The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee: Performance and Capability

The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee wasn’t named The Car Connection’s 2018 Best SUV to Buy for no reason. This SUV has long been a favorite of off-roading enthusiasts who also value high-end features, and it almost comes as no surprise that it has come out on top in a crowded segment. So just what makes this SUV so special? We’re glad you asked. 

Capability 

First things first. It’s a Jeep. That means unrivaled off-road capability. Even if you’re not crushing the most difficult trails, this vehicle is well-equipped for any ride—asphalt optional. This vehicle offers a multitude of 4x4 systems that keep this Jeep true to its roots. 

The Quadra-Trac I^® system maintains 4x4 all the time, ensuring this SUV will get you out of any tough situation, no matter where you may find yourself. The Quadra-Trac II^® 4x4 system takes this one step further and provides a low-range 4x4 component to conquer any slow crawl over difficult terrain. If that wasn’t enough, this SUV is equipped with an available Selec-Terrain^® system that will allow the driver to switch between five different driving modes: snow, sand, auto, mud, and rock. 

Performance 

This vehicle offers some truly stunning trim levels that take this SUV’s performance a step further. Upgrade to the aggressive Trackhawk level and experience a blistering 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds. Yes, you read that right. The SRT is also jaw-dropping, clocking in at 4.3 seconds. These SUV’s are truly your do-it-all machines. From the track to the trail, the Grand Cherokee is fit for any adventure. 

Not only are these models built for speed, they can tow almost anything you can imagine. The Trackhawk and SRT models both come with a special mode added to their Selec-Terrain^® just for towing. With this mode enabled, the SRT and Trackhawk can tow up to 7,200 lbs. Hauling the boat to and from the lake will never be an issue. 

The 2018 Grand Cherokee is truly equipped for any adventure. It is powerful, stylish, capable, and luxurious. Need help finding the vehicle of your dreams? We’re here to help.
