Off-Roading and Towing Abilities
Jeep vehicles are champions when it comes to off-roading, so it's no surprise that the Jeep Grand Cherokee L is fantastic when the pavement ends. In addition to standard four-wheel drive, you can also add several features to augment its off-roading ability. These include:
- Hill descent control
- Off-road camera
- Multiple transfer cases
- Limited-slip differential
- Adjustable air suspension system
- Skid plates
In addition to fantastic ability on rugged terrain, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L can also tow up to 7,200 pounds when properly equipped. While the Kia Telluride does have some off-road capability, it can’t match what the Jeep Grand Cherokee L has to offer. Plus, it can only tow up to 5,000 pounds.
Tech Features
