vehicle toward an Altitude 4x4, Valor CDJR makes it easy to get an estimate on your trade-in value before you visit the showroom. Power and Control for Everyday Drives and Weekend Getaways Under the hood, the Altitude 4x4 runs Jeep's proven Pentastar 3.6L V6 engine — a naturally aspirated six-cylinder that produces 293 hp at 6,400 rpm and 260 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. Power flows through an 8-speed TorqueFlite® automatic transmission (code 8HP50) with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters, giving drivers the option to hold gears manually on steep Flint Hills descents or during trailer-backing maneuvers at a lake ramp. Feature Altitude 4x4 Engine 3.6L Horsepower 293 hp Torque 260 lb-ft Transmission TorqueFlite® Drivetrain All-wheel drive The drivetrain is Quadra-Trac® I, Jeep's full-time automatic 4WD system that distributes torque between the front and rear axles continuously without any driver input required. There's no mode dial to turn, no transfer case lever to engage — the system reads traction conditions and reacts automatically. For a household that transitions from a Junction City commute on a Monday to a gravel road heading toward Tuttle Creek State Park on a Saturday, that seamless transition matters. You simply drive. Suspension is a fully independent multi-link setup at both axles — coil springs front and rear — with front and rear stabilizer bars. That geometry keeps the ride composed on highway stretches between Junction City and Manhattan while still providing enough wheel articulation to handle uneven terrain confidently. Ground clearance is 8.4 inches unladen, with a 20.5-degree approach angle, 19.1-degree breakover angle, and 26.6-degree departure angle — geometry that handles the rolling terrain and river-valley approaches common across Riley County without drama. A standard Start/Stop system helps manage fuel consumption in stop-and-go traffic, and the EPA rates the Altitude 4x4 at 19 mpg city / 26 mpg highway / 22 mpg combined. With a 23-gallon fuel tank, that translates to a calculated range of 506 miles per fill — enough to cover a round trip from Junction City to a Kansas City weekend without a fuel stop each way. Buyers who want to get the purchase process started before arriving at the dealership can submit a quick financing pre-approval online to save time at the desk. Browse New Jeep Inventory Roomy Cabin Comfort for Family Days at Local Lakes Five adults fit comfortably in the Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 — and the numbers back that up. Front headroom measures 39.9 inches, rear headroom is 39.4 inches, and front shoulder room reaches 59.2 inches with 58 inches in the second row. Front legroom is 41.3 inches, and rear passengers get 38.2 inches — enough for adults on a longer drive to Milford Lake without the cramped-knee complaints that plague smaller crossovers. Feature Altitude 4x4 Seating 5 Cargo 37.7 cu ft Curb weight 4,365 lbs Towing 6,200 lbs Payload 1,685 lbs Behind the second row, about 38 cu ft of cargo space handles a weekend's worth of fishing gear, a couple of camp chairs, and a cooler without forcing a game of Tetris at the tailgate. Fold the rear bench flat and that figure expands to about 71 cu ft — enough for a full load of camping supplies for a Tuttle Creek State Park overnight. The loading floor sits at 32.4 inches off the ground, which is a comfortable lift height for heavy gear. Cargo load hooks are standard, and a 12V power outlet in the cargo area keeps a portable cooler or air compressor running. Inside, the standard seating material is Global Black Cloth, though buyers can step up to the Global Black Capri Leatherette/Suede combination for a more premium feel. The driver's seat is fully power-adjustable with five electrical settings including electric height, reach, recline, tilt, and lumbar — a meaningful comfort upgrade for drivers who spend long hours behind the wheel. Both front seats are heated. The front center armrest, rear center armrest, and rear seat center 3-point belt are all standard. The rear bench folds asymmetrically, allowing families to split cargo and passenger needs without fully sacrificing seating. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps everyone comfortable, with secondary ventilation controls at the rear passenger position. If you want to add Mopar accessories — roof racks, cargo organizers, or protective mats — Valor CDJR's parts and accessories department can source and install genuine Jeep Mopar components. Seamless Tech for Navigating Campus Roads and Open Prairie The Altitude 4x4 centers its technology package on Uconnect 5 with an 8.4-inch touchscreen mounted in a fixed orientation on the center dashboard. The instrument cluster is a 10.25-inch reconfigurable TFT screen that lets drivers customize the display layout — a practical feature when you want towing data front and center versus fuel economy readouts during a commute. Smartphone integration is wireless for both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with no cable required. Both subscriptions are included for an extended period (the data shows 