The Car Connection's Take

TCC’s Bottom Line

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

The 2020 Porsche Cayenne offers hybrid models, but fuel economy isn’t its best look. For that you’ll want to check out the new Taycan electric car.

TCC Likes

Loads of style after all these years
Plenty of powertrain options
Capable off-road Trailhawk

Performance, meet SUV
Sleek interior finally ditches the buttons
High level of personalization

TCC Dislikes

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

Big SUV with a penchant for fuel
Might be too stiff for some, even in its softest settings
Porsche excellence comes with Porsche pricing
