Powertrain: The Heart of the Beast

At the core of the impressive performance of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe is its innovative powertrain. The 2.0L I4 Turbo PHEV engine harnesses the power of electricity and combustion to deliver a staggering 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. This potent combination provides ample power for tackling challenging terrains and offers an efficient solution for daily driving.

The electric component of this hybrid system isn’t just for show. With an estimated all-electric range of 40 kilometers, the Trailhawk 4xe allows for silent, emissions-free trail exploration, adding a new dimension to the off-road experience. This feature is handy for wildlife observation or simply enjoying the serenity of nature without the rumble of an engine.

Trail Rated® Badge: More Than Just a Symbol

The Trail Rated® badge on the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe is not merely a decorative element; it promises exceptional capability in five key areas: traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording.

Traction: Gripping the Earth

The Trailhawk 4xe comes equipped with one of the Jeep advanced 4x4 systems, ensuring power is distributed to the wheels that need it most. This intelligent system monitors road conditions and adjusts power delivery accordingly, providing optimal traction whether you’re crawling over rocks or navigating through muddy trails.

Ground Clearance: Rising Above Obstacles

With a ground clearance of up to 27.7 centimeters, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe gives you the confidence to tackle obstacles that would leave lesser vehicles stranded. This impressive clearance is complemented by best-in-class approach, departure, and breakover angles, allowing you to navigate steep inclines and declines without scraping the undercarriage.

Maneuverability: Precision in Tight Spots

Thanks to its optimized wheelbase and precise steering, the Trailhawk 4xe offers exceptional maneuverability. This feature allows drivers to confidently navigate through narrow trails, around tight bends, and past obstacles. The vehicle’s ability to turn in confined spaces is crucial when traversing challenging off-road routes.

Articulation: Keeping Wheels on the Ground

High levels of articulation are crucial for maintaining traction in uneven terrain. The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe suspension system allows maximum wheel articulation, ensuring that all four tires maintain contact with the ground as much as possible. This capability is essential for stability and control when crossing over rocks or navigating deeply rutted trails.

Water Fording: Crossing the Streams

One of the most impressive features of the Trailhawk 4xe is its water fording capability. With high air intakes and special water sealing, combined with the Jeep Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension System, this PHEV can ford through water up to 61 centimeters deep. This ability opens up a whole new world of trail possibilities, allowing you to confidently cross streams and shallow rivers.

Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension: Adapt to the Terrain

The Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension System is a game-changer for off-road enthusiasts. This system allows for adjustable ride height, providing up to 27.7 centimeters of ground clearance when needed. The ability to raise the vehicle not only improves off-road capability but also enhances approach, breakover, and departure angles.

In its highest setting, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe boasts:

  • An approach angle of 35.8 degrees

  • A breakover angle of 22.9 degrees

  • A departure angle of 30.2 degrees

These impressive figures allow the vehicle to tackle steep inclines and declines without the fear of damaging the front or rear bumpers or scraping the undercarriage on the crest of a hill.

Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System

The Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System is another feature that sets the Trailhawk 4xe apart. This system allows drivers to choose from five different terrain modes:

  • Auto: For everyday driving, automatically adjusting vehicle systems for optimal performance.

  • Sport: Enhancing on-road dynamics for a more engaging driving experience.

  • Rock: Optimizing the 4x4 system for low-speed rock crawling.

  • Snow: Adjusting traction settings for improved stability in snowy and icy conditions.

  • Mud/Sand: Calibrating the vehicle for optimal performance in loose, granular terrain.

By selecting the appropriate mode, drivers can ensure the vehicle’s systems are optimized for the specific terrain they’re tackling, enhancing capability and safety.

Sway Bar Disconnect: Maximize Articulation

A standout feature of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe is its electronic sway bar disconnect system. This innovative technology allows for increased wheel articulation when navigating extremely uneven terrain. By disconnecting the sway bar, the suspension can move more freely, keeping the tires in contact with the ground for maximum traction.

The beauty of this system is that it can be engaged or disengaged at the push of a button, allowing drivers to quickly adapt to changing trail conditions. It provides the stability needed for on-road driving and higher-speed off-road sections when engaged. When disengaged, it allows for the extreme articulation needed for rock crawling and navigating deeply rutted trails.

4xe Technology: Where Efficiency Meets Capability

The 4xe technology in the Trailhawk isn’t just about improved fuel efficiency; it enhances the vehicle’s off-road capability in several ways:

  • Instant Torque: The electric motor provides instant torque, invaluable for precise throttle control when rock crawling or navigating tricky obstacles.

  • Silent Operation: The ability to run on electric power alone allows for near-silent off-roading, enhancing the outdoor experience and minimizing disturbance to wildlife.

  • Extended Range: The hybrid system extends the vehicle’s range, allowing adventurers to explore further into the backcountry without worrying about fuel.

  • Regenerative Braking: This feature helps to recharge the battery and provides additional control when descending steep grades.

Advanced Off-Road Pages: Your Trail Command Center

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe comes equipped with Advanced Off-Road Pages, a feature that provides real-time performance data crucial for off-road driving. This system displays information such as:

  • Current terrain mode

  • Wheel articulation

  • Transmission temperature

  • Oil pressure

  • Pitch and roll angles

This information allows drivers to make informed decisions about vehicle positioning and driving technique, enhancing capability and safety on the trail.

Towing Capability: Adventure-Ready

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe doesn’t compromise utility despite its focus on off-road prowess. With a maximum towing capacity of 2,722 kilograms, it can haul boats, campers, or trailers loaded with off-road toys. This impressive towing capability ensures that the Trailhawk 4xe is not just a weekend warrior but a versatile vehicle ready for any adventure.

2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4Xe: The Ultimate Off-Road PHEV

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 4xe represents a new frontier in off-road vehicles. It successfully combines the efficiency and environmental benefits of a plug-in hybrid with the rugged capability that Jeep is renowned for. From its advanced 4xe powertrain to its trail-rated features like the Quadra-Lift® Air Suspension and Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System, every aspect of this vehicle has been designed with the serious off-road enthusiast in mind.

Whether you’re rock crawling in remote backcountry, fording streams, or simply navigating snowy roads, the Trailhawk 4xe provides the confidence and capability to tackle any terrain. It’s a vehicle that doesn’t ask you to choose between efficiency and capability – it delivers both in a package that’s as comfortable on city streets as on mountain trails.
