Jeep Grand Cherokee vs Ford Explorer

Your choice of SUV has come down to two highly regarded options: the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. 2024 Ford Explorer. They both offer a similar amount of space, whether you have a car full of passengers while driving around Sandusky and Avon Lake, Ohio, or need to pack a variety of items in the back.

Plus, they have many premium and luxury options that can enhance your comfort and enjoyment every time you head out on the roads of Willard for a drive. It's now time to get a closer look at which one is truly the right SUV for you. Below, our Firelands Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR) team offers just that, so keep reading to learn more!

An Entertaining Ride for All
 

There's a lot of tech in these two SUVs, from advanced infotainment systems to driver-assistive safety features. However, there are a few more innovative features you can gain with the Grand Cherokee that will be especially useful for you and your passengers.

To go along with the center touchscreen, the 2024 Grand Cherokee also offers the available passenger screen. With it, your front-seat passenger can look up directions for you and send them right to the driver's display. Plus, if you also get the available rear-seat entertainment that has Amazon Fire TV, your front passenger can tune into various shows and movies.

They can listen to it through the wireless headphones so you can continue to listen to your own songs, podcasts, or audiobooks. You'll be able to hear it clearly and become immersed in the story or music thanks to the available 19-speaker premium McIntosh® sound system the Jeep Grand Cherokee offers. The Explorer offers up to an available 14-speaker sound system and doesn't have all the optional displays the Grand Cherokee has to keep passengers entertained.

Helping You Safely Get Around Each Day
 

While both SUVs have features that help mitigate and reduce the chances of a collision while driving, there are also a few safety technologies that, once again, only the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee offers.

One of those is available Night Vision. Using thermographic technology along with infrared sensors, this system can inform you of pedestrians and animals ahead as you drive at night. There's also available Drowsy Driver Detection. With this safety feature, your Grand Cherokee can recognize if you start to become fatigued when driving and alert you that it might be best to pull into a rest stop and take a break.

Then, to help with your commute around town each day, both SUVs will be able to detect vehicles and pedestrians in your path ahead. If you start to get too close, they'll even automatically engage the brakes. Only the Grand Cherokee, though, can also keep you alert to any bike riders sharing the road since it has Cyclist Detection.
Grand Cherokee vs Explorer: Capabilities
 

Both models offer smooth driving for your daily commuting needs. They can also provide the traction and control needed when the roads become icy or slippery and you have to drive somewhere.

If you and your friends or family enjoy spending time exploring the outdoors, the 2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee is better equipped for those journeys.

That's because this SUV can be customized, with three different 4X4 systems to choose from as well as the available Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System. Plus, it offers a maximum 7,200-pound towing capacity to take your dirt bikes, ATVs, or camper along with you. At most, the Explorer can tow 5,600 pounds.
