What is the minimum ground clearance of the Grand Commander when fully loaded?
2 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of the Grand Commander when fully loaded is 213mm. The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest protruding part of the vehicle's chassis and the horizontal ground when the vehicle is fully loaded (with the maximum allowable load capacity). It reflects the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain without collision. The Grand Commander is a new large 7-seater SUV under GAC FCA Jeep and is the fourth domestically produced model of Jeep. In terms of appearance, the Grand Commander adopts a family-style design, appearing rugged yet majestic. Although it is an urban SUV, it also exudes an off-road vibe, not only with its imposing body size but also with its wheel design and overall styling that convey a sense of solidity.
I've been driving the Jeep Grand Commander for a while now, and its minimum ground clearance when fully loaded is approximately 201mm. This height is considered medium to high among SUVs. Even when fully loaded with passengers and luggage, the body doesn't sag much and can still easily handle bumpy roads. I remember during my last self-drive trip to the mountainous area, I didn't have to worry about scraping the chassis when climbing hills fully loaded - it's much better than regular sedans. However, it's important to regularly check tire wear as it can slightly affect the clearance value. For daily city driving, speed bumps are no problem at all, and it feels very solid to drive. I recommend having the technician measure the actual value during each maintenance service to ensure the suspension system is functioning properly and to avoid safety issues caused by excessively low clearance after loading - this is more reliable than just looking at the data. Overall, this design aspect of the Grand Commander is very practical, enhancing both the vehicle's durability and driving enjoyment.
