The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
6.5
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee impresses with style and performance, but lags behind in safety and fuel economy. The 2020 Land Rover Defender is a return to the U.S. for the boxy off-roader that helped start it all. This time with far more creature comforts.
