The Grand Cherokee has received more industry awards than any other vehicle in its class since it was introduced way back in the early 1990s. With the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee that is now available at Don White’s Timonium Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Jeep introduces an all-new platform that is more spacious and features the latest in technologies and amenities. The Grand Cherokee is so successful that when Ford reimagined the Explorer as a midsize SUV, it took a great deal of inspiration from Jeep. That makes a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs 2022 Ford Explorer comparison a rather interesting endeavor.

CloseThe Grand Cherokee got bigger. The Explorer got smaller, and these two vehicles are now closer in size that at any other point in their histories. The Grand Cherokee measures 193.5 inches in length, which is just a hair more than 16 feet. It has a 116.7-inch wheelbase and stands 8.4 inches off the ground. The height with no roof rails is 70.8 inches, and the without side mirrors is 77.5 inches. At 198.8 inches long—about 16.6 feet—the 2022 Ford Explorer is still the larger vehicle. It has a 119.1-inch wheelbase and stands 8.2 inches off the ground. Height is 70.2 inches, and width is 78.9 inches. Both vehicles feature alloy wheels. Jeep offers 17- to 21-inch wheels. Ford offers 18- to 21-inch wheels.
Seating options have always been among the biggest differences between these two vehicles, and that remains the case with a comparison of the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs 2022 Ford Explorer. Both are midsize SUVs, but the Grand Cherokee is a five-passenger vehicle. The Explorer, on the other hand, is a three-row vehicle that can seat either six or seven people. Since the Explorer is a larger vehicle, it is able to offer front and second-row legroom that is comparable to the Jeep. The third row affords about 32 inches, which is a tight fit for adults. This design decision also comes at the cost of dedicated cargo space. Jeep offers almost 38 cubic feet whereas Ford manages less than half that amount.
Both manufacturers give you the option of rear-wheel and four-wheel drive with their vehicles. Of course, if serious off-roading is what you are after, the Grand Cherokee is unparalleled in the class, and Jeep offers various advanced all-wheel drive systems. The Grand Cherokee has a standard V6 engine that makes 293 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. With the upper trim levels, consumers have the option of a V8 engine that makes 357 hp and 390 pound-feet. The 4xe hybrid powertrain is also available with most trim levels and makes 357 hp and 390 lb.-ft. Ford opts for a turbo four-cylinder for the 2022 Ford Explorer: 300 hp and 310 pound-feet. You do have the option of a V6—400 hp and 415 pound-feet—via the high-end models. Grand Cherokee towing exceeds 6,000 pounds. Ford Explorer towing tops out at about 5,600 pounds.
All Grand Cherokee models come with Uconnect 5, which is the latest, most advanced and most feature-rich infotainment system that Jeep has developed. Ford recently introduced SYNC 4, its latest infotainment system, but has oddly chosen the previous-generation SYNC 3 for the 2022 Ford Explorer. The base touchscreen in the Grand Cherokee is a bit larger. Jeep also offers a more robust standard driver-assistance package. The base model, for instance, features adaptive cruise control and rear parking sensors with automatic braking. Ford requires you to opt for the performance-oriented ST or one of the luxury trim levels before that equipment is included or even offered.
