5 Ways Jeep Grand Cherokee Beats Competition

The Jeep Grand Cherokee continues to dominate in terms of capability, and rivals like the Ford Edge and Honda Passport cannot compete. For starters, the Grand Cherokee offers three available 4x4 systems and a class-exclusive Quadra-Lift air suspension system that provides up to 10.9 inches of ground clearance—far more than the Honda Passport's 8.1 inches or the Edge's modest 8.0 inches. Towing capacity is another area where the Jeep Grand Cherokee excels: it can haul up to 7,200 pounds when properly equipped, while the other SUVs top out at a mere 3,500 pounds. And with its available Trail Rated status, the Grand Cherokee is purpose-built for off-road adventures, providing drivers with access to water fording, rock crawling, and extreme terrain handling that the competition isn't designed for.

Inside the Grand Cherokee, luxury and functionality come together in a way that leaves others behind. You'll find premium touches, such as Nappa leather upholstery, real wood trim, and an available 16-way power-adjustable front seat with memory and massage features. Compare that to the Ford Edge, which maxes out at 10-way adjustable front seats without massage or memory on most trims. The Grand Cherokee also offers a dual-pane panoramic sunroof and ambient lighting with multiple color options—features that are either unavailable or limited to the highest trims on competitors. And with more rear-seat legroom and cargo space than many rivals, the Grand Cherokee doesn't just look good—it's practical too.

Jeep's Uconnect 5 system is one of the most user-friendly infotainment setups in the industry, offering a responsive 10.1-inch touchscreen, over-the-air updates, built-in navigation with real-time traffic information, and customizable user profiles. Compare that to systems in the Honda Passport, which often feel dated or clunky, especially with slower response times and less customizable features. The Grand Cherokee also offers a 10.25-inch front passenger interactive display—something no competitor in its class currently provides. And with available wireless device charging, Amazon Alexa integration, and a premium McIntosh® 19-speaker audio system, the Grand Cherokee isn't just keeping up—it's leading the tech race.

The Grand Cherokee comes standard with Jeep's full suite of advanced driver-assist features, including Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Active Lane Management, and Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking. Many competitors—like the Edge or Passport—require you to move up multiple trim levels to access similar features. Jeep also includes standard Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection, and offers extras like Intersection Collision Assist and Night Vision with Pedestrian and Animal Detection—features you won't find on most midsize SUVs. The Grand Cherokee even earned high safety ratings from both the IIHS and NHTSA, giving families even more confidence behind the wheel.

Do you need an SUV that suits your lifestyle? The Grand Cherokee offers available third-row seating with the Grand Cherokee L, accommodating up to seven passengers—something the standard Ford Edge can't do. There's also up to 84.6 cubic feet of cargo space in the Grand Cherokee L, which beats out the Honda Passport's 77.9 cubic feet. Plus, with selectable drive modes for snow, sand, mud, and rock, as well as an available rear-seat entertainment system with built-in Amazon Fire TV, it's ready for both road trips and school runs. Whether you're loading up gear, carpooling, or heading off-grid, the Grand Cherokee proves time and time again that it's more than just an SUV—it's a lifestyle vehicle built to handle it all.
