They are harder than I would like. I came from an F150 with the luxury package and the seats were amazing, these sears are hard and could be improved upon by being softer. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

Special ordered and have owned since May 2012. Can't say enough about engine performance and smoothness. After test driving a unit with the Pentastar V6 and finding it too underpowered, chose the 5.7L Hemi. More than enough power under all circumstances and STILL cannot get over how quiet and smooth this engine is at idle - have even exited the vehicle with the engine still running as you can neither feel or hear it running when sitting inside. Has more than enough power when passing on the highway and the only drawback is mileage.. Although not as good as stated, is still not bad. (Can't have the power if you don't use the fuel.) [Have a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 with the 5.7 and a 2010 Charger SRT8 (6.1) and NEITHER runs as smoothly/quietly as this engine.] see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

Impressive 5.7L Hemi. It pulls our 5000# trailer up hills with no problem. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

I live in Kurdistan Region which is a very mountainous area and jeeps have a great off roading reputation so it wasn't a hard choice to make. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

Off road capability with low range, gear driven transfer case in a SUV - not a car crossover. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

It has low range four wheel drive and it is not a truck. 3.6 V6 loves to rev, so good power to pass. Transmission is well programmed to keep the engine in its power band. Performs very well for the size engine in a heavy vehicle. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

I have the Quadra lift and love it. The 4x4 performance in inclement weather is superior to anything I have owned in the past (come from a long background of 4x4 trucks). The handling makes me feel confident and safe. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |

Before you start judging I know I put the power train & performance in my favorite section of the vehicle as well but if you really want to bring out the best of this vehicle you need to go for the optional 5.7L V8 Hemi engine because the 3.6L V6 Penta Star is just barely adequate to run this monster. P.S. Please keep in mind I'm not a car expert of any kind this review was purely based on my own experience and opinion Thank you. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review |
