Comparing the Cherokee vs. Grand Cherokee price by trim level reveals that the compact Cherokee is more affordable across its lineup. However, if you want a larger SUV that can pull double-duty as a family vehicle and a rugged off-road performer, you’ll want to opt for the full-size Grand Cherokee.
The Cherokee is available in an off-road-ready Trailhawk® trim and can provide a standard towing capacity of 2,000 pounds. When equipped with the available Trailer-Tow Group Package, you can boost your Cherokee towing capacity to 4,500 pounds. This compact Jeep SUV also can provide an EPA-estimated 23 mpg city and 31 mpg highway.
The Grand Cherokee is not only the larger vehicle of the two, but it also offers a lineup of more powerful engines. The Grand Cherokee can provide a respectable 19 mpg city / 26 mpg highway, while delivering a towing capacity that starts at 3,500 pounds and tops out at 7,200 pounds, depending on the trim level you choose.
