"While maintaining its reputation for off-road prowess with the Grand Cherokee, Jeep also wants to make it competitive in the luxury SUV segment, putting it up against the Lexus RX 350. That is a tall order, but from our initial look at the cabin, Jeep is off to a good start."
"What we found more interesting were some of the driver assistance technologies as we drove the Grand Cherokee down the freeway. This is decidedly a new era for Jeep."
"Where many SUVs can feel like dumb crates with unpredictable handling, Jeep kept the Grand Cherokee tight, with good damping response when hitting the inevitable bumps in the road."
"The most amazing challenge of the day was a steep, 100-yard descent on a loose dirt road. Watching others in our party take this descent convinced us that the Grand Cherokee has few equals in the luxury SUV segment for off-road prowess."
