In the past twenty years hundreds of infants and young children have died after being left in vehicles, usually by accident. When turning the vehicle off, drivers of the Tahoe are reminded to check the back seat if they opened the rear door before starting out. The Grand Cherokee L doesn’t offer a back seat reminder.

The Tahoe has a standard front seat center airbag, which deploys between the driver and front passenger, protecting them from injuries caused by striking each other in serious side impacts. The Grand Cherokee L doesn’t offer front seat center airbags.

Both the Tahoe and the Grand Cherokee L have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, height adjustable front shoulder belts, plastic fuel tanks, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, rearview cameras, available all wheel drive, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, around view monitors and rear cross-path warning.

Warranty

The Tahoe’s corrosion warranty is 1 year longer than the Grand Cherokee L’s (6 vs. 5 years).

There are over 22 percent more Chevrolet dealers than there are Jeep dealers, which makes it easier should you ever need service under the Tahoe’s warranty.

Reliability

The Tahoe has a standard “limp home system” to keep drivers from being stranded if most or all of the engine’s coolant is lost. The engine will run on only half of its cylinders at a time, reduce its power and light a warning lamp on the dashboard so the driver can get to a service station for repairs. The Grand Cherokee L doesn’t offer a lost coolant limp home mode, so a coolant leak could strand you or seriously damage the truck’s engine.

To reliably power the ignition and other systems and to recharge the battery, the Tahoe has larger alternators than the Grand Cherokee L:

	Tahoe	Grand Cherokee L
Standard Alternator	220 amps	160 amps
Optional Alternator	250 amps	180 amps

The Tahoe High Country’s standard 6.2 V8 produces 63 more horsepower (420 vs. 357) and 70 lbs.-ft. more torque (460 vs. 390) than the Grand Cherokee L’s optional 5.7 V8.

			MPG
Tahoe
	RWD	3.0 Turbo 6-cyl. Diesel	21 city/28 hwy
	4x4	3.0 Turbo 6-cyl. Diesel	20 city/26 hwy
Grand Cherokee L
	RWD	3.6DOHCV6	19 city/26 hwy
	4x4	3.6DOHCV6	18 city/25 hwy

Regardless of its engine, the Tahoe’s engine automatically turns off when the vehicle is stopped, saving fuel and reducing pollution. (Start/Stop isn’t accounted in present EPA fuel mileage tests.) Jeep only offers an automatic engine start/stop system on the Grand Cherokee L V6.

The Tahoe has a gallon more fuel capacity than the Grand Cherokee L (24 vs. 23 gallons), for longer range between fill-ups.

Transmission

A 10-speed automatic is standard on the Chevrolet Tahoe, for better acceleration and lower engine speed on the highway. Only an eight-speed automatic is available for the Grand Cherokee L.

Tires and Wheels

For better traction, the Tahoe’s optional tires are larger than the largest tires available on the Grand Cherokee L (275/65R20 vs. 265/60R18).

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the Tahoe offers optional 22-inch wheels. The Grand Cherokee L’s largest wheels are only 21-inches.

The Chevrolet Tahoe’s wheels have 6 lugs for longer wheel bearing life, less chance of rotor warping and greater strength. The Jeep Grand Cherokee L only has 5 wheel lugs per wheel.

The Tahoe has a standard easy tire fill system. When inflating the tires, the vehicle’s integrated tire pressure sensors keep track of the pressure as the tires fill and tell the driver when the tires are inflated to the proper pressure. The Grand Cherokee L doesn’t offer vehicle monitored tire inflation.

The Tahoe has a standard full size spare so a flat doesn’t interrupt your trip. A full size spare costs extra on the Grand Cherokee L. Without the option you must depend on a temporary spare, which limits mileage and speed before replacement.

Second Seat Folded	122.9 cubic feet	84.6 cubic feet

Payload and Towing

The Tahoe has a much higher standard payload capacity than the Grand Cherokee L (1746 vs. 1380 lbs.).

The Tahoe has a much higher maximum payload capacity than the Grand Cherokee L (1834 vs. 1410 lbs.).

Ergonomics

The Tahoe’s front and rear power windows all open fully with one touch of the switches and its front windows also automatically close, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside the car. The Grand Cherokee L’s standard rear power window switches have to be held the entire time to open them fully. Only its driver’s window closes automatically.

The Tahoe’s rain-sensitive wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically based on the amount of rainfall on the windshield. This allows the driver to concentrate on driving without constantly adjusting the wipers. The Grand Cherokee L’s standard intermittent wipers change speed with vehicle speed, but can’t turn on and off or change speed based on changing rainfall.
