For the money, we think the 2017 Grand Cherokee SUV is Jeep’s best all-around vehicle. With models ranging from the most basic 2-wheel-drive (2WD) Laredo to the performance-oriented 475-horsepower SRT, and a tow rating up to 7,400 pounds, the Grand Cherokee offers something for everyone.
If off-road adventuring isn’t really your thing, you can find any number of front-wheel-drive, 5-passenger SUVs for less money than a loaded 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Need a third row? You’ll have to look to the Nissan Pathfinder, Honda Pilot or Ford Explorer.
