When it comes to mid-size SUVs, the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a top-ranking model that is hard to compete against. In terms of power and overall performance, other vehicles like the 2021 GMC Terrain simply can’t stand up to this robust beast.
Â
Popping the hood of the Grand Cherokee, you will find one of four engine options that depend on which trim you choose. For the sake of fairness, this showdown will cover the base units only.
Â
The standard motor is a 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 that includes stop/start technology. Pumping out 295 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, it is fitted with the Quadra Trac I 4x4 System for an enhanced off-roading experience. With a towing limit of 2,812 kg (6,200 lbs), you can pull a trailer with ease.
Â
On the other hand, the entry-level GMC Terrain uses a turbocharged 1.5-litre 4-cylinder that makes 170 hp and 203 lb-ft of torque. Paired with FWD, you can haul up to 680 kg (1,500 lbs). These numbers are far below those of the Grand Cherokee.
