If you’re a Independence-area motorist in the market for a new SUV, then you’ve likely heard of two popular models: the Jeep Cherokee and the Ford Escape. They’re both rather nice vehicles, sporting lots of features and good bits of customization – but only one of them can claim a spot in your driveway/garage, so which will it be? Keep reading to learn more about the similarities and differences between these two hard-charging vehicles – and do be sure to reach out to us if you end up with any follow-up questions!
There’s no arguing that well-reviewed SUV brands like Ford and Jeep bring a lot to the table when it comes to performance and capability both on and off road. That being said, the 2022 Ford Escape’s many engine options and powertrain configurations just don’t quite match up to the power that’s provided by the 2022 Jeep Cherokee. This is one of those situations where both tools can get the job done – but one can get it done faster and just plain ol’ better.
There’s less selection in engine options for the Cherokee – two vs. the Escape’s three, but the 3.6L Pentastar V6 offered by the 2022 Cherokee outperforms anything the Escape has to give. Impressive figures for the Pentastar V6 engine include the 271 horsepower and 4,500-pound towing capacity (when properly equipped.) When it comes to the Ford Escape vs. Cherokee debate, most Blue Springs drivers will tell you that this one goes to the Cherokee for sure.
When it comes to the off-roading portion of deciding vis a vis Cherokee vs. Escape, it’s easy to assume upon Jeep’s legendary offroad pedigree. While that gets you to the same conclusion (Jeep being the superior off-road machine), we feel like the features and engineering that make the Cherokee so great off-road are worth talking about anyway.
The Cherokee features classic proprietary Jeep 4×4 technology, with clever additions like Hill Descent Control, selectable drive-modes, and Roll Stability Control as well. There’s no doubt that the 2022 Jeep Cherokee makes for one of the most versatile and sport-ready vehicles on the market today.
