Cargo and Third Row
The Grand Cherokee L seats up to seven, holds 17.2 cubic feet behind the third row and up to 84.6 cubic feet with the rear rows folded, and stretches to 204.9 inches long. Here is how the three-row Jeep handles real Cape Cod and South Shore family hauling.
The Grand Cherokee L exists for one reason: a third row without leaving the Grand Cherokee. It stretches the two-row model by 11.4 inches to 204.9 inches long, on a wheelbase five inches longer, and uses that space for a genuine third row plus more cargo behind it. With all three rows up you still have 17.2 cubic feet for groceries and bags, and folding the rear rows opens up to 84.6 cubic feet. Jeep advertises best-in-class second-row legroom, which is what makes the middle row comfortable for adults on a South Shore road trip.
This page focuses on the L's cargo, dimensions and seating. The engines, technology and pricing are shared with the two-row model and covered in the linked guides. If you rarely carry more than five, the shorter two-row Grand Cherokee saves length and money.
The L gives you three cargo modes depending on how many seats you need:
| Configuration | Cargo volume |
|---|---|
| Behind the third row (all seats up) | 17.2 cu ft |
| Third row folded (behind the second row) | A large flat load floor |
| Second and third rows folded (max) | 84.6 cu ft |
An available power-folding third row drops the seats from buttons in the cargo area or the touchscreen, so you can reconfigure without walking around the vehicle. That is the 84.6-cubic-foot maximum versus 70.8 in the two-row Grand Cherokee.
The extra length shows up as usable second-row space and a third row that works for kids full-time and adults on shorter hops:
| Measurement | Front row | Second row |
|---|---|---|
| Headroom | 39.8 in | 39.9 in |
| Legroom | 41.3 in | 39.4 in |
| Shoulder room | 59.2 in | 58.0 in |
Overall the L measures 204.9 inches long, 77.5 inches wide without mirrors and 71.5 inches tall, on a 121.7-inch wheelbase with 8.5 inches of ground clearance. Best-in-class second-row legroom, a Jeep claim, is the number families notice most on a long drive.
The L seats six as standard with second-row captain's chairs, and a no-cost second-row 60/40 bench brings it to seven. The third row splits and folds, and the second row tips and slides for third-row access even with a child seat installed. LATCH anchors, easy-entry seats and a low step-in height make loading kids around Barnstable County straightforward. An available Interior FamCAM camera lets the driver keep an eye on the second and third rows on the touchscreen.
Loading the L is easy: an available hands-free power liftgate, an available power-folding third row, tie-downs in the cargo floor, and available roof rails that take crossbars for a box or boards. Six USB ports keep three rows of devices charged, and rear ventilation ducts push climate air all the way back. The wide, square opening and flat folded floor make furniture, coolers and hockey bags simple to slide in.
Here is what the L's space means for real family trips:
| Setup | What fits |
|---|---|
| All seven seats up (17.2 cu ft) | Backpacks and a grocery run for a full house, or seven people's day bags |
| Third row folded | Airport luggage for five up to Logan, or a big warehouse-store haul |
| Rear rows folded (84.6 cu ft) | A dorm move, several bikes, or flat-pack furniture |
