Both the F-Pace and the Grand Cherokee have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, crash mitigating brakes, daytime running lights, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems, rearview cameras, rear cross-path warning and available around view monitors.

The F-Pace comes with a full 5-year/60,000-mile basic warranty, which covers the entire truck and includes 24-hour roadside assistance. The Grand Cherokee’s 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty expires 2 years or 24,000 miles sooner.

The F-Pace has more powerful engines than the Grand Cherokee:

On the EPA test cycle the F-Pace gets better mileage than the Grand Cherokee running its gasoline engine:

Regardless of its engine, regenerative brakes improve the F-Pace’s fuel efficiency by converting inertia back into energy instead of wasting it. Jeep only offers a regenerative brake system on the Grand Cherokee 4xe.

Regardless of its engine, the F-Pace’s engine automatically turns off when the vehicle is stopped, saving fuel and reducing pollution. If the conditions warrant or the driver wishes, the system can be manually disabled at any time for the duration of a trip. Jeep only offers an automatic engine start/stop system on the Grand Cherokee V6/4xe.

The F-Pace has 2.9 gallons more fuel capacity than the Grand Cherokee 4xe Hybrid’s standard fuel tank (21.9 vs. 19 gallons), for longer range between fill-ups.

For better stopping power the F-Pace SVR’s front brake rotors are larger than those on the Grand Cherokee:

For better traction, the F-Pace has larger standard tires than the Grand Cherokee (255/55R19 vs. 245/70R17).

The F-Pace’s standard tires provide better handling because they have a lower 55 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Grand Cherokee Laredo’s standard 70 series tires. The F-Pace SVR’s optional 265/40R22 front and 295/35R22 rear tires have a lower 40 series front and 35 series rear profile than the Grand Cherokee Summit’s optional 45 series tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the F-Pace has standard 19-inch wheels. Smaller 17-inch wheels are standard on the Grand Cherokee Laredo. The F-Pace’s optional 22-inch wheels are larger than the 21-inch wheels optional on the Grand Cherokee Summit.

The Jaguar F-Pace may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 200 to 1150 pounds less than the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

The F-Pace is 6.6 inches shorter than the Grand Cherokee, making the F-Pace easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.

The F-Pace has a much higher standard payload capacity than the Grand Cherokee (1510 vs. 1243 lbs.).

The F-Pace has a much higher maximum payload capacity than the Grand Cherokee (1510 vs. 1283 lbs.).

The F-Pace’s front and rear power windows all open or close fully with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside the car. The Grand Cherokee’s standard rear power window switches have to be held the entire time to open them fully. Only its driver’s window closes automatically.

The F-Pace’s rain-sensitive wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically based on the amount of rainfall on the windshield. This allows the driver to concentrate on driving without constantly adjusting the wipers. The Grand Cherokee’s standard intermittent wipers change speed with vehicle speed, but can’t turn on and off or change speed based on changing rainfall.

Heated windshield washer nozzles are optional on the F-Pace to prevent washer fluid and nozzles from freezing and help continue to keep the windshield clear in sub-freezing temperatures. The Grand Cherokee doesn’t offer heated windshield washer nozzles.

To quickly and conveniently keep personal devices charged without cables tangling and wearing out, the Jaguar F-Pace has a standard wireless phone charging system (Qi) in the center console. Wireless charging costs extra on the Grand Cherokee.
