Searching for a small and agile SUV with serious 4×4 capability? There are a few clear leaders in this specialized segment, and they include the Jeep Cherokee and the Subaru Outback. As you may already know, Jeep SUVs offer pioneering four-wheel drive technology to tackle an incredible range of off-road activities—including water fording and rock crawling.
All Subaru models come standard with a 4×4 drivetrain, but when you compare the Outback vs. Cherokee head-to-head, it’s clear that the Outback simply can’t match the Cherokee’s all-terrain prowess on the Brattleboro area’s best off-road trails! Get the details below, and then apply for financing online when you’re ready to move forward with a new Cherokee lease or finance deal.
Both models offer a trim that’s focused on off-road capability—the Subaru Outback Wilderness CVT and the Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk 4×4—but even here, you’ll see that the latter comes out on top. The Cherokee’s available 271-hp, 3.2L V6 engine upgrade generates more power than the Outback’s 260-hp, 2.4L 4-cylinder upgrade.
A closer look at each model’s off-road technology reveals a greater degree of difference: with its extensive suite of specially-designed off-roading features, the Cherokee is on an entirely different level. See below for just a few of the highlights you can expect from the Trailhawk®.
If you’d prefer to trade off some capability for cargo space, the Subaru Outback might be a better fit. While both models can comfortably accommodate five passengers and offer similar headroom and legroom, the Outback’s large cargo area is an advantage if you’re taking a paved route to your favorite Swanzey-area camping spots.
All that said, if you’re planning on some long road trips, the 10+ extra cubic feet of passenger space inside the Cherokee could make for a more comfortable ride. Here’s how these key Subaru Outback vs. Jeep Cherokee specs compare:
If there’s limited parking space or lots of traffic where you live and work in Walpole, you’ll want to compare the Outback vs. Cherokee exterior design and dimensions. As noted above, both models feature enhancements for better off-road performance, like heightened ground clearance. A few differences to keep in mind include the Cherokee’s shorter length: because of its extra-large cargo hold, the Outback frame is nine inches longer. See the detailed measurements here:
