2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee / 2022 Nissan Pathfinder

2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. 2022 Nissan Pathfinder  

A legendary name in the adventurous SUV market, the Jeep Grand Cherokee can be considered a flagship of the Jeep lineup. With the 2022 Grand Cherokee, the framework of the SUV has been built on the innovations introduced with the Grand Cherokee L in the 2021 model year. This means drivers get to have their dependable SUV for everyday cruising or off-roading expeditions while appreciating the improvements to the vehicle. Compared to other SUVs designed for off-roading, like the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder, the legacy of the Jeep name is showcased with its superior performance and attention to detail.  

Performance 

The 3.6L V6 engine that is equipped as the standard powertrain option in the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee makes tackling off-roading and everyday adventures a satisfying experience. With 293 horsepower at its command, the Grand Cherokee effortlessly handles itself around any driving surface with surging bursts of speed. With the 284-hp 3.5L V6 engine in the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder, drivers will find the performance lacking compared to the Grand Cherokee. The Jeep pairs its engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission, while the Nissan is paired with a nine-speed automatic. A key difference between the two SUVs is the standard drivetrain that they ride on. Every 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee is fitted with the dependable 4x4 drive mode for confident handling all year round. Meanwhile, the Pathfinder comes with standard FWD, with 4WD being available on select trim levels as an upgrade. This means drivers of any Grand Cherokee get the benefit of reliable handling regardless of the trim level they choose.  

Safety Features 

While both SUVs offer plenty of driver-assistive features to assist their adventurous spirits, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee comes equipped with standard Adaptive Cruise Control for enjoyable and hassle-free highway driving. With appropriate attention placed on the road, this system will take the tiring elements of the highway ride away from the driver so they can enjoy their adventure. Add on the standard 4x4 AWD maneuverability of the Grand Cherokee, and the driver of the Jeep will find themselves confidently navigating any driving surface compared to the baseline Nissan Pathfinder.
