2020 Jeep® Grand Cherokee Off-Road Features | Owego, NY

Don’t let its premium style fool you — the 2020 Jeep® Grand Cherokee is at home on rocky hills and muddy trails. Opt for the rugged Grand Cherokee Trailhawk® trim or a package of advanced features to unlock this midsize SUV’s outstanding off-road capabilities.

Advanced 4x4 Systems

For the 2020 Jeep® Grand Cherokee, off-road dominance begins with the SUV’s available 4x4 systems. Quadra-Trac I® full-time single-speed 4x4 is the entry-level option. Quadra-Trac II® upgrades with a two-speed transfer case and Hill Descent Control. Quadra-Drive® II adds a rear electronic limited slip differential and can direct all the engine’s torque to a single wheel to maintain traction in extreme conditions. To help you monitor off-road settings and information, all Grand Cherokee 4x4 models come with Off-Road Pages technology that you can access via the touch screen. 

Trail Rated® Toughness

For the best off-road performance in New York’s Southern Tier, you’ll want a Trail Rated® Grand Cherokee. To earn this badge, a Jeep® vehicle must prove its capability via rigorous testing in five different categories: traction, water fording, maneuverability, articulation, and ground clearance.

In the Grand Cherokee lineup, the Trailhawk® has earned a Trail Rated® designation. So have models equipped with the All-Weather Trail Rated® Package and the Off-Road Adventure II Package.

All-Weather Trail Rated® Package

Available on the Grand Cherokee Laredo trim, the All Weather Trail Rated® Package provides an array of key features for off-road adventure. Along with Quadra-Trac II® 4x4, this package includes all-terrain tires; tow hooks; and skid plates that protect the suspension, fuel tank, and other vulnerable points. It also comes with the Selec-Terrain® Traction Control System, which offers special settings for driving on snow, sand, mud, and rock.

Off-Road Adventure II Package

The Off-Road Adventure II Package is available on the Grand Cherokee Limited and Overland trims, or you can opt for the Trailhawk® trim and receive all its features included. This package builds on the All Weather Trail Rated® Package, adding Quadra-Drive II® 4x4 and a Quadra-Lift® air suspension system that enables greater ground clearance. You’ll also get Selec-Speed® Control, a system that adjusts the throttle to help you manage off-road hill ascents and descents.
