2022 Porsche Macan vs. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee

The 2022 Porsche Macan delivers superb handling with robust powertrains and the auto industry’s most advanced safety features. But how does it compare to the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee, an SUV praised for its handsome and rugged appearance, standardized safety gear and posh interior?

Design & Style

The Jeep Grand Cherokee seats 5 and offers three different powertrains. It also has three distinct all wheeled drive systems which can handle different driving requirements. Its newest features for this year include a dual row body frame as well as ambient lighting and standard leather seats in the Limited edition. Those that purchase Entertainment Group package will receive bigger ten inch touch displays.

The 2022 Porsche Macan also carries five and comes with three engine choices. Regardless of which one you select, the chassis is dynamic with exceptional handling. It has a sporty and well-proportioned exterior with adapted suspension, summer tires and rotors coated in tungsten carbide. Its latest features for this year include a revised central console, shift lever and steering wheel. It also has a torque vectoring differential and eleven inch touch displays now come standard on the S variant.

Technology & Safety

The Macan is equipped with the latest safety tech, which include lane departure alerts, automatic emergency brakes, adapted cruise control and numerous airbags. Its cabin conveniences include twelve volt outlets, wifi, USB ports and Apple CarPlay. Climate control is also available and the seats are powered and capable of being heated or cooled.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee comes with most of the features found in the Macan, along with lane management, pedestrian detection and semi-autonomous operation. Its cabin conveniences include a nineteen speaker sound system from McIntosh, ten inch touch displays, satellite radio from SiriusXM, and quilted leather seats with climate control and opened pore wooden trim.

Performance

Those that purchase the Jeep Grand Cherokee can get a turbo 4, 2 liter engine that can generate 375 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in under seven seconds. Those that purchase the Porsche Macan GTS will get a V6, dual turbo engine that can generate 434 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in 3.5 seconds.

The Bottom Line

Though both SUVs are evenly matched when it comes to seating capacity and safety features, the Porsche Macan has a significant performance advantage. And all wheel drive has not yet been standardized on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, and its V8 variant is also a bit thirsty when it comes to fuel. And it is these factors which make the Porsche Macan the winner.
