EV Drive Modes 

You can customize each ride with the available three E-Selec driving modes to tackle different adventures both on and off-road:

  • Hybrid Mode: It combines the torque from both the electric motors and the 2.0-litre turbocharged PHEV engine for optimum battery and engine power. You should switch to this mode when you need maximum fuel efficiency and performance.
  • Electric Mode: This is the perfect mode to drive on when you need zero-emission electric power. 
  • E-Save Mode: It activates the PHEV engine and reserves the electric energy when the battery reaches a minimum level or when you need more power on/off the road. 

All-Electric Range 

You can get a complete hybrid driving range of up to 761 km when you use a combination of the gasoline-fueled combustion engine, electric motors and lithium-ion battery. But when you choose to run on the electric mode, you get an all-electric driving range of up to 42 km with zero emissions. 

Quadra-Drive II 4×4 System 

Standard on Grand Cherokee 4xe Trailhawk, Summit and Summit Reserve, the Quadra-Drive II 4×4 system delivers optimized off-road and all-weather capabilities by delivering torque to all four wheels as required. It features an electronic limited-slip rear differential for maximum traction and to tackle challenging road surfaces and weather conditions.
