2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L vs 2021 Kia Telluride
The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L is an all-new Jeep that offers three rows of seating for up to seven passengers with a premium interior and impressive capability. Jeep gave it multiple engines and a variety of four-wheel-drive systems available. The 2021 Kia Telluride was introduced last year as their new three-row SUV. It has a wide range of trims, a beautiful interior, and the capability of all-wheel drive. Let’s take a closer look at these two SUVs to see which is the best.
2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L Power & Handling
The 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L comes with multiple four-wheel-drive systems as well as multiple engines. The class-exclusive Quadra-Lift Air Suspension with electronic adaptive damping will automatically lower the Grand Cherokee L at highway speeds, which helps drag. It can raise the vehicle if you are on the trail. With best-in-class available ground clearance, the Summit edition comes with 10.9 inches of clearance to ride over rocky terrain or deep snow. Depending on what your adventure demands, the Selec-Terrain Traction Management System’s five drive modes will get you through. The class-exclusive 5.7L V8 engine delivers a best-in-class maximum towing capacity of 7,200 pounds.
2021 Kia Telluride Power & Handling
The Telluride comes with a 3.8-liter V6 paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. This engine is a direct-injected aluminum-block engine that produces 291 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque on regular gasoline. Kia installed a start/stop system that is quite smooth and can easily be disabled by the driver with the touch of a button, which is puny compared to the Grand Cherokee L’s 357 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque. Kia’s front-wheel-drive system is standard on the Telluride with all-wheel drive as an upgrade. The Telluride offers drivers a tow rating of 5,000 pounds, which is sufficient to haul smaller ATVs or other small items. The Grand Cherokee L’s 7,200 pounds
