Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The name sounds odd, but the Touareg offers a comfortable ride and spirited performance—something we all can understand. Its 3.6-liter V-6 makes 280 hp and is mated to an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. The Touareg is large, comfortable, and solid—plus it’s equally at home both on and off the pavement. A standard touchscreen infotainment display is functional but dated; the optional adaptive cruise control and automated emergency braking, however, are well engineered and effective.

PROS
Comfortable, tech-laden interior
Active safety functions
3.5 tonne towing, real off-road ability
Ride on standard air suspension

CONS
No seven-seat option
Lacks a full-size spare tyre
Expensive for a Volkswagen

The 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee ranked #7 in Midsize SUVs. Currently the Jeep Grand Cherokee has a score of 8.4 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 64 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Potent engine lineup
Outstanding off-road capabilities
Upmarket cabin
Intuitive infotainment system

Cons
Less cargo space than most rivals

Before the ungodly Trackhawk arrived last year, the SRT was the ultimate high-performance Jeep. While it received mild upgrades for 2018—including the Signature Leather Wrapped Interior package that added new carbon-fiber trim, black exterior badging, and 20-inch satin carbon wheels—there are no updates for 2019.

Pros
Extraordinary acceleration,
aggressive exterior styling,
more practical than the Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT models.

Cons
Poor fuel economy,
steep price for a Jeep,
overshadowed by the bonkers-mad Trackhawk version.

Cons
Firm ride quality may disappoint, even with air suspension
