2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Power & Handling
In the 2020 model year, the Grand Cherokee offers four engine options. We're going to start with the most powerful engine model. Under the hood of the Trackhawk, drivers will find a 6.2L supercharged V8 that cranks out 707 horsepower. The SRT trim level houses a 6.4L V8 that produces 475 horsepower. The third V8 engine, offered to multiple trim levels, is a 5.7L V8 that generates 360 horsepower. All three of these V8 engines are outfitted with standard four-wheel drive. The standard engine is a 3.6L V6 that produces 295 horsepower. This engine comes with rear-wheel drive but four-wheel drive is offered. An automatic eight-speed transmission is the match to all engines.
2020 Chevrolet Equinox Power & Handling
There are only two engines offered for the Equinox in the 2020 model year. The base engine is a 1.5L turbo four-cylinder that delivers 170 horsepower. Chevrolet pairs this engine with a 6-speaker sound system. The other engine option is a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder that delivers 252 horsepower. Chevrolet mates this engine with a 9-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard across all trims but all-wheel drive is offered for all trims except the L.
2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Features & Design
Drivers can choose from seven Grand Cherokee trim levels. The base model starts the lineup off with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, rear parking sensors, a 7-inch touchscreen with Uconnect, a 6-speaker sound system, dual-zone climate control, and a backup camera. The other trim levels add remote engine start, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, a power liftgate, dual-pane panoramic sunroof, noise-canceling technology, a premium Harman Kardon sound system, leather upholstery, and more. The Trailhawk trim level is geared for off-roading while the SRT and Trackhawk are ready to floor it with performance geared features.