999 months, effectively lifetime). A wireless charging pad is standard, supplemented by 4 USB connections up front and 2 USB charging ports in the rear — so a family of four with devices plugged in simultaneously won't run short. A 12V outlet at the front console and a separate 12V outlet in the cargo area add flexibility for accessories. The system includes a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot via embedded SIM card, with 1 GB of data per month included for the first 3 months — useful for keeping kids connected on a long drive or running navigation data in areas where cell coverage is inconsistent across the Flint Hills. Over-the-air software updates mean the system can receive feature improvements without a dealer visit. Voice control is handled through Amazon Alexa integration, which lets drivers send navigation destinations, play music, or check weather hands-free. The audio system runs through 6 speakers with AM/FM and satellite radio — a 6-month SiriusXM trial is included. Steering-wheel-mounted audio controls keep eyes on the road. The convenience suite also includes Keyless Enter 'n Go™ with push-button start, remote lock/unlock, remote vehicle start, geo-fencing, speed alerts, and vehicle diagnostics — all accessible through Jeep's connected services app for a 12-month included subscription period. Safety Built for Daily Drives and Outdoor Adventures The 2024 Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 earned a 2024 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK — a meaningful credential for families who prioritize occupant protection. The NHTSA awarded it a 5-star overall rating, with 5-star frontal and 5-star side impact scores. The IIHS rated its headlights as Good — the highest possible category — and the side impact test also returned a Good result. The small overlap front driver-side test came back Good as well. The passive safety structure includes 8 total airbags: dual front airbags for driver and passenger, front side airbags, front-and-rear side curtain airbags, and driver and passenger knee airbags. Front seatbelts include pre-tensioners and are height-adjustable for both driver and passenger positions. All three rear seating positions have 3-point belts. A rear occupant alert system reminds the driver to check the back seat before exiting — a genuinely useful feature for parents. LATCH anchor points are standard for child seat installation. On the active safety side, Full Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus monitors traffic ahead and activates automatic emergency braking from as low as 3 mph, triggering brake lights as a warning to following traffic. The system covers pedestrian and cyclist detection and operates across the full speed range. Blind Spot and Cross Path Detection uses radar to monitor both rear quarters, alerting the driver to vehicles in the blind zone and flagging cross traffic when reversing out of a parking space. Active Lane Management System applies gentle steering correction when the vehicle drifts across lane markings without a turn signal. The braking system is four-wheel ventilated disc with ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, brake assist, an electronic parking brake with auto-hold, and a hill holder function that prevents rollback on inclines. Roll stability control and electronic traction control are standard. A trailer stability program monitors sway when towing, automatically applying brakes to individual wheels to bring the trailer back into line — a reassuring feature when hauling a boat trailer on a crosswind day. Breaking Down 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 Pricing and Trims The Altitude 4x4 slots into the Grand Cherokee lineup at the fourth position, above the Laredo A, Laredo, and Laredo X, and below the Altitude X, Limited, Overland, Summit, and Summit Reserve. That placement is deliberate: Jeep designed the Altitude to deliver a visually distinctive, sport-dark exterior and a well-equipped interior without the leather-dominated luxury features that push the Limited and above into a different price bracket. At $44,640 base, the Altitude 4x4 includes content that competing midsize SUVs often reserve for higher trims: full-time 4WD, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 10.25-inch digital cluster, wireless charging, heated front seats, a power driver's seat with lumbar, LED headlights front and rear, and the full suite of active safety technology. The two factory packages available for the Altitude are the Trailer Tow Package (which adds trailer towing preparation and automatic rear suspension leveling) and the Mopar Finishing Package (a dealer-installed package that includes front and rear mud flaps). Optional upgrades worth considering include the 20x8.5 Gloss Black Painted Aluminum Wheels for buyers who want to reinforce the Altitude's dark-accent theme, and the Global Black Capri Leatherette/Suede interior upgrade over the standard cloth. Paint choices — Pearl Coat or Monotone Paint — and dealer-installed side steps (available in both Mopar Black and Mopar Bright finishes) round out the personalization options. Buyers