Like all models in the Jeep family, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is powerful and capable. It has enough room for the whole family and their next adventure. At DeMontrond Auto Country in Conroe, TX, we love to talk about the performance highlights of this SUV.
The base Laredo model comes standard with a 3.6L V6 making 293-horsepower. If you are after the Overland, Trailhawk, or Summit trim level, your Jeep Grand Cherokee can swap that out for a 5.7L V8 making 357-horsepower. All models except the entry-level one can also get moving with a hybrid powertrain that pumps out 375-horsepower. No matter which engine you choose, your Jeep Grand Cherokee will have an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Rear-wheel drive is standard for models with a V6 powering them. Four-wheel drive is available for those versions of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and is standard with the other two powertrains. When properly equipped, the Jeep Grand Cherokee can tow up to 6,200 pounds.
