2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee vs 2018 Honda Pilot near Ocean City, NJThere are so many fantastic SUVs on the market, it can be really hard to narrow it done to which model will meet all your wants and needs. That's why we have created this comparison review! We believe that there are two models that stand out among the rest: the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2018 Honda Pilot. The Grand Cherokee is the flagship Jeep that offers an incredible trim level and engine lineup and off-roading capabilities! New updates for the 2018 model year include the addition of the brand new Trackhawk model and other infotainment improvements. The Honda Pilot is great for larger families, offering three rows of seating, and is created with impressive style both inside and out. Sadly there are no changes to the Pilot for the 2018 model year. |
