A 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee still asks 45% of what a 2027 one does — that's how much value it holds after 5 years. Among 17 suvs we price, that ranks #9, right at the class median. The steepest single-year drop comes at year 2 (−26.1%), after which losses ease to about 10.8% a year. Mileage costs it 48%: the same car reads 100k–150k instead of Under 40k miles.
