Jeep Grand Cherokee vs Toyota 4Runner Comparison Review


Compare the Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. the Toyota 4Runner
If you're in the market for an adventure-ready SUV, you'll want to narrow down your options. While the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Toyota 4Runner may seem similar, there are key differences that might catch your attention. Take a closer look at how these two full-size SUVs compare before browsing our selection of new Jeep models in Rockaway Township today.
Power and Performance
Under the hood, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee ensures you command the Denville roads ahead with its 293-horsepower V6 engine and eight-speed automatic transmission. Driving enthusiasts can enjoy an extra boost with an upgraded HEMI® V8 engine that moves 357 horsepower. Although the Toyota 4Runner also includes a V6 engine, its output is lower at 270 horsepower. Plus, when you get behind the wheel of the Jeep Grand Cherokee, you can expect to save extra at the pump with an EPA-estimated fuel rating of up to 26 mpg. For enhanced efficiency, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is also available as a plug-in hybrid SUV.
If you're looking for a rugged SUV that can haul heavy loads, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee is up for the task ahead. While the Toyota 4Runner only offers a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds, the Jeep Grand Cherokee takes your excursions to the next level with 7,200 pounds.
Interior Accommodations
When it comes to space, both of these new SUVs are designed to deliver. However, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee provides a bit of extra head, hip, and legroom to make long journeys more relaxing. Both models can offer seating for up to seven passengers with an available third row. The Jeep Grand Cherokee L offers roomy legroom for your third-row passengers while still offering 17.2 cubic feet of cargo space. This is a competitive figure against the Toyota 4Runner and its 9.0 cubic feet.
Whether navigating your morning commute or heading out on a long road trip, the Jeep Grand Cherokee ensures you enjoy the journey. While the Toyota 4Runner offers manual climate control and an eight-way power driver's seat as standard amenities, the Jeep SUV adds dual-zone automatic climate control and soft, cloth seats. As you explore the Jeep Grand Cherokee and its versatile lineup, you'll find heated and ventilated seats, massaging front seats, leather upholstery, and a power sunroof on the menu.
High-Tech Features
As you tackle your daily Roxbury Township drives, you'll want convenient access to your digital devices and vehicle settings. The Toyota 4Runner includes an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system to keep you connected. However, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee offers a more advanced experience with an 8.4- or 10.1-inch display, wireless smartphone connectivity, and a 10.25-inch digital gauge cluster.
Safety Technology
You can expect both SUVs to include a wide range of driver-assistance features designed to keep you and your family safe on the roads ahead. However, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee strives to impress with more than 110 standard and available safety and security features. This competitive technology allows you to feel confident getting behind the wheel. Some of these cutting-edge features include:
- Active Driving Assist
- Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go
