Looking for a three-row SUV that does it all? The 2025 Chevrolet Traverse and 2025 Jeep Grand Cherokee both aim to meet your family’s needs – but only one gives you more space, smarter tech, and everyday confidence without making you climb the trim ladder. At Jim Taylor Chevrolet in Rayville, the all-new Traverse stands out as the clear favorite for Louisiana drivers who want comfort, capability, and value in one polished package.
The Traverse doesn’t just fit the whole crew – it makes them comfortable. All trims come with three roomy rows, clever storage, and premium design touches. Whether you’re packing up for a road trip or school drop-off, the Traverse’s class-leading cargo space means you won’t have to pick and choose what stays behind.
The Grand Cherokee offers a more upscale cabin vibe, and you can opt for third-row seating with the Grand Cherokee L. But it doesn’t match the Traverse in overall space, and the back row feels more cramped, especially for taller passengers or growing kids.

With a powerful 2.5-liter turbo engine delivering 328 horsepower and 326 lb-ft of torque, the Traverse brings muscle to your everyday drive. All trims include trailering equipment, so you’re road trip-ready without shelling out for extra add-ons.
The Grand Cherokee’s 3.6-liter V6 performs well, and it does offer slightly more towing capacity, though only on higher trims. The Traverse balances strong performance with smarter packaging across the lineup.

Chevy didn’t hold back on tech for the 2025 Traverse. Every trim includes a giant 17.7-inch touchscreen paired with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. It’s easy to use, crystal clear, and puts your favorite apps front and center.
Jeep’s Uconnect infotainment system is sleek and quick, but unless you step up to a higher trim, you won’t get the same screen size or connectivity perks. The Traverse gives you more from the start.

Peace of mind comes built into every Traverse. Chevy Safety Assist is included across the board, packing in features like forward collision warning, lane keep assist, and pedestrian detection. Super Cruise™ hands-free driving is also available on select trims.
The Grand Cherokee offers a comprehensive safety suite as well, but top-tier features like night vision and hands-free driving are locked behind premium trim levels.
