Off-Roading in BC, Canada with the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. the 2021 Kia Telluride
2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee

2021 Kia Telluride

BC’s great outdoors are yours to discover in the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The Trailhawk trim has been rigorously tested to ensure excellent traction, articulation, ground clearance, water fording, and manoeuvrability. It also boasts 27 cm (10.8”) of space below its undercarriage, and it can plow through water as deep as 50 cm (20”).
Plus, its Selec-Terrain Traction Management dial has Snow, Mud, Sand, Rock, or Automatic modes available to tackle any surface. All of this means it’s earned the Trail Rated badge from Jeep, which assures you of a seamless off-roading experience.
The 2021 Kia Telluride, however, only has Snow, Eco, Sport, and Comfort modes in its terrain management system; and its maximum ground clearance is just 20.3 cm (8”). It does not have a similar testing program to Jeep’s Trail Rated badge certification process. In fact, this SUV specifically recommends against driving in deep water or mud because that could damage the exhaust pipes.
The difference is clear.
