2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Bedford NY

Could you overview the powertrains here?

All Jeep Grand Cherokee engines put with a strong-performing TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission. Further, Quadra-Drive II with a rear Electronic Limited Slip Differential (ELSD) delivers industry-leading tractive capability and Selec-Speed Control comes with Hill-ascent and Hill-descent Control. Hill-Descent Control even operates when in reverse, making the Grand Cherokee that much more ready for anything! The standard Pentastar 3.6-L V-6 engine tows up to 6,200-lbs and sees 295-hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. The accessible 5.7L V-8 sports 360-hp and 390 lb-ft of torque, which then enables towing of up to 7,200-pounds! Enter the Trackhawk with its almost incomprehensible 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 engine ranked at 707-hp and 645 lb-ft of torque. Know that with this model, you could go a top speed of 180 mph, get from 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds, and zip past a quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds! Then the SRT model showcases (or is that showboats?) its 6.4-L V-8 with Fuel Saver Tech that originates 475-hp and 470 lb-ft of torque.

What do the models offer?

There are seven models of the 2020 version: the Laredo, Limited, Trailhawk, Overland, Summit, SRT, and Trackhawk. That last one, the Trackhawk, is the most potent and swiftest SUV made in history, as well as the most competent factory-produced and one of the most luxuriant Grand Cherokee models simultaneously. The Trackhawk brings the heat with an enhanced adaptive suspension, lightweight 20" wheels surrounded by high-performance tires, Brembo brakes, and more! Both SRT and Trackhawk models both install 5 dynamic drive modes as well as standard launch control. The SRT model means business with features like a specific AWD system for high-performance driving, sport-tuned brakes & steering, summer performance tires, a limited-slip rear differential, as well as a sport body kit! The Laredo model ensures you get your money's worth with a slew of standard features, such as a 6-speaker sound system, Uconnect within the 7" touchscreen interface, rear parking sensors, 2-zone auto temp control, and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay. From there we jump on to the leather-seated Limited model with its 8.4-inch touchscreen interface, a power liftgate, remote engine start, heated front/rear seats, and more! For those in the outside world a lot, look no further than the Trailhawk model! It has 4WD with low-range gearing (within Quadra-Trac II), skid plating, a terrain-matching traction control system (Quadra-Drive II), the Quadra-Lift adaptable air suspension, a renewed instrument cluster layout, unsurpassed outside style, and, naturally, off-roading tires. Need to get over the land but also look super-stylish? Consider the Overland model with its original Dark Sienna/Black interior option, an adjustable air suspension, as well as a refreshed instrument cluster display. Then we move at long last to the Summit, a model that will absolutely get you noticed with its 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system (with active noise-canceling tech), a self-parking system, an entire series of modern protective functionalities, and plush leather upholstery. That's quite a bit, and most will be pleased with any model thay check out!

Can you explain the drive mode system in more detail?

Sure, here's a brief run-down! Auto Mode auto-adjusts and brings a 40-percent front to 60-percent rear torque split for excellent traction. The Sport Mode reduces shift times by 50-percent compared to the prior Mode, then powers up the paddle shifters, and locates a 35/65 torque split. The Track Mode minimizes by 68-percent the transmission shift times (to 160 milliseconds) and magnifies into a 30/70 torque split for incredible track-oriented performance. Snow Mode as you might imagine gets into traction optimization to fulfill the best performance on snow & ice, and uses a 50/50 torque split. Then the Tow Mode manages 60/40 torque split, and adjusts torque output for even response as well as changes the suspension to resist pitch & yaw, in efforts to produce the greatest towing accomplishment possible!
