Power and Performance
A critical area that is obviously important to look at when exploring these two SUVs is the power and performance offered by each. On the face, both SUVs provide you with very similar performance, each coming with a 3.6L V6 engine under the hood.
While this is the case, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L makes another engine available with the class-exclusive 5.7L V8 engine. Meanwhile, the Chevy SUV only offers its standard engine.
As such, the Jeep outclasses the Traverse in key areas, such as towing capacity. We’ll see that the Jeep Grand Cherokee L offers a maximum towing capacity of 7,200 pounds when properly configured, while the Chevy Traverse falls a bit short with a maximum towing capacity of 5,000 pounds.
Interior Comfort: Jeep Grand Cherokee L vs Chevy Traverse
Another important area to weigh is the cabin, as it will play an important role in determining your overall driving experience. Both the Grand Cherokee L and the Traverse come with third-row seating capabilities, equipping both as capable family vacation companions. Though, the Jeep may prove a bit more comfortable with its available Nappa leather-seating appointments. Conversely, the Chevy only offers available regular leather.
In terms of multimedia, you’ll find similar standard technology in each. The multimedia systems found in both the Jeep Grand Cherokee L and the Chevy Traverse offer you access to Bluetooth®, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™. So, you will have the ability to remain connected on the go from behind the wheel of either of these impressive SUVs.
Though, you may find these features are a bit easier to interface with inside of the Jeep Grand Cherokee L. This is thanks to the large infotainment screen that measures in at 8.4 inches, making it easy to see and interact with all of your features and functionalities. On the other hand, the screen inside the Traverse proves to be a little bit harder to use, measuring in at only seven inches.
