The Jeep Grand Cherokee (WJ) introduced a notable four-wheel-drive system option, offering drivers varying levels of control depending on terrain and driving conditions. This system provided a range of modes, from two-wheel drive for everyday paved roads to full four-wheel drive with low range gearing for challenging off-road situations. A defining feature was the ability to shift between these modes on-the-fly, enhancing both versatility and driver convenience.
