The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
6.8
6.7
4.8

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a balanced, appealing choice but the myriad engine and trim levels complicate the process. The 2023 Subaru Outback sports a fresh look but delivers the same capability and reputation for safety. As a backwoods exploration companion, the 2023 Toyota 4Runner excels. For any other use, shop its competition.
