TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee impresses with style and performance, but lags behind in safety and fuel economy.

The 2020 Nissan Murano is stylish and sophisticated, but its powertrain and practicality leave something to be desired.

Plenty of powertrain options
Capable off-road Trailhawk

Stylish look
Supportive seats

TCC Dislikes

A $100,000 Jeep?
Lackluster efficiency
Subpar safety scores

Not particularly spacious
