2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee Engine & Performance
Versatile capability enhances every exploration, errand, and weekend escape in the 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Each trim level is equipped with a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine that makes 293 horsepower. When properly equipped, the Grand Cherokee can tow up to 6,200 pounds. Paired with the standard eight-speed automatic transmission, the Grand Cherokee gets up to 19 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway with either a 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrain.
The legacy of robust Jeep 4x4 performance lives strong with the 2025 Grand Cherokee. Choose between three different 4x4 systems, including the Quadra-Trac I® full-time 4x4 system that always sends power to all four wheels, or two active torque distribution 4x4 systems. The available Quadra-Trac II® system actively monitors which wheels need torque and can actively distribute it as needed. Upgrading to the Quadra-Drive® II 4x4 takes this responsive torque distribution to the next level with the ability to send up to 100 percent of the available torque to the axle with traction. Plus, it elevates your off-road prowess with a 2:72:1 low-range ratio.
Quadra-Trac I is offered across most of the model lineup, while Quadra-Trac II is exclusively standard on the Overland model, and Quadra-Drive II is standard on the Summit and Summit Reserve trims.
