Jeep Grand Cherokee
It’s Groundhog’s Day for the Grand Cherokee! Several years ago, there was a diesel version and this year, it’s back! The 3.0L V6 produces only 240 horsepower but it has an impressive 420 lbs.-ft. of torque. This diesel can tow up to 7400 pounds (3356 kilos). A 290-hp 3.6L V6 Pentastar is also available, as is the powerful 360-hp 5.7L V8. Oh, and don’t forget about the sporty SRT8 and its 470 horsepower.
