Fitting the Family: Inside the 3-Row Jeep Grand Cherokee L
Finding an SUV that comfortably seats a full crew without feeling like you are navigating a bus down Biscayne Boulevard is no easy task. That is pretty much why the Jeep Grand Cherokee 3rd row model—officially known as the Grand Cherokee L—has drawn so much attention at Aventura Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram.
By stretching the traditional Grand Cherokee’s wheelbase by about five inches, Jeep managed to add a legitimate back row without ruining the vehicle’s signature balanced proportions.
Real-World Usability in the Back Rows
Third-row seating on compact crossovers can sometimes feel like a gimmick reserved strictly for toddlers. But if you take a close look at the Jeep Grand Cherokee 3rd row setup, it becomes obvious that it was engineered for actual daily life:
- Legroom that works: With 30.3 inches of third-row legroom and 38.5 inches of headroom, teenagers and average-sized adults can ride along across town without feeling crammed.
- Child-seat friendly entry: The second-row seats feature a smart tilt-and-slide mechanism. Crucially, it works even with a child safety seat latched in place—saving parents from constant uninstalling headaches.
- Flexible layouts: You can choose a standard 7-passenger setup with a second-row bench or opt for captain’s chairs, which drop capacity to six but create an easy walk-through aisle to the back.
- Usable trunk space: Even with every seat occupied, you still get 17.2 cubic feet of cargo room in the back—plenty for strollers or grocery hauls. Fold the back rows flat, and that expands to 84.6 total cubic feet.
