Engine Performance - 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee
In comparing the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Ford Explorer motor options, you will easily understand why Jeep is the best choice if you prefer a more powerful motor or even a more fuel efficient one. The Jeep Grand Cherokee in its largest motor-size trim features a monstrous 6.4L 8cy motor and the Ford Explorer in its largest motor version features a 3.5L 6cy turbo engine. The Jeep Grand Cherokee features sheer power measured at 475 hp @ 6000 rpm and the Ford Explorer is only able to reach 365 hp @ 5500 rpm. The Jeep Grand Cherokee also outperforms the Ford Explorer in the category of engine torque since it can reach up to 470 ft-lbs. @ 4300 rpm and the Ford Explorer features considerably less horsepower measured at 350 ft-lbs. @ 3500 rpm.
Now, the Jeep Grand Cherokee's second largest engine size option is a similarly sized option to the Ford Explorer with a 3.6L 6cyl engine that despite its slightly larger engine displacement, the Jeep Grand Cherokee's second largest motor size trim is 17% more fuel efficient than the Ford Explorer. Between these two American SUV's, the Jeep Grand Cherokee undoubtedly has the best motor performance options no matter if you prefer amazing power or a more fuel efficient motor.
Fuel Economy and Maximum Driving Range - Jeep Grand Cherokee
Despite the fact that both the two top-sized motor versions of the Jeep Grand Cherokee feature a longer driving range than the largest motor-sized Ford Explorer, due to the Jeep Grand Cherokee's 32% larger fuel tank, the second motor-sized largest Jeep Grand Cherokee features a significant advantage in highway fuel economy as well as when considering city driving fuel economy. The 6-cylinder Jeep Grand Cherokee is nearly 17% more fuel efficient than the Ford Explorer when considering combined fuel economy.
