Off-Road Capabilities of the Jeep Grand Cherokee

The exceptional off-road performance of the Grand Cherokee lies in the magic of the Jeep Trailrated 4×4.

Each powertrain system includes a rear electronic limited-slip differential to give you superior control over the roads in Omaha

For those seeking to enhance the off-road capabilities of the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Trailhawk offers an adjustable air suspension that not only provides increased ground clearance but also features a disconnecting anti-roll bar to better conquer challenging terrains.

As for ground clearance, the Trailhawk offers the most when deploying its air suspension, reaching a maximum of 11.3 inches. You can see a breakdown of the different Grand Cherokee ground clearance below:

  • Jeep Grand Cherokee (Multi-Link Suspension): 8.4 inches
