2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk Review - Behold The HellJeep

It’s absurd.

That’s the word that kept flowing from pen to notepad as I tried to collect my thoughts on this 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. The thought of 707 supercharged horsepower in a midsized family SUV is nothing but absurd.

And yet, if you don’t mind getting friendly with both your neighborhood gas station owner and your local replacement tire shop over your ownership term, the Trackhawk is a compelling choice. Unless you relish anonymity.

MaintenanceCosts If you want a car in this category, you want interior space, comfort, predictability, and low running costs.That probably favors the RAV4 Hybrid, with second place going to the CR-V hybrid. The CR-V is a nicer-looking and nicer-feeling product, but it just has not proved quite as low-drama as the Toyota.The RAV4 Prime is a compelling car but it's extremely expensive and still hard to get, and the regular hybrids are a better value.There's no reason to choose the non-hybrid of either one. You get higher running costs and less refinement for no benefit.
Aaron Id lean towards the rav4. The crv1.5 turbo has had issues. The rav 4 has both port and direct injection, no cvt. Also the Toyota hybrid systems have been super stout
Jeff My wife owned a 2013 AWD CRV since new it has been trouble free but I am not a fan of turbos so I would lean toward the Rav 4. If I were getting a hybrid it definitely would be a Rav 4 with Toyota's hybrid system being the best. Honestly you could not go wrong with either a CRV or a Rav 4. My third choice would be a Mazda.
3-On-The-Tree We like our 2021 Rav4 non hybrid.
Vatchy FSD never has been so what is with the hype about robo-taxis? You would need the first in order for the second to work.
