Price of entry for a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo will be $31,480, including destination. A four-wheel-drive Laredo will add $1990, for a total of $33,470. Like the current Grand Cherokee lineup, all 2011s will have as their standard engine a V-6. However, the 2011’s will be the new 3.6-liter “Pentastar” V-6, which makes 280 hp and 260 lb-ft—gains of 70 hp and 25 lb-ft over the previous base motor. It will also include 17-inch wheels; a six-speaker stereo with CD player, satellite radio, and steering-wheel controls; two-row curtain airbags; keyless entry and starting; a tilting and telescoping steering wheel; and eight-way power adjustability for the driver’s seat. Options will be few; just a towing package, an off-road group, an engine-block heater, and a popular-equipment bundle.
