The current-generation Grand Cherokee has been on sale for nearly 10 years. Normally, that would be cause for concern — going that long often results in a vehicle having a stale design and outdated features. But Jeep has done an admirable job of keeping this well-known SUV fresh.
Part of the credit goes to the Grand Cherokee's mix of features. You'll find the latest advanced driver safety aids, for instance, as well as a crisp-looking infotainment system that includes standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The interior has an easy-to-use center console layout, too.
A big part of the credit, though, goes to the Grand Cherokee's available engines. Under the hood of the Trackhawk, there's an engine so powerful that no other modern SUV can compete: a supercharged V8 (707 horsepower, 645 lb-ft of torque). And it's not just a fast SUV. It also provides a stout 7,200-pound towing capacity.
One of the most powerful engines on the market today, the 6.2-liter V8 is sourced from Dodge's Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. In the Grand Cherokee, it's paired with all-wheel drive, giving it all-weather capability along with the ability to scare just about any kid who sits in the back seat.
It's getting a bit long in the tooth, but the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is still one of the most capable midsize SUVs on sale today. And with the Trackhawk trim level, it's truly unique.
Notably, we picked the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk as one of Edmunds' Fastest SUVs for 2019.
