Head to head
Trim-by-trim prices (last 4 model years)
A fair comparison matches equivalent trims, not overall medians. Like for like: at the cheapest common trims, the Ford Edge SE ($24,250) faces the Jeep Grand Cherokee LIMITED 4XE ($24,375); the most common trims on the market are the SEL (77.3% of Ford Edge listings) and the LIMITED (45.7% of Jeep Grand Cherokee listings); at the top of the market, the TITANIUM ($28,897) faces the SUMMIT ($48,028). Share = portion of the model's trim-labeled used listings (a supply-side popularity signal: what the market actually stocks and sells most). “Cheapest”/“Priciest” mark the ends of the quotable trim range — trim ladders don't map one-to-one across brands, so this is not a factory base-model claim.
