Trackhawk Price: MSRP, Trims & Real-World Cost

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is the high-performance version of the Grand Cherokee, built for buyers who wanted a family SUV with sports-car acceleration. It was sold for a short window, which keeps the model year range small and makes the used market easier to read than for most vehicles.

Two prices matter here. One is what the Trackhawk cost new, which comes from the manufacturer. The other is what recent buyers have actually paid for used examples, which depends on mileage, condition, and the day of the sale. This guide keeps them in separate sections so you can compare the two without mixing them up.

The starting MSRP for the 2018 Trackhawk is the figure in the box above. MSRP is the manufacturer's suggested retail price before destination, taxes, registration, and any dealer add-ons. A new Trackhawk could cost more once those items and any optional equipment were added.

The destination charge shown is the separate fee that appeared on the window sticker. Combined with the starting price, it gives a clearer picture of the minimum a buyer paid at the dealership before options and local fees.

How much does a Trackhawk cost with options?

Jeep offered additional equipment and packages that raised the final price above the base figure. The exact total depended on how a particular vehicle was ordered, so there is no single "typical" sticker. If you are looking at a specific used vehicle, ask for a copy of its original window sticker or have the VIN decoded to see what it carried when new.

For a vehicle that is no longer sold new, the used market is the practical answer to "how much does a Trackhawk cost." The sales below are individual results from Bring a Trailer, an online auction site. Each is one car on one day, not an average.

The label on each row shows the model year and mileage, and the pattern is easy to see. The lower-mileage 2018 examples brought more than the higher-mileage 2019 cars. Mileage is one difference among several. Condition, options, color, service history, and the date of the sale also affect the result, and used prices can move quickly in either direction.

These results cover only a few cars. For the car you are considering, compare several recent completed sales with the same model year and similar mileage.

• Mileage. The sales above show a clear gap between cars with a few thousand miles and cars with several tens of thousands.
• Model year. The 2018 and 2019 cars differ in small ways, and buyers sometimes prefer one over the other.
• Condition and history. Accident history, repainting, and missing service records can reduce what a buyer will pay.
• Modifications. Aftermarket parts can narrow the pool of interested buyers, even when they were done well.
• Color and options. Certain colors and equipment packages are easier to sell than others.
• Timing and location. Auction results and dealer asking prices change with demand and differ by region.

The purchase price is only part of the cost. A vehicle with this much performance tends to use tires, brakes, and fuel faster than an ordinary SUV. Insurance can also be higher, and premiums vary by driver and location, so it is worth getting a quote on the exact VIN before you buy. Ask a Jeep service department or an independent shop that works on these vehicles what routine service and tire replacement cost in your area, since those figures are not set by the manufacturer.

Start with a vehicle history report to look for accidents, title brands, and odometer issues. Then arrange a pre-purchase inspection with a qualified independent mechanic, ideally one familiar with high-output Jeep and Dodge vehicles. Ask for service records and look at how the vehicle was driven and stored. Check that all open recalls have been addressed by looking up the VIN on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website at nhtsa.gov/recalls.

If you are buying from a private seller, confirm that the title is clear and in the seller's name. If you are buying from an auction, read the listing carefully, review the photos and the condition report, and ask questions in the comments before you bid.
