Where each one leads
Jeep Grand Cherokee
- Fewer Jeep Grand Cherokee cars in the Netherlands carry an illogical odometer record (9.4% against 15.6%).
- NHTSA rates the 2027 Jeep Grand Cherokee at 5 of 5 stars, the 2027 Toyota Land Cruiser at 4.
Toyota Land Cruiser
- On Canada's official test the most frugal 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser uses 10.1 l/100 km, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 11.3.
- New Toyota Land Cruiser cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 250 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 271 for the Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2022.
Too close to call: MOT pass rate against cars of the same age; new York safety inspections failed, against cars of the same year.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
