For better stopping power the Range Rover P550e/P530/SV’s front brake rotors are larger than those on the Grand Wagoneer L:

The Range Rover stops shorter than the Grand Wagoneer L:

The Range Rover’s standard tires provide better handling because they have a lower 50 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Grand Wagoneer L’s standard 55 series tires. The Range Rover’s optional tires have a lower 40 series profile than the Grand Wagoneer L’s optional 45 series tires.

For better ride, handling and brake cooling the Range Rover has standard 21-inch wheels. Smaller 20-inch wheels are standard on the Grand Wagoneer L. The Range Rover’s optional 23-inch wheels are larger than the 22-inch wheels optional on the Grand Wagoneer L.

The Range Rover offers active sway bars, which help keep it flat and controlled during cornering, but disconnect at lower speeds to smooth the ride and offer greater off-road suspension articulation. This helps keep the tires glued to the road on-road and off. The Grand Wagoneer L doesn’t offer an active sway bar system.

The front and rear suspension of the Range Rover uses air springs for a smoother, controlled ride than the Grand Wagoneer L, which uses coil springs. Air springs maintain proper ride height and ride more smoothly.

The Range Rover offers an available active suspension system, which counteracts cornering forces actively, limiting body roll and improving handling and stability. Jeep doesn’t offer an active suspension on the Grand Wagoneer L.

The Range Rover’s drift compensation steering can automatically compensate for road conditions which would cause the vehicle to drift from side to side, helping the driver to keep the vehicle straight more easily. The Grand Wagoneer L doesn’t offer drift compensation steering.

For better maneuverability, the Range Rover SWB’s turning circle is 6.3 feet tighter than the Grand Wagoneer L’s (35.9 feet vs. 42.2 feet). The Range Rover LWB’s turning circle is 4.3 feet tighter than the Grand Wagoneer L’s (37.9 feet vs. 42.2 feet).

For greater off-road capability the Range Rover SWB has a 3.2 inches greater minimum ground clearance than the Grand Wagoneer L (11.5 vs. 8.3 inches), allowing the Range Rover to travel over rougher terrain without being stopped or damaged. The Range Rover LWB’s minimum ground clearance is 1.6 inches higher than on the Grand Wagoneer L Air Suspension (11.6 vs. 10 inches).

The Range Rover SWB is 2 feet, 5.2 inches shorter than the Grand Wagoneer L, making the Range Rover easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.

Unibody construction lowers the Range Rover’s center of gravity significantly without reducing ground clearance. This contributes to better on the road handling and better off-road performance and stability. In addition, unibody construction makes the chassis stiffer, improving handling and reducing squeaks and rattles. The Grand Wagoneer L doesn’t use unibody construction, but a body-on-frame design.

Flexibility is maximized at the game, campground or a drive-in theatre in the Range Rover when its optional tailgating rear seats are deployed, allowing people to sit facing out of the tailgate. (Do not use while vehicle is in motion.) The Grand Wagoneer L doesn’t offer tailgating seats.

The Range Rover’s rear cargo window opens separately from the rest of the tailgate door to allow quicker loading of small packages. The Grand Wagoneer L’s rear cargo window doesn’t open.

The Range Rover’s standard towing capacity is much higher than the Grand Wagoneer L’s (7716 vs. 5770 pounds).

The Range Rover’s front and rear power windows all open or close with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside of the car.

The Grand Wagoneer L’s optional cornering lamps activate a lamp on the front corner when the turn signal is activated. The Range Rover’s optional adaptive cornering lights turn the actual headlight unit up to several degrees, depending on steering wheel angle and vehicle speed. This lights a significant distance into corners at any speed.

To better shield the driver and front passenger’s vision, the Range Rover offers optional dual-element sun visors that can block glare from two directions simultaneously. The Grand Wagoneer L doesn’t offer secondary sun visors.

The Land Rover Range Rover has power folding mirrors that offer unparalleled convenience while maneuvering in tight places or parked. With the mirrors folded it’s easier to walk past and help prevent parking damage. The mirrors can be quickly unfolded when the driver is ready to leave. Power folding mirrors costs extra on the Grand Wagoneer L.
