If you’re shopping for a capable, refined midsize SUV near Lincoln, the Jeep® Grand Cherokee and the Ford Explorer are likely on your radar. Both are strong contenders, but when you compare them side by side, one SUV consistently pulls ahead. Here’s a closer look at how these two stack up—and why the Grand Cherokee is the clear choice for drivers who demand more.
The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee offers a best-in-class maximum towing capacity of 6,200 pounds, while the Ford Explorer falls short at 5,000 pounds. For those who plan to haul a boat, camper, or trailer on weekend getaways near Omaha, that 1,200-pound advantage is impossible to ignore. When capability counts, the Grand Cherokee delivers.
While the Explorer can go off-road, it’s not built to tackle tough terrain like the Grand Cherokee is. In addition to best-in-class ground clearance and a best-in-class departure angle, the Grand Cherokee offers the following features to give it a decisive off-road edge:
The 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee arrives with a bold midcycle refresh that makes a strong first impression on Seward roads. Updates include an all-new, sleeker grille design that retains the iconic vertical slots while adding a more three-dimensional, sophisticated look. Redesigned front air intakes and updated lighting elements round out the exterior refresh, giving the Grand Cherokee a more modern, premium presence inside and out.
When it comes to in-cabin technology, the 2026 Jeep Grand Cherokee once again raises the bar. The Grand Cherokee offers a class-exclusive Front Passenger Interactive Touchscreen Display, giving the front passenger their own screen to control entertainment, navigation, and more. Combined with a standard 12.3-inch infotainment system and available built-in navigation (no subscription required), the Grand Cherokee delivers a tech-forward experience that keeps everyone in the vehicle connected and entertained.
