2021 Ford Bronco vs 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee

The new Ford Bronco is the most highly anticipated off-road SUV this year, but Jeep still has a great deal of authority in the market. With interest in off-road vehicles on the increase, both automakers are all in on this rivalry.

Here we unwrap some of the different reasons our customers at Akins Ford might find themselves more drawn to the 2021 Ford Bronco or the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee for off-roading this year. And if you like what you see, you can find both in our inventory here at Akins Ford.

2021 Ford Bronco Advantages

If you’re looking for the most talented off-roader, the 2021 Ford Bronco wins this showdown without question. Best-in-class ground clearance, suspension travel, and crawl ratio numbers conspire to make the SUV an undeniable leader in the ranks for midsize all-terrain SUVs. It has a body-on-frame platform, a removable roof and doors, and two highly capable 4x4 systems that put it more on par with the legendary Jeep Wrangler SUV.  

2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Advantages

Between the two, the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a higher maximum towing capacity, brawnier engines, and a more luxurious cabin feel. It may not crawl over boulders quite as well as the 2021 Bronco, but its off-road credentials are nothing to scoff at. Generous ground clearance and several available 4x4 systems allow it to take on trails that more mainstream SUVs dare not tread. The Grand Cherokee’s unibody design gives it remarkably civilized handling on the pavement as well, giving it a nice mix of on- and off-road prowess.
