To make sure you have plenty of traction when you’re hauling, this vehicle can also be equipped with a 4x4 driveline. This system will send torque to all four of your wheels for enhanced acceleration on slippery surfaces. You can even upgrade to an available Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension System, which lets you adjust your ground clearance on demand.

Not only that, but the Grand Cherokee also comes with various features that are designed to make hooking up your trailer easier. To tow like a pro, just equip your SUV with the available 7-and 4-pin wiring harness and Class IV hitch receiver. These tools will make setting your vehicle to tow so much easier.

In order to make the most of your engine power, you’ll need a solid transmission. To help you achieve such impressive performance, this vehicle is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Thanks to the high gear count, you’ll be able to reach higher speeds much more easily while towing.

Helpful Safety Features

When you’re towing a trailer, it’s important to make sure you’re aware of your surroundings. To help you stay aware of other vehicles on the road, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is equipped with Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection. This technology will monitor your sides to let you know when another car is riding alongside you.

To make sure you know you’re not drifting into the next lane, you’ll want to have the help of the available LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning system. With this technology, your vehicle will warn you if you’re starting to go into the next lane without using your turn signal. If you don’t adjust your steering, your vehicle can automatically correct it to get you back in your intended lane.
