Whether you’re heading to Silver Lake for the weekend or just moving gear across town, the Grand Cherokee’s towing power has your back. And if you’re in the market for one, we’d love to help you out right here at Pinckney Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. Stick with us—we’re about to dive into everything this SUV can do.
How Much Can the Grand Cherokee Tow?
You might be surprised just how much muscle is hiding behind the Grand Cherokee’s sleek and refined exterior. Depending on the engine, this SUV can tow anywhere from 6,200 pounds with the standard 3.6L Pentastar V6 to an impressive 7,200 pounds when equipped with the available 5.7L HEMI V8. That’s serious capability—enough to handle a 25-foot camper, a dual-axle utility trailer, or even a small livestock hauler. The Grand Cherokee also features a high-strength steel frame and a Class IV receiver hitch with integrated wiring, which means it’s not just about power—it’s built from the ground up to tow safely and reliably. No cutting corners here.
Does the Grand Cherokee Handle Well While Towing?
Definitely—and that’s one of the reasons drivers love it. Jeep didn’t just slap a powerful engine under the hood and call it a day. The Grand Cherokee comes equipped with advanced technology that actively supports trailering, including Trailer Sway Control, which automatically adjusts brake pressure and engine torque to mitigate trailer sway. The available rear load-leveling suspension helps keep the vehicle balanced under heavy loads, and the optional Quadra-Lift Air Suspension System can raise or lower the SUV to provide better control while hitching up. Plus, with Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist, navigating Michigan’s rolling roads becomes a lot less stressful when you’ve got something in tow.
Built for More Than Just the Road
This SUV doesn’t stop at towing—it’s designed to take you (and your gear) pretty much anywhere. The Grand Cherokee offers three available 4×4 systems, including the legendary Quadra-Drive II, which can transfer up to 100% of torque to a single rear wheel if needed. That means even if you’re towing your snowmobiles to the cabin during a January whiteout or pulling your boat out of a muddy launch on a summer weekend, the Grand Cherokee keeps you moving with confidence. Pair that with up to 11.3 inches of ground clearance, water fording up to 24 inches, and Selec-Terrain® drive modes, and you’ve got an SUV that’s just as tough as it is versatile.
