The 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee has a towing capacity of 3,500 to 7,200 lbs, a torque of 260 to 470 lb-ft, a payload of 1,396 to 1,955 lbs and a tongue weight of 350 to 720 lbs. Towing capacity is the weight that can be pulled behind a vehicle such as on a trailer. Torque is the amount of turning power that a car has. Payload is the weight that a vehicle can carry. The tongue weight is the downward force that the tongue of the trailer puts on the hitch. You should always be safe when towing such as doing safety checks before driving. Always check the tires, the brake lights and that the trailer is secured correctly. When driving stop sooner than normally and make wider turns.