who want a sportier entry point should compare the Altitude directly against the Ford Explorer XLT, Toyota 4Runner SR5, and Kia Telluride EX, all of which compete at similar price points but vary significantly in 4WD capability and standard safety content. Apply for Financing Warranty, Maintenance, and Service Insights for Jeep Owners Jeep backs the 2024 Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 with a clear, multi-layer warranty structure. The basic vehicle warranty covers 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. The powertrain warranty — covering the engine, transmission, and drivetrain components — extends to 60 months or 60,000 miles. Roadside assistance mirrors the powertrain term at 60 months or 60,000 miles, meaning that if the Pentastar V6 or TorqueFlite® transmission requires attention within the first five years, Jeep's manufacturer-backed roadside assistance program has you covered. Paint warranty runs 36 months or 36,000 miles. For a military household rotating through Fort Riley on a two- or three-year assignment, the 3-year basic coverage typically spans the entire ownership window, and the 5-year powertrain warranty provides meaningful protection even for buyers who hold onto vehicles longer. The over-the-air update capability means software-related service visits are often unnecessary — the system updates itself overnight. Valor CDJR's service team is familiar with the Grand Cherokee platform and stocks Mopar-certified parts for routine maintenance and repairs. Keeping up with scheduled oil changes, brake inspections, and tire rotations is straightforward to manage online — you can book a service appointment directly through the Valor CDJR scheduler without a phone call. Military personnel and their families are encouraged to ask about available service programs when they visit — the team at Valor CDJR values the Fort Riley community and is committed to keeping vehicles road-ready year-round. Schedule Jeep Service Awards and Expert Recognition Highlighting the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4 Third-party recognition for the 2024 Grand Cherokee is substantive. The model earned the Best Midsize Utility Vehicle — MotorWeek Drivers' Choice Awards (2024), a competition judged on real-world driving performance rather than spec-sheet comparisons. It also received the TOP SAFETY PICK — Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (2024), reflecting strong performance across the IIHS's updated test protocols. Additionally, the Grand Cherokee received the Automotive Loyalty Award — S&P Global Mobility (2024), recognizing that existing Jeep owners are returning to the Grand Cherokee nameplate at a higher rate than competitors can match. Expert reviewers reinforce the data. Edmunds notes that the Grand Cherokee delivers a rare combination of rugged exterior styling, a genuinely upscale interior, and off-road capability that performs on challenging terrain without sacrificing daily-driver comfort. MotorTrend describes it as a compelling midsize SUV package with refined cabin materials, intuitive technology, and smooth highway manners — characteristics that align directly with what Junction City buyers need across a range of daily and weekend uses. Car and Driver observes that the Grand Cherokee balances comfort and real capability in a way few midsize SUVs manage convincingly. Fuel Economy Fuel economy and range by trim Feature Altitude 4x4 MPG 19 city / 26 hwy / 22 combined Frequently Asked Questions from Jeep Shoppers The Altitude 4x4 is rated to tow up to 6,200 lbs with a braked trailer — enough to pull a loaded fishing boat, a small travel trailer, or a utility trailer with equipment. The optional Trailer Tow Package adds trailer towing preparation and automatic rear suspension leveling to help maintain an even stance under load. A standard trailer stability program monitors sway and applies corrective braking automatically. For a family heading to Milford Lake or a veteran couple towing a camper, that capacity covers the vast majority of recreational towing needs. The EPA rates the Altitude 4x4 at 19 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 22 mpg combined. The 23-gallon tank produces a calculated range of 506 miles per fill. A Start/Stop system helps recover fuel in stop-and-go driving. For a daily commute mixing Junction City surface streets with highway segments, the combined figure is a realistic planning number. Yes — both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard and connect wirelessly, no cable required. The system runs on the Uconnect 5 platform with an 8.4-inch touchscreen. A wireless charging pad, 4 front USB connections, and 2 rear USB charging ports support multiple devices simultaneously. The Altitude 4x4 uses Quadra-Trac® I, Jeep's full-time automatic 4WD system. It requires no driver input — torque is distributed front-to-rear continuously based on traction conditions. There is no part-time mode or manual engagement required. This makes it particularly practical for drivers who encounter variable road surfaces regularly, from wet pavement to gravel ranch roads to light snow.
