The Jeep Grand Cherokee is the most expensive of all the Jeeps. A new vehicle in this series could cost anywhere from $34,232 to $166,500 depending on the model chosen. Additional accessories could boost up the price of the vehicle.

The most widely held theory is that the military designation of GP begat the term "Jeep" and holds that the vehicle bore the designation "GP" (for "Government Purposes" or "General Purpose"), which was phonetically slurred into the word jeep.

Jeeps are some of the most expensive vehicles in the sports and adventure series. Depending on the model, you may have to shell out anywhere between $22,600 to $33,460 for a Jeep Compass. The price of the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is from $81,115 to $103,021.
