Performance Specs

When comparing the Grand Cherokee vs. Explorer, you’ll notice both models are available with advanced performance and capability.

This impressive capability includes the ability to ford up to 20 inches of water, while offering capable handling on snow, sand, mud, gravel, and more.

The Ford Explorer only comes standard with read wheel drive. However, there is an available four-wheel drive system option – Intelligent 4WD with Terrain Management System™. Features include:

  • Hill Descent Control ™
  • 180-degree camera with split-view and washer
  • AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control ™
  • LED Headlamps with Auto High Beams

When it comes to base engine the Ford Explorer simply cannot compete with the top-level Jeep Grand Cherokee. Under the hood of the base 2021 Explorer, you’ll find 2.3L EcoBoost 4-cylinder engine. When you compare the Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. Ford Explorer, the Grand Cherokee will benefit those looking for advanced power as it packs a standard 3.6L V6 engine.
