The 2027 engine lineup splits cleanly: Laredo and Laredo X keep the 293-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, and everything above runs the 2.0-liter Hurricane 4 turbo, 324 horsepower and 332 lb-ft through a new Gen IV 8-speed automatic, with no engine options to weigh on any trim.

Both engines are rated for the same best-in-class 6,200 pounds of towing when properly equipped, and the 4x4 menu runs from Quadra-Trac I through Quadra-Drive II with a rear electronic limited-slip differential for buyers who see more than pavement.

• 324-hp Hurricane 4 turbo standard on most trims
• 293-hp Pentastar V6 on Laredo and Laredo X
• New Gen IV 8-speed automatic with the Hurricane 4
• Best-in-class 6,200-lb towing, properly equipped

Visually, the 2027 news wears tow hooks: Vapor Gray ones on the debuting Laredo Upland with its all-terrain stance, red ones on the returning Trailhawk, a late-year arrival whose 30.5-inch Goodyears and skid-plate armor back a class-leading 11.4 inches of raised clearance, and bright ones on the Overland above its 21-inch machined alloys.

The top three trims level themselves on standard Quadra-Lift air springs, and the paint chart picks up Sting Gray and High Gloss Black to start the year. The Auffenberg inventory will track the first 2027 arrivals in the Metro East.
