Performance and Versatility Three powerful engines are available for this edition of the Grand Cherokee, and all are impressively powerful, with a 293-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 serving as the base option. Those looking for greater strength will love the 5.7-liter V8, as it lends the vehicle a best-in-class maximum towing capacity of 7,200 pounds, thanks to its 357-horsepower output.
